Description

Light, flaky pastry filled with creamy, protein-packed chicken salad — a bite-sized delight perfect for parties or brunch.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 sheet puff pastry (thawed)
  • 1 cup cooked chicken breast (shredded or diced)
  • ¼ cup Greek yogurt
  • ¼ cup mayonnaise
  • ¼ cup diced celery
  • 2 tbsp dried cranberries or grapes (halved)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Egg wash (1 egg beaten with 1 tbsp water)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Cut puff pastry into 2-inch squares, brush with egg wash, and bake for 12–15 minutes until golden and puffed.
  3. In a bowl, mix chicken, yogurt, mayo, celery, cranberries, salt, and pepper until creamy.
  4. Once pastry squares cool, slice each in half horizontally to create tops and bottoms.
  5. Spoon a dollop of chicken salad onto the bottom half and cap with the top pastry.
  6. Secure each puff with a small skewer or pick for easy serving.

Notes

  • For a healthier option, use low-fat mayonnaise.
  • These puffs can be made ahead of time and assembled just before serving.
  • Feel free to add other ingredients like chopped nuts or herbs for extra flavor.
