Delish!

Categories     Sandwiches

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 1/2 c cooked chicken, minced
1/2 c mayonnaise
1/4 c craisins
1 tsp dijon mustard
2 Tbsp fine diced onion
2 Tbsp fine diced celery
1/4 tsp dill
salt and pepper to taste
CREAM PUFF PASTRY
2 c water
2 c flour
2 stick butter
8 eggs

Steps:

  • 1. Combine all ingredients, chill. This salad is great served on croissants...
  • 2. If making cream puff pastry to serve on. Cream Puff Pastry: Preheat oven to 400 degree F. Boil water and butter in a small sauce pan. Add flour and stir briskly over low flame until a ball forms. Remove mixture from heat and beat in eggs, with wooden spoon, one at a time in order to keep batter smooth. Continue to beat with wooden spoon until smooth. To make a small bite-sized sandwich, use a smaller kitchen spoon like a typical table spoon for eating, to drop dough onto ungreased pan, placing dough 3-inches apart. (If a larger puff is desired, use a serving spoon for portioning the dough onto the ungreased pan. Making a larger puff will decrease the number of servings.) Bake 40 to 45 minutes until lightly browned. As the crust browns, the inside opens up. (Underbaking results in a sticky inner dough and a less open texture.) Remove from oven, set aside to cool
