Chicken puff pastry is a delicious, savory treat made with tender, flavorful chicken encased in flaky puff pastry. Here's a basic recipe to make it:

### Ingredients:
- **1 sheet of puff pastry** (thawed if frozen)
- **1 cup cooked chicken** (shredded or diced)
- **1/2 cup cream cheese** (softened)
- **1/2 cup shredded cheese** (cheddar, mozzarella, or your choice)
- **1/4 cup finely chopped onion**
- **1/4 cup finely chopped bell pepper** (optional)
- **1 clove garlic** (minced)
- **1 tablespoon olive oil**
- **1 teaspoon dried thyme** (or other herbs you prefer)
- **Salt and pepper** to taste
- **1 egg** (beaten, for egg wash)

### Instructions:
1. **Preheat Oven**: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

2. **Prepare Filling**:
- Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat.
- Add the onion, garlic, and bell pepper (if using). Sauté until softened.
- Add the cooked chicken, cream cheese, shredded cheese, and thyme. Stir until well combined and the cheese is melted. Season with salt and pepper.

3. **Prepare Puff Pastry**:
- Roll out the puff pastry sheet on a lightly floured surface.
- Cut the pastry into squares or rectangles, depending on your preferred size.

4. **Assemble**:
- Place a spoonful of the chicken mixture in the center of each pastry square.
- Fold the pastry over the filling to form a pocket or triangle, and press the edges to seal. You can use a fork to crimp the edges for a decorative touch.

5. **Apply Egg Wash**:
- Brush the tops of the pastries with the beaten egg to give them a golden color when baked.

6. **Bake**:
- Place the pastries on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and puffed up.

7. **Cool and Serve**:
- Allow the pastries to cool slightly before serving.

Enjoy your homemade chicken puff pastries! They’re great as a snack, appetizer, or even a light meal.
