Ingredients
  

2 cups cooked chicken, shredded

1 cup ricotta cheese

1 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded

1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

Salt and pepper to taste

1 package of puff pastry sheets (2 sheets, thawed)

1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)

1 cup marinara sauce (for serving)

Fresh basil leaves (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

    In a large bowl, combine the shredded chicken, ricotta cheese, mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Mix until fully combined.

      On a lightly floured surface, roll out the puff pastry sheets to flatten them slightly. Use a knife to cut each sheet into 4 equal squares.

        Place a generous spoonful of the chicken mixture in the center of each pastry square.

          Fold the corners of the pastry over the filling to form a pillow shape, and pinch the edges to seal tightly.

            Brush the tops of each pillow with the beaten egg to give them a golden color when baked.

              Place the pillows on the prepared baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until they are puffed and golden brown.

                While the pillows are baking, heat the marinara sauce in a small saucepan over medium heat until warm.

                  Once the pillows are done, remove them from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes.

                    Serve the Chicken Parmesan Pillows warm, drizzled with marinara sauce and garnished with fresh basil leaves.
