Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup (shredded) Cooked chicken breast
- 0.5 cup Sweet corn kernels
- 4 tablespoons Cream cheese
- 1 tablespoon Butter
- 1 tablespoon All-purpose flour
- 0.5 cup Milk
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Paprika
- 2 sheets (thawed) Puff pastry sheets
- 1 large (beaten for egg wash) Egg
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Stir in the flour to create a smooth roux and cook for 1 minute.
Slowly add the milk while whisking continuously to avoid lumps. Cook until the mixture thickens, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the cream cheese, salt, black pepper, and paprika to the thickened sauce. Stir until smooth and fully combined.
Mix in the shredded chicken and sweet corn, ensuring the filling is well coated. Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly.
Roll out the thawed puff pastry sheets onto a lightly floured surface. Cut each sheet into 4 equal squares.
Spoon 2-3 tablespoons of the chicken and corn filling onto the center of each pastry square.
Fold each square into a triangle by bringing the opposite corners together. Press the edges firmly with a fork to seal.
Brush the tops of the pastries with the beaten egg for a golden glaze.
Transfer the pastries to the prepared baking sheet and bake for 18-20 minutes, or until the pastries are puffed and golden brown.
Allow the pastries to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm or at room temperature!
