Vegan 'Chicken' Puffs
Mouthwatering delicious vegan chicken puffs!
Ingredients
Vegan 'Chicken' Mixture
- 1 Tbsp Coconut Oil
- 3 oz Red Onion
- 2 Cloves Garlic
- 1 Tsp Rosemary
- 1 Tsp Sage
- 1 Tsp Thyme
- 2 Oz Crimini Mushrooms
- 1 Can Young Jackfruit
- 1/2 Cup Coconut Milk (Full Fat)
- 1/4 Cup Vegan Parmesan (Homemade)
- 1 Tsp Garlic Powder
- Pinch Salt & Pepper
Egg Wash
- 1/4 Cup Non-Dairy Milk
- 1 Tsp Sugar
Puff Pastry
- 1 Sheet Puff Pastry (I used Pepper Ridge Farm)
Instructions
- Preheat Oven at 350F degrees.
- Dice the onions and chop the garlic, sage, rosemary and thyme and set everything aside
- Shred the jackfruit in medium pieces (I used Native Forest), but not too small to the point of losing texture. Set it aside.
- Dice your mushrooms in medium to small pieces. Keep in mind the mushrooms will shrink as they cook, so don't cut them too small.
- Place a skillet on medium heat and add the coconut oil, onion, garlic, and herbs (sage, rosemary and thyme). Stir everything until the onions are translucent.
- Add the mushrooms and jackfruit and continue to stir to combine until the mushrooms are cooked (they'll be shrunk in size).
- Add the garlic powder, salt and pepper, and parmesan cheese and stir to incorporate everything.
- Add the coconut milk and mix for another 3 minutes until everything is creamy. Set it aside.
- Sprinkle some flour on your working surface and slightly roll out one sheet of puff pastry to extend it (see note below**). Cut the sheet in 4 equal parts dividing it horizontally and vertically.
- Take one piece at a time and using a rolling pin, spread the sheet slightly to extend it, but DO NOT overwork the dough. One it's the desire size, add the chicken mixture (about a tablespoon and a half for each sheet). Use a fork to seal by pressing the fork on the edges. Continue this process until you run out of puff pastry sheet or chicken mixture.
- Place each 'chicken' puff on a baking tray lined with parchment paper and apply the egg wash (mix the non-dairy milk with sugar).
- Place the tray in the oven and bake for 15 minutes. Feel free to let the 'chicken' puffs in the oven a little longer to let it brown to your liking. Out of the oven they should have a golden brown color with a glossy finish.
- Enjoy your 'chicken' puffs hot themselves or with a creamy mushroom sauce.
