And these were a big hit indeed! We all loved the flaky deliciousness and the tasty innards. I made mine like a pocket while Stephanie made them more like rolls; either way you make them, make sure you double the recipe (they freeze really well and make a fast meal) because the as written didn't feed my little family--they just could not get enough!
I served with steak fries and barbecue dipping sauce and some carrots on the side.
BBQ Chicken Pockets Source: Stephanie Cooks
Ingredients:
1 tsp olive oil
6 ounces cooked chicken, diced
Salt/pepper
BBQ sauce
1 can crescent rolls
Cheddar cheese
Mozzarella cheese
Cilantro, optional
Directions:
- Preheat your oven to 400 degrees. Combine chicken and 2T BBQ sauce in a small skillet. Cook, stirring frequently, until warm and coated well. Set aside and keep warm.
- Form rectangles with the crescent roll dough by sealing two triangles together. Coat with BBQ sauce as thickly as you like (I wouldn't go too thick or they will be gooey).
- Place equal amounts of chicken on each rectangle. Top with cheeses.
- Form a pocket around the filling, making sure the filling can't escape through any holes. Place on a baking sheet, and bake in the preheated oven for about 12 minutes, until lovely and golden.
- Top with cilantro and enjoy!

Ooh, sounds good!
Do you cook them and then freeze them? What would be your reheating directions?
I tried freezing with the Suiza packets and they worked beautifully, so I imagine these would too.
Let them cool all the way then freeze in an airtight container (I used gallon sized Ziploc bags). Warm at 375 about 20 minutes or until cooked through--cover with foil!
