Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 sheets Puff pastry sheets
- 3 large Green chilies
- 1 cup Cheddar cheese
- 4 tablespoons Cream cheese
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons Cilantro, chopped
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 large Egg, beaten
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Thaw the puff pastry sheets according to the package instructions if frozen.
Finely chop the green chilies and mix them with the cheddar cheese, cream cheese, minced garlic, chopped cilantro, salt, and black pepper in a medium bowl. Set aside.
Roll out the puff pastry sheets on a lightly floured surface to smooth out any creases.
Cut each puff pastry sheet into 6 equal squares.
Place a tablespoon of the green chili and cheese mixture in the center of each square.
Fold one corner of each square over the filling to form a triangle. Press the edges together firmly to seal and crimp them with a fork.
Place the filled puffs onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving a little space between each puff.
Brush the tops of the puffs with the beaten egg to give them a golden finish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the puffs are golden brown and flaky.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool for a few minutes before serving.
Serve warm and enjoy your Green Chili Puffs!
