Description
These Melted Mozzarella and Ranch Chicken Bombs are the ultimate comfort food—tender chicken wrapped around a cheesy ranch filling, baked inside buttery puff pastry until golden and gooey.
Ingredients
1 lb chicken breast, boneless and skinless
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1 packet ranch seasoning mix
1/2 cup cream cheese, softened
1/4 cup chopped green onions
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp paprika
1 tbsp olive oil
Salt and pepper, to taste
1 sheet puff pastry, thawed
Instructions
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
Slice chicken breasts horizontally to create thin fillets. Season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.
In a bowl, mix cream cheese, ranch seasoning, mozzarella, and green onions.
Place a spoonful of the mixture on each chicken fillet. Fold to form a pocket or “bomb.”
Roll out the puff pastry and cut into squares large enough to wrap each chicken bomb.
Wrap each chicken bomb in pastry and seal tightly.
Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Brush tops with olive oil.
Bake for 25–30 minutes, until pastry is golden and chicken is cooked through (internal temp 165°F).
Serve hot and enjoy the cheesy, melty goodness!
Notes
Add a splash of buffalo sauce to the filling for a spicier version.
You can prep ahead and refrigerate wrapped bombs before baking.
For extra crispy pastry, brush with egg wash instead of olive oil.
