Buffalo Chicken Bites

For those who love little bites with chicken. These are such an awesome snack, which could be a meal in itself if you have enough of them and it can making with other fillings such a steak, provolone, sautéed peppers and onions for Philly Cheese steak Bites... or even pepperoni, Italian sausage, mozzarella and mushrooms for Pizza Bites. The filling ideas are endless!

Ingredients:

1       cup                finely diced cooked chicken breast
   1/2 cup                crumbled blue cheese
2       tablespoons   shredded cheddar cheese
   1/4 cup                hot sauce
4       tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled

2 1/4 teaspoons rapid rise dry yeast

2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 cup warm milk

2 1/2 cups flour

Preparation:

Make the buffalo chicken mixture on this way: in a small bowl, combine the chicken, blue cheese, cheddar cheese, melted butter and hot sauce. Set aside.

Dough: In a 1-cup measuring cup, heat the milk and then add the 2 tablespoons brown sugar; stir into warm milk until dissolved. Pour the milk in bowl and add 2 1/2 cups flour and yeast and knead until a soft dough forms, adding up to 1/2 cup additional flour, a little at a time, if necessary. Allow the dough to knead for 5-7 minutes. Turn out dough onto a lightly floured surface and gently knead a few times to form a smooth ball. Place dough into a clean bowl that is lightly oiled. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a draft-free place at warm room temperature until doubled and bubbles appear on surface, about 2 hours.

Preheat oven to 400°F - 200ºC with rack in the middle of the oven. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.

Turn out dough onto a lightly floured surface and cut into 4 equal pieces. Lightly dust your hands with flour, then gently roll and stretch 1 piece of dough to form a 12-inch-long rope. Flatten dough and arrange so a long side is nearest you, then roll out to a roughly 12- by 4-inch rectangle with a lightly floured rolling pin. Gently press one fourth of buffalo chicken mixture into lower third of rectangle, leaving a 1/2-inch border along bottom edge. Stretch bottom edge of dough up over filling and press tightly to seal, and then roll up as tightly as possible to form a rope. Cut rope into 12 pieces and transfer to a sheet pan. Make 3 more ropes with remaining dough, filling and cut into pieces, transferring to sheet pans. Let rest at room temperature, uncovered, 30 minutes (dough will rise slightly).

Bake buffalo chicken bites in the preheated oven for 5-7 minutes or until the tops are lightly browned. Remove from oven (some cheese may have melted out.) and brush tops with melted butter before serving (optional).

Zalogajcici sa piletinom

Za sve one koji vole zalogajcice sa piletinom. Ovo je odlicna uzina ali moze biti i obrok ako ima dovoljno, a moze se praviti i sa razlicitim punjenjem kao sto je junetina, provolone sir,kratko dinastanom paprikom i lukom za Philly Cheese steak Bites... ili cak kobasicom, Italianskom kobasicom, mozzarella sirom i pecurkama za Pizza Bites. Ideje za punjenje nemaju kraja!

Sastojci:

1       solja         fino iseckane obarene pilece grudi
   1/2 solje         izmrvljeni plavi sir
2       kasike       iseckan cheddar sir
   1/4 solje         ljuti sos
4       kasike     maslac, rastopljen i prohladjen

2 1/4 kasicice suvog kvasca

2 kasike braon secera
1 solja vruceg mleka

2 1/2 solje brasna

Priprema:

Napravite buffalo chicken mesavine na sledeci nacin: u malnju ciniju pomesati piletinu, plavi sir, cheddar sir, rastopljeni maslac i ljuti sos. Ostaviti na stranu.

Testo: u 1 solju – koja ce sluziti za meru, sipati zagrejano mleko i dodati 2 kasike braon secera: mesati dok se secer ne rastopi. Sipati zasladjeno mleko u ciniju i dodati 2 ½ solje brasna i kvasac pa zamesiti dok se ne dobije meko testo. Dodavati ½ solje brasna po malo ako je potrebno. Ostaviti testo da miruje oko 5-7 minuta. Prebaciti testo na blago pobrasnjenu povrsinu i lagano ga premesiti nekoliko puta formirajuci glatku loptu. Staviti "loptu' u cistu ciniju sa poklopcem, premazanu uljem. Zatvoriti ciniju plasticnim poklopcem ili samolepljivom folijom i ostaviti na sobnoj temperaturi da raste dok se ne udvostruci i pojave se mehurici na povrsini, oko 2 sata.

Zagrejati rernu na 400°F - 200ºC sa resetkom na sredini rerne. Prekriti pleh sa papirom za pecenje i ostaviti po strani.

Izruciti testo na blago pobrasnjenu povrsinu i i iseci ga na 4 jednaka dela. Malo pobrasnjavljenim rukama lagano rolati jedan deo testa u "konopac" duzine oko 30 cm. Lagano oklagijom rastanjiti testo formirajuci pravougaonik dimenzija 30x10 cm. Pazljivo utisnuti na testo ¼ fila na donju tercinu pravougaonika ostavljajuci oko 1 ½ cm od donje ivice. Presaviti donju ivicu testa preko fila pritiskajuci da se testo zalepi i urolati do kraja. Iseci na 12 parceta i poredjati na papir u plehu. Uraditi isto i sa ostala 3 dela testa. Ostaviti da se "odmori" na sobnoj temperaturi, nepokriveno, 30 minuta (testo ce malo narasti).

Peci ove buffalo chicken bites "zalogajcice' u zagrejanoj rerni oko 5-7 minuta ili dok ne porumene na gornjoj strani. Izvaditi iz rerne (iz nekih ce iscureti malo otopljenog sira). Premazati rastopljenim maslacem pre serviranja ako zelite.

This dough can be salty or sweet in dependence of fill

sledeca testa se mogu praviti i slatka i slana u zavisnosti od fila:

For example – na primer:

- filling with cheese, eggs, ham, meat, vegetable and other salty ingredients you have salty dough – fil sa sirom, jajima, sunkom, mesom, povrcem i drugim slanim namirnicama dobijate slano testo

- but if you for filling use sugar, walnuts, poppy, fruits, cream, chocolate cream, jam or other sweet ingredients you have a sweetly dough – ako za fil koristite secer, orahe, mak, voce, krem, cokoladni krem, dzem ili druge slatke sastojke dobijate slatko testo

- you can add there fill from grinded meat for salty or grinded walnuts for sweetly dough – ovde mozete dodati fil od mlevenog mesa za slano ili od melvenih oraha za slatko testo
