Delicious Chicken Alfredo Puff Pastry Shells

This dish features golden puff pastry shells filled with a rich and creamy chicken Alfredo mixture. The recipe takes about 30 minutes to prepare and serves 6 people.

Ingredients

1 package (1 lb) puff pastry sheets, thawed
2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
1 cup Alfredo sauce
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/2 cup chopped spinach (optional)
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)

Instructions

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Prepare the Puff Pastry: Roll out the thawed puff pastry sheets on a lightly floured surface. Cut into squares or circles, depending on your preferred shape for the shells.
Make the Filling: In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, Alfredo sauce, Parmesan cheese, spinach (if using), garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.
Assemble the Shells: Place a spoonful of the chicken Alfredo mixture in the center of each pastry square or circle. Fold the pastry over to create a pocket or shape as desired, sealing the edges with a fork.
Apply Egg Wash: Brush the tops of the pastry shells with the beaten egg to give them a golden color when baked.
Bake: Place the filled pastry shells on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown and puffed up.
Serve: Allow to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy these Chicken Alfredo Puff Pastry Shells warm.
