Paula Deen'S Spicy Chicken Empanadas

• 3 cups cooked chicken (finely chopped)
• 4 ounces cream cheese
• 1 cup monterey jack and cheddar cheese blend
• 1/4 cup diced red bell pepper
• 1 jalapeno, diced & seeded
• 1 tablespoon cumin
• salt
• fresh ground pepper
• 1 rolled refrigerated pie crust (boxed dough)
• 1 egg

1. Preheat oven to 400u0b0F.
2. Mix all ingredients (except the dough and egg) in a large bowl using rubber spatula.
3. Roll out the pie crust dough and cut circles, about 5 inches in diameter.
4. Spoon filling into the middle of the dough circles.
5. Wet your finger and run it along the edge of the circle(this helps it stick shut) - fold circle in half and pierce the edges with a fork that has been dipped in flour (to prevent sticking to the dough).
6. Beat the egg and brush over the empanadas.
7. Bake at 400u0b0F for 15 minutes.
