Air Fryer BBQ Chicken Empanadas
35 MIN
In The Refrigerated Meat Case
Made With:
PERDUE® SHORT CUTS® Carved Chicken Breast, Original Roasted (9 oz.)
PREP TIME: 30min COOK TIME: 1hr
Serves 6 to 8
2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
10 ounces garlic and herb cheese
1 cup artichoke hearts, finely chopped
1/2 cup Parmesan cheese
1 (16-ounce) can refrigerated pizza dough
Step 1
Combine
Preheat oven to 350°F. In a bowl, combine the shredded chicken, shredded mozzarella, garlic-herb cheese, chopped artichokes and Parmesan cheese. Mix well.
Step 2
Cut
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the pizza dough into a 12”x 18” rectangle. With a pizza cutter or a sharp knife, cut the dough into 16 (3”x 4”) rectangles. Dollop a heaping tablespoon of chicken mixture onto each dough rectangle. Leave one rectangle without the spread and set aside. Press the mixture to evenly cover each rectangle.
Step 3
Stack
Spray a 9”x 5” loaf pan with cooking spray and prop it up vertically. Use a spatula to layer the rectangles into stacks of 3 or 4. Place the stacked layers into the loaf pan, chicken side up. Top with the dough rectangle without spread that you had set aside. Sit the pan horizontally.
Step 4
Bake
Bake the loaf for 1 hour, or until well browned and cooked through. Let cool for 5 minutes and then turn the loaf out of the pan. Serve while warm and let people peel off their slices.
TIP
TIP: The inside stays just a bit doughy due to the moisture in the chicken, so make sure to cook it until the top begins to brown.
