Ingredients

  • 1 9-inch refrigerated pie crust
  • 2 chicken breast halves, cooked and diced
  • 1 cup ricotta cheese
  • 1/2 cup shredded Cheddar
  • 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan
  • 2 eggs, lightly beaten
  • 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
  • 1/4 cup freshly chopped parsley leaves
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Directions

  1. Divide crust into 8 pieces and shape each piece into a ball. Press the balls into the bottom and up the sides of an 8-cup mini muffin tin. Set aside.

  2. In a large bowl, combine chicken, ricotta, Cheddar, 1/4 cup of the Parmesan, eggs, Dijon, parsley, salt, and black pepper. Mix well. Spoon mixture into prepared muffin cups and top with remaining Parmesan. Bake 20 minutes, until a knife inserted near the center of 1 cup comes out clean and crust is golden brown.
