This recipe results in an unusual shape, the “Beggars Purse”. Further the dough is a raised yeast dough, which adds lots of flavor to these packets. The chicken can be roasted and then shredded, again which adds extra flavor. This is a great dumpling, good finger food, and a great addition to a Tailgate or other event.
