Ingredients

Steps

  • 1
    Heat oven to 375°F. Generously spray 4 regular-size muffin cups with cooking spray. In medium bowl, mix chicken, tomato, onion and mayonnaise. Stir in 1/4 cup of the cheese.
  • 2
    On large cutting board, unroll dough and separate into two 6x4-inch rectangles. Place one rectangle next to the other to create an 8x6-inch rectangle; pinch together seams.
  • 3
    Spread chicken mixture evenly over dough, leaving about 1/2 inch uncovered on all sides. Starting with short side, roll up dough toward opposite edge; pinch seam to seal tightly.
  • 4
    Using sharp knife, cut roll into 4 equal slices; place cut side down in muffin cups. Top with remaining cheese.
  • 5
    Bake 16 to 20 minutes or until dough is deep golden brown and baked through. Cool 5 minutes in pan; remove from pan with metal spatula.

Tips from the Pillsbury Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Top with chopped fresh cilantro leaves for a fresh pop of green and even more southwest flavor.
  • tip 2
    Serve with additional spicy mayonnaise for dipping.
  • tip 3
    Can’t take the heat? Substitute aioli (garlicky mayonnaise) for the spicy mayonnaise.
