Indulge in the savory delight of Gluten-Free Chicken Puffs, a perfect blend of tender chicken breast, creamy cheese, and aromatic herbs encased in flaky, golden gluten-free puff pastry. This easy-to-make recipe features a rich and flavorful filling made with cream cheese, green onions, and fresh parsley, all seasoned to perfection with salt and pepper. With just 20 minutes of prep time and 25 minutes to bake, these bite-sized morsels are ideal for gluten-free appetizers, on-the-go snacks, or a crowd-pleasing party finger food. Finished with a crisp, buttery texture thanks to an egg wash, these chicken puffs are best served warm for the ultimate comfort food experience.
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, shred the cooked chicken breast and mix it with cream cheese, chopped green onions, fresh parsley, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
On a clean surface, lay out the gluten-free puff pastry sheets.
Cut each sheet into quarters, making four smaller squares.
Place approximately 1 to 2 tablespoons of the chicken mixture in the center of each square.
In a small bowl, beat the egg with a tablespoon of water to create an egg wash.
Brush the edges of each pastry square with the egg wash.
Fold the corners of the pastry over the filling to form a triangle and press to seal the edges.
Use a fork to crimp the edges for extra security and decorative effect.
Place the assembled puffs on the prepared baking sheet and brush the tops with the remaining egg wash.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and puffed.
Allow the chicken puffs to cool slightly on a wire rack before serving. Enjoy warm.
