    In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground chicken until evenly browned; drain.

    On a lightly floured surface, roll each portion of dough to a 1/8 inch thickness. Cut into 2 inch squares.

    Place about 1 teaspoon of the chicken mixture in the center of half of the squares, then top with the remaining squares. Seal the edges with a moistened fork to form the ravioli.
