Chicken Sausage Puffs: A Delightful Party Snack

Looking for a simple yet impressive party snack? Look no further than these delicious chicken sausage puffs! This recipe combines the convenience of pre-cooked sausage with the flaky goodness of puff pastry for a quick and easy appetizer that’s sure to be a hit.

Ingredients You’ll Need:

• 1 package (14 ounces) frozen puff pastry, thawed
• 1 pound cooked chicken sausage, sliced into ¼-inch thick rounds
• 1 egg, beaten
• 1 tablespoon water
• 1/4 cup Dijon mustard
• 1/4 cup mayonnaise
• 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley (optional)

Instructions:

1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. On a lightly floured surface, roll out the puff pastry into a 12-inch square. Cut the pastry into 1-inch squares.
3. Place a slice of chicken sausage in the center of each pastry square. Fold the corners of the pastry square over the sausage to form a little packet. Press edges together to seal.
4. In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and water. Brush the tops of the sausage puffs with the egg wash.
5. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown and puffed up.
6. While the puffs are baking, prepare the dipping sauce by combining the Dijon mustard, mayonnaise, and parsley (if using) in a small bowl. Stir to combine.
7. Serve the chicken sausage puffs warm with the dipping sauce.

Tips for Success:

• For extra flavor, try adding a sprinkle of grated cheese to the pastry squares before baking.
• You can use any type of cooked chicken sausage you prefer, such as Italian, spicy, or apple.
• If you don’t have puff pastry on hand, you can use crescent roll dough instead. Simply unroll the dough and cut it into squares before adding the sausage.
