Chicken breast samsa
Description
The pastry is simple and quick to prepare. In Asia, samsa is made very often and is eaten instead of bread, whereas in our country this pastry was not so popular until recently. I've tried pastries with various fillings, even sweet ones, but the classic version is made with chicken. You can use store-bought dough or make it yourself. Serve warm or chilled. Perfect with tea.
