Mango Chicken Puffs Appetizers

Mango chicken puffs are easy puff pastry appetizers ready in under 30 minutes. Imagine creamy mango chicken filling sandwiched between puff pastry!

Mango-Chicken-Puffs-Appetizers

Guys, guys, guys! Do you like delicious AND easy finger food ideas? Are you a fan of entertaining at home? If yes, then you must try these mango chicken puffs! They were one of my favorite puff pastry appetizers when living in Ireland and I was delighted when I managed to source mango chutney here in Spain so I could make them!

They are a bit different from your typical bite size food recipes and they might not even look as pretty as other appetizers but their taste will win you over! It’s not always about the looks, you know? However, if you are after the looks then  these Anchovy Hors’d Oeuvres or these Blue Cheese Palmiers could be exactly what you are looking for!

But! Imagine a layer of puff pastry followed by a layer of mango chicken filling and finished off with another layer of puff pastry. This is a very easy party food recipe. It is also not time consuming and most of all these bites taste divine!

Mango Chicken Puffs recipe breakdown:

Chicken breasts:
I suggest you cook the chicken a day before and cut it into small pieces or you can shred it. In general, the smaller the pieces the better. In some countries you can also buy ready cooked chicken breasts and these work perfectly, if you are stuck for time.

Puff pastry:
Get ready rolled rectangular puff pastry. Cut it into small rectangles. I suggest about 6×4-cm/2.4×1.5-inch each. Place them onto a baking tray lined with baking parchment paper. Now sprinkle these with chia seeds. If you don’t have chia seeds, feel free to use poppy seeds. You can also omit this step if you wish.

Now all you need to do is throw the tray in the oven and take it out once they are done. Be careful not to burn them – usually you fill puff pastry with something so it takes longer to bake them.

A word of advice:
I noticed that when baking puff pastry on its own (without any filling) it doesn’t do well when baked at a high temperature. The sheets don’t rise to their full potential for some reason.

They will still taste amazing but to get the most out of them it’s best to bake them at 180C/356F (I followed the package instructions and baked the first batch at 200C/400F.

I ended up with puffs but they were not as puffed as the second batch baked at 180C/356F. You might be able to notice the difference when comparing the photos with the video).

Assembling mango chicken puffs:
Puff pastry rectangle + mango chicken mixture + puff pastry rectangle = a perfect mango chicken puff pastry appetizer ready to be served!

So what do you think? Do you like what you read? I like easy snacks for parties and that is why I made these puff pastry appetizers. Guys, they are hard to resist! If you do a lot of entertaining at home then this is something you should have on your menu.

Ingredients

  • 1.1 pound Chicken Breasts (500 grams)
  • 5 tablespoons Mayonnaise
  • 5 tablespoons Mango Chutney
  • 1 Ready-Rolled Rectangle Puff Pastry Sheet (275 grams/9.7 ounces)

Instructions 

  • Cook the chicken breasts the night before in boiling water for 20 minutes or until cooked through. Cut them into tiny pieces or shred them and keep in the fridge (in an air-tight container).
  • Using a knife or pizza cutter, slice puff pastry into rectangles (about 4x6cm/1.5×2.4inch) and transfer these onto a baking tray lined with baking paper. Brush them with egg wash and sprinkle with Chia seeds.
  • Bake the puff pastry in a preheated oven at 180°C/356°F for about 15 minutes or until puffed and golden brown. To make sure not to burn them – check them 10 minutes into baking.
  • Meanwhile: Cut the breasts into small cubes (you can also shred them or finely cut, if preferred).
  • In a bowl, mix mayonnaise, mango chutney, parsley and chicken. Taste it and add salt, if needed.
  • Once the puff pastry is ready, let it cool down before cutting each piece in half horizontally. Fill the bottom part with mango chicken mixture and cover with chia seed puff.
  • Arrange on a serving plate, tray or a chopping board and serve!

    These really do look irresistible! I love the video, too — it really breaks it down and makes the recipe seem that much easier. Will have to get my hands on some mango chutney so I can try these!

    These sound awesome! I love finger food (much better than what is used in North America for appetisers). It is a small bite and leaves room for other, small bites :~D I LOVE THE ADDITIONS OF MANGO CHUTNEY IN THE CHICKEN.

    Love these little bites! I can imagine just how crispy those edges get with the puff pastry. Yum! I also really like your use of chia seeds instead of poppy seeds. Never thought of that before.

    Hi.. I’d love to try this recipe. How long before can I prepare the puffs?

    • Julia | Happy Foods Tube says

      Hi Coleen, in order to assemble the puffs together, the puffed pastry “cases” need to be cooled completely. You can do it in advance too (several hours) and keep them in the fridge – they will not be so crispy though. Hope this helps. If you need any more help, let me know!

    Just made the mistake of cutting the rectangles into 6x3cm as said in your blog. In the recipe it says 6x4cm which I think is correct. I’m sure they will taste just as delicious but thought you may like to edit your blog. X

      Thanks for your comment, Karen. I have corrected the typo. In this recipe it does not really matter what size you cut the pastry. It will not affect the taste of the puffs, they will just be smaller. I usually eyeball it :). Hope you like them as much as we do!
