Chicken and Mushroom Filo Parcels

Creamy chicken wrapped in crispy filo pastry makes a special treat. The condensed soup is the secret ingredient in this, full of flavour and perfect for creating a delicious filling for these parcels.

Makes 6 parcels
Prep Time 20 minutes
Cook Time 30 minutes

400 g chicken breast fillets, diced
2 Tbsp flour seasoned with salt and pepper
1 onion, finely diced
100 g button mushrooms, roughly chopped
420 g can Wattie’s Condensed Creamy Chicken Soup
2 Tbsp sour cream
1 handful freshly chopped parsley
18 sheets filo pastry

1. Toss chicken in seasoned flour.

2. Heat a dash of oil in a frying pan. Stir fry chicken to colour. Add onion and mushrooms. Cook for 2 minutes. Pour over Wattie’s Condensed Creamy Chicken Soup. Stir. Simmer for 10 minutes, until chicken is cooked. Stir in sour cream and parsley. Cool completely.

3. Spray a sheet of filo with oil. Place a second oiled sheet on top, and top with a third sheet. Place 1/6 of the chicken mixture into the middle of the bottom third of the filo. Fold in pastry sides and roll. Repeat to make 6 parcels. Place parcels seam side down on a greased baking tray. Spray tops with oil. Bake at 200°C for 20-25 minutes.

Hard to understand 1/6 on top of three oiled sheets?

Reply from The Food in a Minute team

Hi David,

You will need to layer 3 filo sheets together (oiled each time as you layer) then place 1/6 of the chicken mixture into the middle of the filo before you fold and roll the pastry.

Hope this helps! Let us know if you have any further questions

We love this recipe - easy to make (just a bit time consuming waiting for cooling etc) and the kids don't even mind that it has mushrooms in it!
Loses one star because I'm not sure why but the pastry always breaks on the sides and the filling leaks out in the oven.

As a non-confident cook, it is extremely frustrating that Prep times are 'totally' understated. Have spent about an hour, now finally chicken etc is cooked, then the recipe says 'cool completely'!!!!! but prep time is apparently 20 minutes.
Then, the pastry has to be dealt with, now oil is all over the kitchen bench, had thought this would be for dinner, simply no chance.
Am very disappointed that there's not more transparency ...... other recipe sites also completely understate prep time reality.

Honestly delicious and so easy to make!! Prep time was accurate, but then once it’s cooled it took about 10mins to prepare filo parcels, I used butter instead of oil and my hubby was seriously impressed with my dinner creation! 5star win from our house! Thank you!!
