  • Total Time: 40 minutes
  • Yield: 2 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 large chicken breasts
  • 1 sheet puff pastry, thawed
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 cup mushrooms, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon fresh thyme (or ½ teaspoon dried)
  • 1 egg, beaten
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • ½ cup heavy cream
  • 1 tablespoon dijon mustard
  • salt, to taste
  • black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a pan over medium heat and add the chopped mushrooms, cooking until tender.
  2. Add the minced garlic and thyme to the mushrooms and sauté until fragrant.
  3. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper, then sear in the same pan until lightly golden.
  4. Roll out the thawed puff pastry and cut it into two sections.
  5. Spread the mushroom mixture onto each pastry section, place a chicken breast on top, and wrap the pastry around it, sealing the edges.
  6. Brush the parcels with beaten egg and bake in a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) for 25-30 minutes until golden and crisp.
  7. While the Wellingtons bake, make the sauce by melting butter in a saucepan, whisking in flour, and cooking briefly.
  8. Slowly add chicken broth, stirring well to prevent lumps, then stir in cream and Dijon mustard and simmer until thickened.
  9. Allow the Wellingtons to rest for a few minutes before slicing, and serve warm with the sauce.
