1

Cut boneless chicken into small pieces or grind it if you have a meat grinder.

2

Transfer the chicken to a pan and cook on low flame, stirring to allow it to release water.

3

Add bell peppers, onions, and coriander leaves to the chicken and mix well.

4

Cover the pan and allow the veggies to cook with the chicken.

5

Set the cooked chicken and veggies aside to cool.

6

In a mixing bowl, add 1 cup of all-purpose flour and salt.

7

Add 1/2 tablespoon of oil and mix well.

8

Gradually add 1/2 cup of water while kneading to form a dough, ensuring it is not too soft.

9

Knead the dough until it is firm and stretchy, then cover it with oil and a kitchen towel and let it rest for 15 minutes.

10

After 15 minutes, divide the dough into equal-sized balls.

11

Use rice flour to dust the working surface and roll out the first ball of dough into a thin circle.

12

Roll out additional balls, stacking them with rice flour in between to prevent sticking.

13

Roll out the dough to your desired thickness, ensuring it remains thin.

14

Cut the rolled dough into long rectangles or your preferred shape for samosa pockets.

15

Prepare a paste by mixing 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour with room temperature water until it reaches a flowy consistency.

16

Fold the samosa pockets using the paste to seal them, ensuring they are well-formed.
