Chicken and cream cheese pastels are delicious, savory pastries with a rich, creamy filling encased in a crisp, flaky dough. Perfect for an appetizer, snack, or even a main course, these pastels combine tender chicken, aromatic spices, and smooth cream cheese for a delectable treat that will delight your taste buds.
- Make sure to cook the chicken thoroughly before combining it with the other filling ingredients to ensure it's safe to eat.
- Use a food processor to make the dough for a smoother, more consistent texture.
- Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before rolling it out; this makes it easier to handle and less likely to tear.
- When sealing the pastels, use a fork to crimp the edges, ensuring the filling stays inside during baking.
- Brush the pastries with a beaten egg before baking for a shiny, golden finish.
- Experiment with adding different spices or herbs to the filling according to your taste preferences.
