Ingredients
  

2 cups cooked chicken, shredded

1 cup cream cheese, softened

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

½ cup green onions, chopped

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon onion powder

1 teaspoon paprika

Salt and pepper to taste

1 package of refrigerated biscuit dough (8 biscuits)

1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)

Instructions
 

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, softened cream cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, chopped green onions, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix thoroughly until well combined.

      Roll out the biscuit dough on a floured surface and flatten each biscuit into a circle about ¼ inch thick.

        Place a generous scoop of the chicken filling onto the center of each dough circle.

          Fold the biscuit dough over the filling to create a half-moon shape and press the edges firmly to seal. You can use a fork to crimp the edges for an extra tight seal.

            Place the filled pockets on a greased baking sheet.

              Brush the tops of each pocket with the beaten egg to give them a golden finish while baking.

                Bake in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes or until golden brown and puffed.

                  Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving.
