Chicken Cheese-Onion Buns

Place the flour, yeast, salt, onion powder, honey, olive oil, and lukewarm water in a bowl. Knead for 10-12 minutes until a smooth dough forms. Cover and let rise in a warm spot for 1 hour or until doubled in size.

Heat the olive oil and butter in a frying pan over medium heat. Add the chopped yellow onion and sauté for 4-5 minutes.

Add the chicken thighs, salt, cayenne powder, and garlic powder. Cook for 5-7 minutes until the chicken is fully cooked.

Remove from heat and stir in the cheese spread and Italian seasoning. Mix well and let the chicken mixture cool completely.

Deflate the dough and divide it into 12 equal pieces of about 45 g each. Shape them into balls.

Take one dough ball and roll it out into a circle.

Place a slice of cheese and about 45 g of the chicken mixture in the center of the dough. Fold the edges up, pinch the top tightly to seal, and shape into a smooth ball.

In a bowl, mix the grated Parmesan cheese, onion powder, and cayenne powder. Brush each dough ball with milk and roll it in the cheese mixture.

Place the buns on a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Let them rise for 30 minutes in a warm place.

Bake in a preheated oven at 200°C for 12-18 minutes until golden brown.
