  1. Heat about 2 Tbsp. of oil in a large saute/fry pan over medium-high heat.
  2. Season the chicken breasts lightly with salt and pepper, add in them to the pan, and cook till golden on both sides, about 5 min per side. Do not fiddle with it too much, just let it cook. You want to get a nice color on the chicken. Remove the chicken to the cutting board to cold.
  3. Meanwhile, add in the onions, celery and spices to the oil which remains in the pan. Add in a little more oil if necessary. Saute/fry till the onions are soft. Add in the garlic and cook till just starting to brown.
  4. Add in the chilies and chicken stock to stop the browning process and to collect the browned bits of flavor off the bottom of the pan, scraping the pan with a wooden spoon. As this is coming up to a boil, dice the chicken breast into a small dice and return the chicken to the pan. Add in the crushed tortilla chips.
  5. Continue to cook till almost all of the liquid is evaporated. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper. Remove from the heat and refrigeratecompletely in the refrigerator. When the mix is cool, add in the grated cheese and mix well.
  6. Dust your counter with a little flour and spread out the puff pastry. Lightly brush the pastry with the egg/water mix. This will help seal the folded puff. Use a sharp knife or possibly a pizza cutter, cut the puff sheets into 2 inch by 2 inch squares. Place one Tbsp. of firmly packed filling into the center of each square. Fold corner to corner, and crimp with a fork. Place on a sprayed cookie sheet about one inch apart. Cover and chill till party time.
  7. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Bake for 15 to 20 min or possibly till golden. Serve with your favorite salsa.
