Ingredients: 

  • For the dough:

  • 1 cup all purpose flour, plus more for dusting (5 oz)

  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder

  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

  • 1 cup Stonyfield non-fat Greek yogurt, not regular, drained if there’s any liquid

  • For the filling:

  • 8 ounces organic grilled chicken breast, sliced

  • 1/2 cup marinara sauce

  • For the egg wash:

  • 1 large egg

Instructions: 

  • In a medium bowl combine flour, baking powder and salt, whisk well.

  • Add yogurt and mix with a fork until well combined, it will look like small crumbles.

  • Lightly dust flour on a work surface and remove dough from the bowl, knead the dough a few times until smooth, no lumps. The dough will be tacky, but not sticky, about 20 turns (it should not leave dough on your hand when you pull away).

  • Preheat the oven 425F.

  • Line a sheet pan with a silicone mat. Assemble the rolls: Divide into 4 equal balls.

  • Sprinkle a work surface and rolling pin with flour and roll the dough out into thin rounds, 7in in diameter.

  • Spread 1 tbsp of marinara down the center of the circle in a strip, top with 1/2 cup of the chicken (2 oz) 1 tbsp more marinara sauce and 3 tbsp of cheese.

  • Fold the right side of the dough over the top of the chicken then repeat with the left side.

  • Brush the top with egg wash and sprinkle with sesame seeds. Bake until golden, 20 minutes.
