Chicken Wellington


Yes here is a chicken version of the English classic beef dish. Tailored to what you can easily find at the local supermarket. This fancy dish can really polish your reputation as a chief! Yes and it is not that hard to make.



Chicken in a golden pastry with the tastes of Cordon Bleu! A new classic to claim as your own. 



Ingredients:
2 tablespoons butter + 2 of oil
2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
salt and ground black pepper to taste
2 sliced thick bologna pieces
½ cup grated Gruyere cheese
1 tube crescent roll dough
2oz cream cheese softened
2 Tbs honey mustard

egg, slightly beaten

Directions:
Heat olive oil and butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Season chicken breasts with salt and black pepper. Cook chicken in the hot oil until golden and almost cooked through, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate.


While that browns, cut up the bologna into small pieces:


Grate the cheese into that:


In a small bowl mix the mustard into the soften cream cheese.



Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Lay out wax paper on the counter and unroll the crescent dough onto that. With a pastry brush, “paint” with the cream cheese/mustard mixture.



Cut a nice size piece of breast and slice down the middle. Place on piece on the dough. Spoon 2 Tbs of grated cheese/bologna mixture on that and top with the other piece of breast, making a sandwich.

Cover the dough around this and tuck together to seal. Place seam side down on the parchment paper.



Whisk the egg into a “wash” to brush on the dough, top and all sides.
Here we scattered some asparagus around to roast along side.

Bake for 30 to 35 minutes or until nicely golden.




Remove from oven and serve.


What a great change when you can't find a good roast of beef for this dish!
