These ” Butter Chicken Pinwheels ” literally MELTS in your Mouth & Soooo Addicting!!! We are soon approaching Diwali ~ Indian Festival of Lights and a lot of you have requested me an easy chicken appetizer for the party. So I’m here and I’m calling ALL MY Butter Chicken + Snack Lovers as these will be a Star of Your Party!!! And these pinwheels are perfect to make for a crowd or just a party of 4. The Semi-homemade kind of snack is just the thing you need after slogging aLL day in the kitchen.
Ingredients for Butter Chicken Pinwheels:
Since it’s a semi-homemade kind of snack, I’m going for a ready-made butter chicken sauce (which we absolutely loooove) but you can totally use your own recipe.
Puff Pastry Sheets Butter Chicken Sauce – homemade or storebought (Try Sutter Buttes Butter Chicken Simmer Sauce) Cooked Chicken – thinly chopped or shredded 1 Onion thinly chopped 1/2 Cup Cheese – I’m using a mixed cheese 1 Egg – whisked Salt + Pepper – as per taste
The Process to Make Butter Chicken Pinwheels:
Easy ingredients and even easier steps to make the recipe:
Start by thawing the puff pastry sheets. Lay it flat on a baking tray and slather the luscious butter chicken sauce on it. Sprinkle cooked and chopped chicken. Add onion, cheese and gently press the stuffing. Start folding the sheet in the shape of a log. Brush the log with whisked egg and Keep it in the freezer for 5 minutes as that helps hold the shape. Remove from the freezer and slice the log into 1.5 inch wide pinwheels. Turn them face up on the baking sheet. Bake the pinwheels to a golden perfection Remove from oven, cool and little and serve.
I usually server these Butter Chicken Pinwheels as is or without any sauce, as they are so creamy that they donot need any dip with it. Which for me is perfect as I dont have to worry about a dip or sauce. Also less utensil – Wohooo!
Pro Tip:
Always & I mean Always Freeze the Puff Pastry dish before baking or cutting as that helps retain the shape. The puff pastry remains intact and the puffs come out crispier when you freeze for few minutes before baking.
Go ahead and enjoy these snacks and hide some extra for yourself as they are gone in seconds.
