Notes

Chicken Gozleme

Tips

  • When rolling out the dough, sprinkle some flour on the surface to prevent it from sticking.
  • Be sure to knead the dough until it becomes smooth and elastic to ensure that the pastry is tender and flaky.
  • If you’re short on time, you can use store-bought dough instead of making your own from scratch.
  • To make the filling more flavorful, you can add other spices or herbs like paprika, oregano, or parsley.
  • Be sure to fully cook the chicken filling before adding it to the dough.
  • Don’t overstuff the gozleme with the filling, as it can make it difficult to fold and seal the pastry.
  • Brushing the gozleme with olive oil before cooking will give it a nice crispy texture and golden color.
  • Use a non-stick pan or griddle to prevent the gozleme from sticking.
  • When cutting the gozleme, use a sharp knife or pizza cutter to make clean and even slices.
  • Serve the gozleme hot with a side of yogurt sauce, such as tzatziki, for dipping.
