Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 sheets Puff pastry sheets
- 2 pieces Chicken breast
- 4 ounces Cream cheese
- 1 cup Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 2 cloves Garlic
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
- 1 Egg
- 1 tablespoon Water
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Allow the puff pastry sheets to thaw according to the package instructions, typically around 10-15 minutes.
While the pastry thaws, season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Heat a skillet over medium heat and cook the chicken until fully cooked, about 5 minutes per side. Remove from heat and let cool slightly before dicing into small pieces.
In a mixing bowl, combine the diced chicken, cream cheese, shredded mozzarella, minced garlic, and chopped parsley. Stir until the mixture is well combined.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the puff pastry sheets to ensure even thickness. Cut each sheet into 4 equal squares, making 8 squares total.
Spoon 2-3 tablespoons of the chicken mixture into the center of each puff pastry square.
Fold each square by bringing the corners together in the center, pinching the edges to seal. Make sure there are no gaps for the filling to leak out.
In a small bowl, beat the egg with the tablespoon of water to create an egg wash. Brush this over the tops and sides of the puff pastry bundles to provide a golden finish.
Arrange the bundles on the prepared baking sheet, leaving 1-2 inches of space between each.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the pastry is puffed and golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes before serving. Serve warm and enjoy!
