Ingredients

  1. 1 large carrot, peeled, grated (optional)
  2. 1 large stalk celery, thinly sliced
  3. 2 tbsp. apple cider vinegar
  4. Kosher salt
  5. 6 oz. cream cheese, softened
  6. 6 tbsp. unsalted butter, melted
  7. 1/3 c. hot sauce
  8. 1 1/2 tsp. store-bought or homemade Cajun seasoning
  9. 2 1/4 c. chopped rotisserie chicken (about 12 oz.)
  10. 1 1/2 c. shredded cheddar
  11. 1/4 c. blue cheese crumbles, plus more for serving
  12. 4 tbsp. sliced chives, divided
  13. All-purpose flour, for surface
  14. 1 (8 1/2-oz.) sheet puff pastry
  15. Cooking spray
  16. Ranch dressing, for serving

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 450°. In a small bowl, toss carrot, celery, and vinegar with a pinch of salt; set aside until ready to serve.
  2. In a large bowl, stir cream cheese, butter, hot sauce, and Cajun seasoning until smooth and combined. Fold in chicken, cheddar, blue cheese, and 3 Tbsp. chives until distributed.
  3. On a lightly floured surface, roll puff pastry to a 12" x 10" rectangle. Using a bench scraper or sharp knife, portion dough into 12 squares.
  4. Spray a standard 12-cup muffin tin with cooking spray. Place a square in each well, lightly pressing into bottom of pan. Fill cups with chicken mixture.
  5. Bake bites until pastry is golden brown and tops are bubbling, 17 to 20 minutes. Let cool in tin 5 to 10 minutes.
  6. Transfer bites to a platter. Top with reserved carrot mixture and remaining 1 Tbsp. chives. Serve with ranch dressing alongside.
