Preparation Steps
1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2
Drain the canned tuna and place it in a bowl. Finely chop the red onion, dice the bell pepper, and finely chop the parsley.
3
Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the red onion and sauté for 2 minutes. Then, add the bell pepper and sauté for another 3 minutes.
4
Add the sautéed vegetables to the tuna, then mix in the cream cheese, parsley, salt, and pepper to taste.
5
Roll out the puff pastry on a lightly floured surface and cut it into equal-sized triangles. Place a portion of the filling on the wider end of each triangle.
6
Carefully roll up the triangles into croissant shapes, starting from the wider end. Be careful not to let the filling spill out.
7
Brush the tops of the croissants with the beaten egg to give them a beautiful golden-brown color while baking.
8
Place the croissants on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown.
9
Let the croissants cool for a few minutes before serving warm or slightly cooled.
