Chicken and Bacon Puffs

These Chicken and Bacon Puffs are so delicious. Flaky puff pastry stuffed with a savory filling made from chicken and bacon, tomatoes, garlic, scallions, and cheese. I always fold my savory puffs into a triangle, making them easy to hold and eat from your hand.

Start by making the savory filling for the puffs. I always use semi-frozen puff pastry when I make these puffs. Lay out puff pastry squares on baking paper. I allow the pastry to defrost enough that I can handle it without it falling apart. When you are folding the filled pies, I find it can be easier to pick up the pastry sheet and fold it in your hands rather than folding it over flat on the oven tray.

To make my Chicken and Bacon Puffs, you will need the following ingredients:

Lightly season with sea salt and freshly ground pepper and mix well.
