Chicken samosas are a popular snack from South Asian cuisine, traditionally enjoyed in countries like India and Pakistan. These savory pastries are made by filling thin, triangular pastry shells with a flavorful mixture of spiced minced chicken, onions, garlic, ginger, and aromatic herbs such as coriander or cumin. They are typically fried until golden and crispy, though baked versions are a less calorie-dense option. Chicken samosas are a good source of protein from the lean chicken filling, but they can also be high in fat and calories due to the frying method and pastry. Balancing their consumption with fresh vegetables or opting for baked preparation can make them a healthier choice. Their bold, satisfying flavors make them a favorite at gatherings, as appetizers, or on-the-go snacks.
