A savory favorite using a few fun shortcuts! These Chicken Puff Pastry Turnovers are quick to make and popular with the whole family!
Throw these yummy little chicken puffs together very quickly using pantry staples, and some shortcuts.
These are wonderful with a side salad for dinner, and fantastic the next day cold, too!
These Chicken & Rice Turnovers have a crisp and buttery crust and are filled with creamy chicken and vegetables. Bonus: you can eat them on the run! A quick salad (if you want a complete meal) and dinner (or lunch) is DONE!!
Ingredients are simple. Just grab cooked chicken, puff pastry, frozen vegetables, a white sauce, or some cream of chicken soup (make it yourself here), egg yolk and some poppy seeds.
Variations for Chicken Puffs
- Switch out the vegetables for corn and beans – or use just peas if that’s what you have!
- Top the pastries with sesame seeds instead of poppy seeds.
- Experiment with different flavored soups and seasonings.
- Use fresh basil and sundried tomatoes for an Italian flair.
