3 cups finely cooked chicken (or canned)
1 (4 ounce) can diced green chiles
1/2 cup finely chopped green onions
1 1/2 cups (6 ounces) shredded sharp cheddar cheese
1 teaspoon hot pepper sauce
1 teaspoon garlic salt

In a bowl, combine chicken, chiles, onions, cheese, and seasonings. Mix well;

Remove half of the pastry from the refrigerator at a time. On a lightly floured
board, roll to a 9 x 12-inch rectangle. Cut into 9 small rectangles. Place about
2 tablespoons filling across the center of each rectangle. Wet edges of pastry
around filling. Crimp ends with a fork to seal. Repeat with remaining pastry
and filling. Place, seam side down, on a lightly greased baking sheet. Refrigerate
until ready to heat.

Serve warm with salsa and guacamole.
