Cheesy Chicken & Broccoli Stromboli

This Cheesy Chicken & Broccoli Stromboli recipe could easily be adapted to ingredients already in your fridge and pantry. 

However the star ingredient and what brings it all together is the puff pastry sheet.  I recommend keeping a box in your freezer for just such an occasion.

I combined steamed broccoli & carrots, cooked chicken, and sautéed onion with cream cheese and shredded cheddar cheese.  Simply season to taste and you’re ready build your Stromboli.

Puff pastry is folded in thirds, making a great template for this crisscrossed braided method.  Simply cut strips into the two outer thirds, leaving the middle uncut.  Place a generous amount of the filling down the center, then overlap with the outer pastry strips.

Brush the top of the Stromboli with a beaten egg, then bake at 375 degrees for 30 minutes or until golden brown.  Allow to rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

We devoured our Cheesy Chicken & Broccoli Stromboli declaring it dinner.  However I can definitely see this as a great Game Day snack with endless filling options.  I’m already envisioning a Thanksgiving Leftovers Stromboli.  You might also like our Sausage, Peppers & Caramelized Onion Stromboli.  Have fun with it and let me know how you fill yours.
