  • You need just a handful ingredients to enjoy golden brown rolls, stuffed with fajita chicken and cheese! Tender, cheesy, crammed with flavor! Oh, and I cheated and used frozen dinner rolls - so everything came together in just minutes. Great for parties, kid's celebrations and mid-afternoon snacking! Recipe below:
    Chicken Fajita Bombs!
    6-8 frozen dinner rolls, thawed according to package directions (or thaw as many as you want, noting that we divide each roll in half)
    2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
    1 boneless, skinless chicken breast half (about 5 ounces), cut into 1/2-inch pieces
    2 tablespoons fajita seasoning of choice, plus more for sprinkling over the top of the bombs
    1/4-1/3 cup water
    3/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese
    Salsa of choice (for dunking)
    Divide each dinner roll in half and set aside.
    Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook until browned on all sides, stirring frequently. Add 2 tablespoons of the fajita seasoning and stir to coat. Add enough water to cover the entire bottom of the skillet (about 1/4-1/3 cup) and bring to a simmer. Simmer for 1 to 2 minutes, until the liquid is completely absorbed and the seasoning coats every piece of chicken, stirring frequently. Remove the pan from the heat and cool for 5 minutes.
    Press each piece of dough into a flat round, about 1/4-inch thick. Top each round with about 1 tablespoon of the cheese. Top with 2-3 pieces of the chicken, depending on how much room you have (use just enough chicken to cover the cheese, but not so much that you can't fold the dough up and over it).
    Pull up the sides of the dough and pinch together, making a sealed ball (also called a beggar's purse).
    Transfer the bombs to a parchment-lined baking sheet and brush with the remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Sprinkle each bomb with a little of the fajita seasoning.
    Let rise for 20 minutes (this is just enough time for the dough to puff up slightly - since we squashed it down - we're not looking for a whole dinner roll rise).
    Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
    Bake the bombs for 15 to 20 minutes, until golden brown.
    Serve with salsa for dunking!
