To make these delicious pastries, you will need the following ingredients:
- 1 sheet of puff pastry, thawed
- 1 cup cooked chicken, shredded
- 1/4 cup pesto sauce
- 1/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 egg, beaten
To begin, preheat your oven to 400 degrees F. Roll out the puff pastry on a lightly floured surface and cut it into 4 equal squares. In a small bowl, mix together the shredded chicken and pesto sauce. Spoon the chicken mixture onto each pastry square, leaving a small border around the edges. Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese over the chicken mixture.
Fold the pastry squares in half to create a triangle shape, and use a fork to crimp the edges together. Brush the beaten egg over the top of each pastry to create a golden brown crust. Bake the pastries for 15-20 minutes, or until they are puffed and golden brown.
When the pastries are finished baking, remove them from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes before serving. These pastries are best served warm, and can be garnished with fresh herbs or additional pesto sauce for added flavor.
