Where to find ingredients
Look for shredded chicken, heart of palm, onions, garlic, olive oil, cream cheese, and salt at local supermarkets, produce shops, and the chilled dairy section. If heart of palm is hard to find, a suitable substitute is finely chopped artichoke hearts, but the original ingredient is ideal.

- In a pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat
- Sauté the chopped onion until transparent
- Add the chopped garlic and sauté for another 1 minute, until fragrant
- Add the shredded chicken and chopped heart of palm to the pan
- Season with salt to taste and mix well
- Cook for a few minutes, stirring occasionally
- Add the cream cheese and mix until you get a smooth, creamy filling
- Cook over low heat for another 5 minutes, or until the filling thickens slightly
- Remove from the heat and let cool completely before using to fill the pastries
