Variations:
Spicy Version: Add a pinch of red chili flakes or diced jalapeños to the filling for an extra kick.
Vegetarian Option: Replace chicken with sautéed spinach, ricotta cheese, and mushrooms.
Mini Pastries: Cut smaller pastry squares for bite-sized party appetizers.
FAQ:
Q: Can I prepare the filling ahead of time?
A: Yes! You can make the filling up to 2 days in advance. Just refrigerate it and assemble the pastries when ready to bake.
Q: Can I freeze these pastries?
A: Absolutely. Freeze them before baking. When you're ready, bake them straight from frozen, just adding a few extra minutes to the cooking time.
Q: What’s the best cheese to use?
A: Mozzarella melts beautifully, but you can mix it with sharp cheddar, gouda, or even a little feta for a deeper flavor.
Q: Can I use phyllo dough instead of puff pastry?
A: Yes, but the texture will be flakier and lighter. Brush each phyllo sheet with a little butter before layering and wrapping the filling.
