A delightful and easy-to-make snack or appetizer featuring a savory tuna filling wrapped in golden, flaky pastry.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Preheating ensures even baking and a golden crust.
In a mixing bowl, combine the tuna, shredded cheese, mayonnaise, chopped green onion, and black pepper until well mixed.
Mix gently to avoid breaking the tuna into overly small pieces.
Unroll the crescent dough and separate it into rectangles. Press the perforations to seal them.
Use a rolling pin to smooth out the dough if needed.
Cut each rectangle in half to form squares.
Ensure even-sized squares for uniform baking.
Place a spoonful of the tuna mixture on one diagonal half of each square, leaving a border around the edges.
Avoid overfilling to prevent leakage during baking.
Fold the dough over the filling to form triangles. Press the edges with a fork to seal and cut a small slit on top for steam to escape.
Ensure the edges are tightly sealed to keep the filling inside.
Place the pockets on a baking sheet and bake for 14-16 minutes, or until golden brown.
Rotate the baking sheet halfway through for even browning.
Allow the pockets to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your savory tuna pockets!
Serve with a dipping sauce like ranch or marinara for added flavor.
