Instructions
Chicken Preparation:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees
- Season Just Bare® Boneless Skinless Chicken Breasts with salt and pepper
- Bake chicken in oven for 15-18 minutes, or until internal temperature of chicken reads 165 degrees, remove from oven, let rest until room temperature
- Shred by hand and hold
Other Preparation:
- Preheat the oven to 400°F.
- In a medium sized mixing bowl, combine creamed cheese, shredded chicken, curry powder, dried cranberries, scallions, garlic, salt, pepper and mozzarella to the cream cheese and stir to combine.
- On a lightly floured area, roll one sheet at a time into a 12×12 square. Using a sharp knife or a pizza cutter, cut one puff pastry dough into three equal pieces. Cut each of the three pieces in half so you have six square pieces of dough. Repeat with the other sheet of puff pastry dough. You should now have 12 pieces of dough.
- Add about 2 tablespoons of the chicken and cheese mixture to the center of each square.
- Use a pastry brush and add a little water to the edge of two sides of the dough.
- Fold the dough into a triangle. Then using a fork, crimp the edges.
- Place all the triangle pockets on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Place the tray in the refrigerator to chill the dough for 30 minutes.
- Remove the tray and brush the triangle pockets with the egg wash.
- Bake in the preheated 400°F oven for 20 to 25 minutes or until the pastry is a deep golden brown.
- Remove the pockets to a wire rack and let cool for 5 minutes before serving.
