Chicken and leek are favourite combinations of mine and to be honest, so is anything wrapped in puff pastry! 
Creamy Chicken & Leek Parcels
Prep Time 10 min
Cook Time 15 min
Total Time 25 min
Ingredients
  1. 40g butter
  2. 1 leek, white stem finely sliced
  3. 1 ½ teaspoon minced garlic
  4. 600 grams chicken breast fillets
  5. 3 Tablespoon cornflour
  6. 1 ½ cups chicken stock
  7. ½ cup cream
  8. 4 sheets puff pastry
  9. 1 egg, lightly beaten
Instructions
  1. In a large frying pan add butter & melt over high heat. Add leek & garlic & cook for 3 mins or until leek softens.
  2. Roughly dice chicken (into pieces approx 1cm) and add to pan. Cook over high heat until chicken is browned.
  3. Mix cornflour & stock together and add to chicken mixture. Add cream. Reduce heat to medium & stir for a few minutes or until sauce thickens.
  4. Set aside to allow mixture to cool. To speed up the process, refrigerate mixture or spread out onto a tray.
  5. Preheat oven to 200ÂșC.
  6. Cut each sheet of pastry in half (giving you 2 large rectangles). Spoon some mixture onto one half of each piece. Fold the pastry over to enclose the filling and pinch edges to seal. I usually fold over the edges to stop mixture from running out. Cut a slit in the top of each one.
  7. Place pastry squares onto lined oven trays and brush the top with beaten egg. Bake in preheated oven for 15 mins or until golden.
