Description

Delicious flaky pastries filled with tender chicken and topped with a rich creamy parmesan sauce.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups cooked and shredded chicken breast
  • 8 oz cream cheese
  • 1 cup grated parmesan cheese
  • 2 sheets puff pastry
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 2 tbsp chopped chives or green onions
  • 2 tbsp butter, melted


Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, mix shredded chicken, cream cheese, parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, and chopped chives until well combined.
  2. Thaw puff pastry sheets and roll them out gently on a floured surface.
  3. Cut the pastry into squares, approximately 4×4 inches.
  4. Spoon a generous amount of the chicken filling into the center of each square, leaving space around the edges.
  5. Fold the square over to create a triangle and press the edges together. Use a fork to crimp the edges.
  6. Place the filled pillows on a parchment-lined baking sheet and brush tops with melted butter.
  7. Bake in a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) for 20-25 minutes until golden brown and puffed.

Notes

Use cold cream cheese for better mixing and ease of spreading. Can be made ahead and refrigerated or frozen for later baking.
