How to Bake Perfect Stuffed Chicken Buns every time!

- Dough: These stuffed buns are an easy bake with only a single rise needed for the dough. That makes it a comparatively quicker snack. When making anything with yeast, including these buns, let the dough rise to the point the recipe says it should, e.g., “Let the dough rise till it’s doubled in bulk.” Rising times are only a guide; there are so many variables in yeast baking (how you knead the dough; what kind of yeast you use) that it’s impossible to say that bread dough will ALWAYS double in bulk in a specific amount of time.
- Stuffing: They prepared a cheesy chicken filling and stuff into these soft buns and life will be so much simpler for you. You can fill up your buns with lots of different things. I like to add some mushrooms and olives to mine, but you can use any kind of vegetables, meat stuffing you prefer! Pizza sauce would be another great addition. Or throw in some fresh herbs. Oh, the possibilities are endless!
- Shaping: Shape them as per your liking and bake. For slightly smaller buns, divide the dough into 12 pieces instead of 10. Bake the buns for 12 to 15 minutes, instead of 15 to 18 minutes. And how about “slider buns” — about 3″ in diameter? Divide the dough into 24 pieces, and bake for 12 to 15 minutes. Proceed with the recipe as written.
- Alternative way of Shaping: What’s another easy way to shape buns, besides rolling them into balls and flattening? Gently deflate the dough, and form it into a smooth 8″ log. Slice the log as though you were slicing cinnamon buns. Gently pull each slice into a circle.
- Brushing: Brushing buns with melted butter will give them a soft, light golden crust. Brushing with an egg-white wash (1 egg white beaten with 1/4 cup water) will give them a shinier, darker crust. For seeded buns, brush with the egg wash; it’ll make the seeds adhere. And, feel free to add the extra yolk to the dough, reserving the white for the wash.

And serve with your favorite dips and sauces.

Double Up and Freeze a Batch:
I highly recommended freezing a batch of these after they’ve cooled so you can pop them into the oven for a fast, warm breakfast or as side for dinner that will delight your fellow tablemates.

Bismillah let’s get started.

Instructions
To Make The Dough:
- Sieve the flour, salt and dry milk powder in a large mixing bowl. Add sugar, instant yeast, and milk powder then add in an egg, oil and warm milk. Knead almost 10 minutes or till it forms a soft smooth dough. If required add a few splashes more of warm milk.
- Place the dough in a greased bowl and apply oil on the dough. Cover with a damp towel and keep in a warm corner of your kitchen to rise for 1 hour or till the dough is double in volume.
- Punch down the dough lightly using your palm and divide them equally.
To Make The Chicken Filling:
- Meanwhile dough is rising, prepare your buns filling. Melt butter in a pan over medium heat.
- Saute onion in butter until translucent. Now add flour and cook for 2-3 minutes or till it gives out a nice aroma. Now add milk and cook for 4-5 minutes or until it turned into nice creamy thickened texture.
- Add the shredded chicken and stir well. Season with salt, red pepper and black pepper.
- Sprinkle fresh coriander leaves and 1/2 cup cheddar cheese.Stir until well combined and remove from the heat. Let it cool completely.
To Assemble the Stuffed Chicken Buns:
- Preheat the oven at 180 degree C for 15 minutes before baking.
- Once the dough has risen, take a small portion of the dough and flatten it on Spider Strainer. Place a spoonful of the chicken stuffing in the center, top off with a little cheddar cheese and pull the edges together to seal and roll the dough into a smooth ball.
- Place the dough ball with seam side down on a greased baking tray. Likewise shape all the buns with stuffing and place on the baking tray an inch apart from each other.
- Now brush the top of all buns with egg wash and sprinkle sesame seeds on top. Cover with a cloth and let it prove for another 20 minutes.
- Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C for 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and brush the buns top with butter (it will gives them soft texture). Delicious Stuffed Chicken Buns are ready to serve. ENJOY 🙂
