Cheddar and Poppyseed Straws

Makes 6-8  servings

Ingredients

1 (15-ounce) package refrigerated pie crusts
1 cup shredded Kerrygold Reserve Cheddar Cheese
1 teaspoon poppy seeds Garlic salt
 

Directions

Heat oven to 400°F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper. Knead all ingredients except garlic salt together for a few minutes. Form into walnut-size balls, then roll out to form long thin sticks. Place on baking sheets and sprinkle with garlic salt. Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until golden. Makes about 32 straws

When the mixture is thick and smooth, add the chicken pieces and stir well to coat them with the spice mixture. Cover and cook over very low heat until the chicken is tender, approximately 35 to 45 minutes. There should only be a little very thick gravy left when chicken is finished cooking. If necessary cook uncovered for a few minutes to reduce the gravy.
