Chicken Cheese and Veggie Puff Pastry Parcels with Leftovers

Hi Everyone, I have been looking for easy dinner solutions lately since our kitchen is ripped out.

My mind is going to anything slow cooker, one-pan meals and definitely making use of ANY leftovers.

The night before, I made pan-fried chicken breasts with carrots and peas (frozen) so I had these leftovers and I hate to waste food.

I love all the things you can do with puff pastry and I’ve been keeping some in my freezer so I can make different puff pastry recipes.

Usually, 2 sheets of puff pastry come in the puff pastry packages.

You can make 3 parcels per sheet so you can decide how many you want to make.

When I was testing this recipe, I used the whole package (2 sheets) and we had extra to eat for lunch the next day.

You can customize this recipe for any kind of leftovers you have and choose the kind of cheese or cheese blend you like.

I always have bags of shredded cheese in my refrigerator ready to go for different recipes.

I tried mozzarella and a Mexican cheese blend which both tasted great.

Ingredients

1 sheet frozen puff pastry, thawed
1/2 cup frozen peas, thawed
1/2 cup cooked baby carrots
1 breast chicken, cooked & cubed
3/4 cup shredded cheese, cheese blend or mozzarella or preferred choice
salt and pepper to taste, optional

Kitchen Tools

silicone baking mat
rimmed baking sheet(s)
