Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 1/4 cup shredded roasted chicken (or any leftover chicken, light and/or dark meat)
3/4 cup whole milk ricotta cheese
1/2 lemon, zested
1/2 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme leaves
1/2 teaspoon salt, plus more for sprinkling
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, plus more for sprinkling
32 small, square wonton wrappers
1 large egg, lightly beaten
4 tablespoons butter
1/4 cup grated Parmesan

Steps:

  • In a small bowl combine the chicken, ricotta cheese, lemon zest, thyme, salt, and pepper. Stir to combine.
  • On a dry work surface place 8 wonton wrappers. Place a rounded teaspoon of the chicken mixture in the center of each wrapper. Using a pastry brush, brush the egg wash around the chicken mixture. Bring four corners of the wonton square together over the filling to form a purse. Press the edges together tightly to form a seal. Wipe the board with a towel until dry and continue making batches of 8 with the remaining wonton skins
  • Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Add
  • the purses and cook until they float to the surface, stirring occasionally, about 4 to 5 minutes. Drain the ravioli.
  • Melt 4 tablespoons of butter in a medium skillet. Turn off the heat, add the cooked pyramids and gently toss. Transfer the pyramids to 4 serving plates. Sprinkle with grated Parmesan and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Serve immediately.

I'm not sure how to make puff pastry dough. I'll have to look up a recipe.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my chicken purses didn't turn out at all. The dough was tough and the filling was dry.

They were a little dry. I think I overcooked them.

These were a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more herbs and spices next time.
