Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Cut the chicken breasts into bite-sized cubes and season with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.
In a medium skillet over medium heat, cook the chicken until fully cooked through, about 7-8 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked chicken, cream cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, and chopped green onions. Stir well to combine and set aside.
On a clean, floured surface, roll out the puff pastry sheets and cut each sheet into 4 equal squares, making a total of 8 squares.
Place 2-3 tablespoons of the chicken and cheese mixture in the center of each puff pastry square.
Fold the corners of the puff pastry over the filling to form a bundle, pinching the edges to seal tightly.
In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and water to create an egg wash. Brush the top of each bundle with the egg wash to promote browning.
Place the prepared bundles on the lined baking sheet, spacing them evenly apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the bundles are golden brown and the puff pastry is cooked through.
Allow the Chicken Cheese Bundles to cool for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy warm as a main dish or appetizer.
