Step 1

In a bowl, combine chicken, chilies, onions, cheese, and seasonings. Mix well; chill until ready to use. Remove half of the pastry from the refrigerator at a time. On a lightly floured board, roll pastry to a 12x9 inch rectangle. Cut into 9 small rectangles. Place about 2 T of the filling across the center of each rectangle. Wet edges of pastry with water and roll pastry around filling. Crimp ends with a fork to seal. Repeat with remaining pastry and filling. Place, seam side down, on a lightly-greased baking sheet. Refrigerate until ready to heat. Bake at 425 for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown. Serve warm with salsa and sour cream. Yield: 18 appetizers or 6-8 main dish servings.
