Chicken Aloutte
As submitted by Susan:
"My sister-in-law gave me a great recipe that she calls "Chicken
Aloutte." I don't know if she saw this somewhere, made it up, or if it was
given to her by a friend. She made it for me when I brought my firstborn
home from the hospital, and now I make it every few weeks."
Thank you, Susan! (and your sister-in-law)
Ingredients:
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 package (2 sheets) puff pastry
1 4 oz. package Aloutte cheese (I use garlic/herb)
salt & pepper
1 egg
Tenderize the chicken breasts; salt and pepper to taste.
Thaw the puff pastry according to the package.
Roll out each sheet to so that when cut in half, will be large enough to wrap the chicken in. (cut sheet in half) Spread 1/4 package of cheese spread on the puff pastry in the middle. Place chicken on top, "Wrap" the pastry around the chicken, sealing. Mix the egg with 1 tablespoon of water. Place chicken packets, folded side down in a baking dish or on a baking stone
(I use my Pampered Chef baking stone). Brush with the egg mixture.
Bake in preheated oven 425 degrees for 25-30 min. until chicken is 165
degrees or so.
I usually serve with fruit, wild rice, and a salad.
