Fried BBQ Chicken Pouches

1. 1

   In a large bowl mix chicken, cheddar, onion and sauce together well.

2. 2

   If your chicken is particularly chunky, use a pastry cutter to mince everything down.

3. 3

   Lay out a few wrappers on a flat surface, making sure to keep the others covered so they dont dry out.

4. 4

   Drop a rounded teaspoon of chicken filling into the middle of each wrapper.

5. 5

   Brush all four sides of the wrapper with a little egg wash and bring the sides up around the chicken mixture to form a purse.

6. 6

   Squeeze the edges together so that they are sealed.

7. 7

   Continue until all chicken purses are finished.

8. 8

   Heat oil over medium high heat in a large, heavy, deep vessel such as a deep-sided cast iron skillet.

9. 9

   The oil should come no more than halfway up the sides, but also be able to submerge a purse in the oil.

10. 10

    Heat to 350 degrees F or until a piece of dough immediately sizzles when dropped in the oil.

11. 11

    If the oil starts to smoke, lower the heatits a little too hot.

    Drop each purse into the oil (no more than 5 at a time) and fry until golden brown.
