Uyghur samsa with chicken
Uyghur chicken samsa is a frozen, semi-finished product made from delicate, puff pastry with a juicy chicken and onion filling. A special dough-making technique results in a delicious golden crust, distinct flaky texture, and a tender, crumbly texture after baking. The samsa is hand-formed and frozen ready to bake. There's no need to defrost it—just place the frozen samsa on a baking sheet and bake in the oven until golden brown. The filling combines chicken, onion, and spices, which release their flavor while baking and preserve their juiciness. Perfect for family meals, breakfast, snacking, or quickly preparing for guests. Important: This product is sold frozen and requires cooking before consumption.
