Instructions
-
Slow Cooker Chicken Place chicken breast in slow cooker with garlic salt and onion powder. Tip: You can also use rotisserie chicken to skip this step entirely.
-
Slow Cooker Chicken Cook on low for 2–3 hours until chicken is fork-tender and cooked through.
-
Slow Cooker Chicken Shred chicken with two forks directly in the slow cooker; set aside. Tip: The juices in the cooker keep the chicken moist — shred right before filling.
-
Chipotle Sauce Add cottage cheese, light mayo, chipotle peppers, garlic salt, black pepper, and honey to a blender.
-
Chipotle Sauce Add fat-free milk and blend on high until completely smooth and creamy. Tip: Blend a full 30 seconds — it should have no visible curds.
-
Chipotle Sauce Combine shredded chicken, chipotle sauce, shredded mozzarella, crumbled bacon, and fresh chives in a bowl.
-
Dough Combine self-rising flour, Greek yogurt, garlic salt, and Italian seasoning in a large bowl.
-
Dough Mix with your hands until a rough, clumpy dough forms. Tip: The dough will look shaggy at first — keep going.
-
Dough Knead the dough for 2–3 minutes on a lightly floured surface until smooth.
-
Dough Divide dough into 10 equal pieces and roll each into a thin circle, about 15 cm across. Tip: Thin dough = crispier hot pockets.
-
Assembly & Cooking Place a generous portion of chicken filling in the center of each dough circle.
-
Assembly & Cooking Fold the dough over the filling and pinch all edges together firmly to seal. Tip: Press edges twice — any gaps will split open when toasting.
-
Assembly & Cooking Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat; cook each hot pocket 3–4 minutes per side until golden.
-
Assembly & Cooking Cool completely, wrap individually in foil, and freeze for up to 4 weeks. Tip: Label with the date. Reheat from frozen: microwave 3–4 min wrapped in a damp paper towel.
