Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 sheets Puff pastry sheets
- 2 cups Chicken breast, cooked and shredded
- 1.5 cups Frozen mixed vegetables (peas, carrots, corn, green beans)
- 4 oz Cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 tsp Garlic powder
- 1 tsp Onion powder
- 0.5 tsp Salt
- 0.25 tsp Black pepper
- 1 Egg
- 1 tbsp Water
- 2 tbsp Flour, for dusting
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Lightly dust your work surface with flour and roll out the puff pastry sheets slightly to smooth them out. Cut each sheet into four equal squares, making a total of eight squares.
In a large bowl, combine the shredded cooked chicken, frozen mixed vegetables, cream cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until fully combined.
Place about 2 tablespoons of the filling in the center of each puff pastry square. Do not overfill to ensure the pastry seals properly.
Fold each square diagonally to form a triangle. Press the edges together firmly to seal, and use a fork to crimp the edges for an extra-secure seal.
In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and water to create an egg wash. Brush the tops of each pastry with the egg wash for a golden, shiny finish.
Transfer the pastries to the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 1 inch apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the pastries are puffed and golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy your Puff Pastry Surprise!
