BBQ Chicken Puffs image

I made this recipe up when I didn't have enough time to run to the store. I just used leftover shredded barbeque chicken, some puff pastry, and other ingredients that I had in my kitchen. These were a hit at the party and the first appetizer to go!

Time 35m

Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 tablespoon vegetable oil, or as needed
1 sheet frozen puff pastry, thawed
1 (4 ounce) package cream cheese, cut into 1/2-inch squares
1 cup shredded cooked chicken
¼ cup barbeque sauce
½ teaspoon red pepper flakes, or to taste
½ cup shredded Cheddar cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a miniature muffin tin.
  • Cut puff pastry along the creases into 3 separate rectangles. Place onto a lightly floured surface. Roll 1 rectangle to 1/8-inch thickness using a lightly floured rolling pin. Cut pastry into 8 circles about 2 1/2 inches in diameter. Repeat with the other 2 rectangles.
  • Press pastry circles into the greased muffin cups. Place 1 square of cream cheese in the bottom of each cup.
  • Mix shredded chicken, barbeque sauce, and red pepper flakes together in a bowl. Spoon about 2 teaspoons of the mixture into each cup until level with the top of the cup.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until pastry is golden brown and filling is heated through, 20 to 25 minutes. Spoon 1 teaspoon Cheddar cheese on top of each pastry 3 minutes before removing from oven.
