The Inspiration Behind Chicken Savory Cups
One of the joys of cooking is its ability to surprise us with delicious creations born out of necessity. I found myself in need of a tasty appetizer for a small gathering but lacked the usual ingredients. However, creativity struck, and Chicken Savory Cups were born!
Ingredients You'll Need:
2 cups cooked chicken, shredded or diced
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 onion, finely chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup mixed vegetables (carrots, peas, corn)
Salt and pepper to taste
1 teaspoon paprika
1/2 cup chicken broth
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup shredded cheese
2 sheets puff pastry, thawed
Directions:
1. Preparation: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a muffin tin or line it with cupcake liners.
2. Chicken Filling:
In a pan over medium heat, add olive oil. Sauté onions and garlic until translucent. Add mixed vegetables and cook until tender. Season with salt, pepper, and paprika. Stir in the cooked chicken.
3.Sauce Creation:In a separate small saucepan, combine chicken broth, flour, and milk. Whisk continuously over medium heat until the mixture thickens. Add shredded cheese and mix until melted. Pour this sauce over the chicken and vegetable mixture. Stir until well combined.
4. Creating Cups: Roll out the puff pastry sheets and cut them into squares. Place each square into the muffin tin cups, pressing gently to create a cup shape.
5.Assembly:Spoon the chicken filling into each pastry cup, distributing evenly.
6. Bake:Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes or until the pastry turns golden brown and crispy.
7. Serve:Once baked, allow the savory cups to cool for a few minutes. Carefully remove them from the muffin tin and serve warm.
