Ingredients
2 c. store-bought roasted chicken, skin removed and shredded
1 c. broccoli florets, cut into ½” pieces
1/4 c. green onion, thinly sliced on an angle
6 oz. Velveeta, cut into 1/4” cubes
1/4 c. hot sauce
2 tbsp. honey
1/4 tsp. freshly ground black pepper
All-purpose flour, for rolling dough
1 (14.1-oz.) package store-bought pie crust, 2 crusts
1 egg beaten with 1 tbsp. water (for egg wash)
2 tbsp. salt-free everything bagel seasoning
Preparation
Step 1Preheat oven to 400˚F and line 2 sheet trays with parchment paper. In a large bowl, add chicken, broccoli, green onion, Velveeta, hot sauce, honey, and pepper and toss until combined.Step 2On a lightly floured work surface, roll out dough until it’s about 1/2" thick. Using a 4” biscuit cutter, cut out 10 rounds from each crust, re-rolling the scraps if necessary. Spoon a heaping tablespoon of the filling onto one side of each circle, then fold it in half to create a semicircle.Step 3Press down around the edges of the dough with your finger, then press down with a fork along the edges to seal. Repeat process with remaining dough. Lightly brush with egg wash and place on sheet trays, leaving about 1” in between each.Step 4Using a paring knife, slice 3 vents in the top of each hand pie. Sprinkle with everything bagel seasoning and bake for 15 to 20 minutes, until puffed and golden. Remove from oven, let cool for 3 to 5 minutes and serve warm or at room temperature.
