    A little off topic but we make chicken pillows so to see the name in a meme is surreal

    And because I’m trying to do my part to make Lemmy a better, more engaging and alive place in just going to drop the recipe right here lol

    Chicken Pillows 2 whole chicken breasts, about 1 lbs., skinned and boned, cut into 1 inch cubes 3 T. lemon juice 2 T. vegetable oil 1 t. Finely chopped garlic 1 t. Leaf oregano, crumbled ½t. Salt ½ c. butter 1 pkg. Wonton skins (about 50) Combine lemon juice, oil, garlic, oregano, and salt in a bowl and mix well. Add chicken pieces and coat with the marinade, cover and let set in the refrigerator overnight. Melt butter over low heat, spread over wonton skins, place a chicken cube in the center and roll up. Place a rolled up pillow on a greased cookie sheet. Brush the tops of the pillows with butter. Place in a preheated hot oven (400 degrees) for 15 minutes or until golden brown. I make a lot and freeze them in a plastic bag so they are ready to go on a road trip.

      Can you post a picture? I am having a hard time conceptualizing how to roll it up.

      Also when you take them for a road trip do you just eat them as they thaw?

        I having a hard time finding a pic right now. I’m at work. You put the prince of chicken in the corner of the won ton and roll it up folding the sides in as you go. Looks like a pillow when done.

        You can eat them as they thaw or give them a light microwaving
