# Components:
→ Chicken
01 - 2 cups cooked chicken breast, finely chopped or shredded
→ Seasonings & Sauce
02 - 2 tablespoons ranch seasoning mix
03 - 2 tablespoons cream cheese, softened
04 - 1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese
05 - 2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives (optional)
→ Biscuit Dough
06 - 1 can (16 ounces) refrigerated biscuit dough (8 large biscuits)
→ Finishing
07 - 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
08 - 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
# Directions:
01 - Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
02 - In a mixing bowl, combine chopped chicken breast, ranch seasoning, cream cheese, cheddar cheese, and chives until thoroughly incorporated.
03 - Separate biscuit dough into 8 pieces; cut each biscuit into 3 equal portions to create 24 pieces. Flatten each portion into a 2-inch wide disk.
04 - Spoon a heaping teaspoon of chicken mixture onto the center of each dough disk. Fold edges over the filling and pinch to seal thoroughly, forming a ball.
05 - Place each filled popper seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet, spaced evenly.
06 - In a small bowl, combine melted butter with garlic powder. Brush each popper generously with the garlic butter mixture.
07 - Transfer baking sheet to oven and bake for 16–18 minutes, or until poppers are golden brown.
08 - Remove from oven and allow to cool for 5 minutes before serving warm.
