Puffed Chicken Alouette Recipe
Ingredients
- One (17-ounce) package frozen puff pastry sheets, thawed
- One (4-ounce) container garlic and spice flavored Alouette cheese
- 6 skinless and boneless chicken breast halves
- salt
- pepper
- 1 egg
- water
Method
Unfold pastry sheets and roll each into a 12 by 14 inch rectangle on a floured surface. Cut the first sheet into 4 rectangles. Cut the second sheet into two 6 x 7 inch rectangles. In the other half of the sheet, cut strips about 1/4 inch wide.
Spread 1/6 of the cheese spread onto each chicken breast. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place each breast onto the center of each small rectangle of pastry. Sprinkle water onto the edges of pastry which extend beyond the chicken. Pull the edges of the pastry up around the breast, overlapping the edges to secure pastry. Place bundles, seams down, on a lightly greased baking sheet.
Combine egg and 1 tablespoon of water. Brush mixture over bundles. Bake at 400 degrees for 25 minutes or until golden.
Serves: 6
