Delicious!! As a cautionary tale, however, I should mention some of my failed modification attempts: I cubed the chicken before cooking, hoping that would cut down on the time, but then when I went to wrap up the pastries I couldn't exactly spread the cream cheese on the chicken, so I just put a dollop on each, assuming it would melt and spread out in the oven. It doesn't! So next time I will spread it out on the other side of the puff pastry before I fold it over (I cut the sheets into triangles to make little turnovers). Still tasted fantastic, though. I found baking 30 min at 400 browned them perfectly in my oven. An easy way to make something that seems so fancy! I made a double batch using a "family pack" of chicken breasts, two packages of puff pastry sheets, but just one pkg. of cream cheese, and I put the other 4 pastries (unbaked) in the freezer for another quick meal!

I decided to do some modifications and boy is this TASTY! I had phyllo dough on hand, so I laid out a few layers, brushed with melted butter, put balls of stuffing evenly apart then layered more phyllo on top, pressed together between the stuffing and cut to form what looked like ravioli pastries. Also, the changes I made to the stuffing were DELICIOUS!!!! I boiled and shredded chicken breast, and mixed it with sauteed mushrooms and garlic. I didn't have herbed cream cheese so I added sliced green onion to neufchatel. I baked the pastries as directed and the results are WONDERFUL! My husband loves them and I like how it's something different than the 'old usual.'

I felt there was WAY too much cream cheese in each of the puffs. BTW, I also cooked the chicken all the way through before putting them in the oven.

This is a great recipe-- it is now a regular in our house. I cook it longer at lower temperature, otherwise the pastry burns before the chicken cooks through--darn growth hormones! Aside from the cook time, the recipe is perfect. Wonderful flavor and very hearty!

Very good dish! Easy to make. The only change I would make would be to use puff pastry sheets rather than shells as they would be easier to work with. The shells barely covered the chicken and I had to dice the chicken which worked out better. I might add a little garlic to the chicken as well before putting the creme cheese in.

The idea is great, but this recipe does have one error. Puff pastry SHEETS should be used, if you're going to roll it out -- not SHELLS! OR, this is how I did it: 1. Bake puff pastry shells (following directions on box). 2. Cut chicken into pieces and cook in skillet with oil & salt & pepper. 3. Combine cooked chicken with cream cheese (I used regular cream cheese plus fresh chives). 4. Fill shells with chicken/cream cheese mixture. 5. Pop them back in the oven for a few minutes to make sure they're nice and hot. DELISH!!

Very good and simple recipe. Make sure your chicken has cooled a bit before wrapping in pastry shells...it will melt them and make holes when you fold it over. My young kids liked it...we called it chicken in a doughnut.

This is fabulous! In addition to stuffing this with chicken I stuffed with mushrooms and onions. It was a great change from the same ol' same ol' chicken dish. However, next time I'll make some rough puff instead of using store bought. My husband is quite a big eater and I went through a box and a half of pastry just for our meal and that's a bit much for our budget these days.

This was very good. The whole family liked it, which is saying a lot. The only changes I made (after reading reviews) was cutting the chiken up and cooking it in a skillet, and using cresent rolls. I was afraid that the chicken wouldn't get done in the oven. I couldn't find the pastry, so I used cresent rolls like some other reviewers. I cut up 3 chicken breasts, but had a lot of chicken left over. I put 2 cresents together to make a rectangle, spread the cream cheese on the cresents, then added some chicken on one half of the cresent, folded over the other half and pressed the ends together. One can of cresent rolls made 4 chicken puffs. This was enough for our family b/c we are trying to watch our portion sizes. Will add this to our dinner menu.

Very good. A nice different way to cook chicken. Looked beautiful. I flattened chicken slightly for even cooking and probably used a little less cheese, but it was Yummy!

I used phyllo dough and a green onions and chive cream cheese to which I added heaps of fresh tarragon and some rosemary and garlic seasoning. As suggested by a previous reviewer, I pounded the breasts thin and thus the cooking instructions produced a tender, perfectly cooked chicken breast and crisp, flaky pastry. I served with steamed red potatoes and sauteed green beans with almonds. I will make again, perhaps add some lemon tarragon sauce.

Really, really great recipe! However I did make some changes. I cooked the chicken breasts thoroughly (with some minced onions)and chopped the chicken. I also added mushrooms. Next time I will add spinach as well.
