Chicken Club Hand Pies

prep time: 10 minutes, plus 1 hour to chill dough, if needed cook
time: 15 minutes yield: 4 servings

These hand pies are super-tasty and really cute to
serve. If you love them as much as we do, I highly
suggest making a quadruple batch and storing
unbaked pies in the freezer for easy meals: all you
have to do is pop one in the toaster oven or oven!
