I have had this recipe bookmarked for quite some time. I found it at 3 Sides of Crazy and thought that it looked fun and tasty. Tamy has her recipe posted HERE and I will also post it below.Here is my salsa, guacamole, green onions, chicken and cheese.
I did find this recipe a little time consuming, probably because I had to make the guacamole, shred the chicken and roll out the biscuits before stuffing. Good thing that Ben agreed to help me or it would have taken me much longer.Here are the turnovers almost ready to be cooked.
And the finished product!
Chicken Turnovers
2 cups shredded cooked chicken (I used a rotissiere chicken)
1 large bunch green onions, chopped
1/4 cup salsa
1/4 cup guacamole (see notes below)
1 can refrigerator biscuits, grand size
1 cup shredded shredded cheddar cheese
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
Combine in large bowl the salsa, guacamole, green onions, chicken and cheese.
On a floured board between wax paper layers, roll out each biscuit to about double the original size. Fill each biscuit with chicken mixture and fold over into a moon shape. Press the edges firmly to seal. Bake 20 minutes or until golden brown. Serve with a side of sour cream and salsa for dipping.
For the guacamole, I searched for a simple one at FoodGawkr. I love this site! I used this recipe and made some modifications, such as halving the recipe. I also used regular salt instead of Kosher. It was good...but I prefer my own recipe that includes jalapenos and cheddar cheese. But for the turnovers and this recipe it was perfect.
