"Note: read through the recipe completely before making these as there are a couple of advance steps (cooking the chicken, making the rolls). Much of it can be done in advance. I often make the filling a day or so ahead of time. Lately when I've made them, I've used a bit less dough for each little pillow; I weighed it tonight and it's about 2 ounces of dough flattened. Doing that, I got about 28 per batch - which means I can freeze half for another meal...."
