Sizzling chicken, bell peppers, and melted cheese tucked inside crispy samosa sheets make these cheesy pizza parcels a practical solution for busy weeknights or a casual weekend snack. The filling combines the smokiness of cumin and paprika with a velvety cream base, providing a familiar fajita profile that contrasts beautifully with the crunch of the fried or baked pastry.
As the parcels cook, the mozzarella and kashkaval blend creates a satisfying cheese pull while the tomato and olive base keeps the interior juicy. Since these can be prepped in advance and refrigerated, they work well for those who prefer having a stash of ready-to-fry appetizers on hand for unexpected guests or quick family meals.
You can serve these warm straight from the fryer, oven, or air fryer as a handheld treat. They pair well with a side of sour cream or salsa, bridging the gap between a Tex-Mex dinner and a crispy finger food favorite.
