Ingredients:
For the Filling:
2 cups (300 g) cooked shredded chicken
1 cup (240 ml) cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup (120 ml) sour cream
1/2 cup (120 g) shredded cheddar cheese
1/4 cup (60 g) diced green onions
1 teaspoon garlic powder
Salt and pepper to taste
For the Pastry:
1 package (400 g) puff pastry, thawed
1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
For the Topping:
1 cup (240 g) shredded mozzarella cheese
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano or Italian seasoning
Preparation:
Step 1: Make the Filling
In a large bowl, mix the shredded chicken, cream cheese, sour cream, cheddar cheese, green onions, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until creamy and well-blended.
Step 2: Prepare the Puff Pastry
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Roll out the puff pastry on a lightly floured surface and cut into 4–5 inch squares.
Add a spoonful of the creamy chicken mixture to the center of each square. Fold the pastry over the filling to form a pocket, sealing the edges with a fork.
Step 3: Assemble and Bake
Arrange the stuffed pastry pockets seam-side down on a greased or parchment-lined baking sheet.
Brush the tops with beaten egg for a golden finish.
Bake for 20–25 minutes, or until the pastries are golden and puffed.
Step 4: Add the Cheesy Topping
Remove the pastries from the oven. Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese over the top.
Add a touch of dried oregano or Italian seasoning for extra flavor.
Return to the oven and bake for another 5–7 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Step 5: Serve and Enjoy
Let the bake cool for 5 minutes. Serve warm as a comforting main dish or pair with a fresh salad for a complete meal.
