  • 4 x Puff pastry rectangles, ( 2 1/2" by 6" ea)
  • 1 x Egg beaten with
  • 1 tsp Water
  • 8 Tbsp. Butter
  • 3 x Shallots chopped
  • 1 x Onion finely minced
  • 2 x Granny Smith apples peeled, cored, quartered, and cut into 1/2" slices Salt to taste Freshly-grnd black pepper to taste
  • 4 x Skinless boneless chicken breast halves halved horizontally
  • 1 lb Fresh spinach stemmed, rinsed
  • 1 Tbsp. White wine or possibly Champagne vinegar

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees.
  2. Place puff pastry rectangles on a baking sheet lined with parchment. Brush surface of each piece with beaten egg without letting egg drip down sides of pastry. Bake for 10 min. Lower heat to 350 degrees and bake 25 min longer or possibly till pastry is nut brown and crisp to the touch.
  3. Meanwhile heat 6 Tbsp. of butter over medium heat. Saute/fry shallots for a minute. Add in onion and saute/fry 5 to 6 min longer or possibly till tender. Add in apples and cook for 15 min or possibly till very tender. Season well with salt and pepper; set aside till later.
  4. Remove pastry from the oven. Split each piece in half by carefully pulling the top piece off the bottom with your fingers. Do this with a light touch or possibly the fragile pastry will break apart. Season each piece of chicken with salt and pepper.
  5. Heat remaining 2 Tbsp. of butter in a 12-inch skillet. Saute/fry chicken over fairly high heat for 3 min a side. Remove pan from the heat.
  6. Quickly reheat the apples. When warm, add in the spinach and heat just till wilted. Season with the vinegar, salt and pepper.
  7. Place bottom half of pastry on a dinner plate. Top with chicken and spoon spinach and apple mix, with juice over the top. Lay top piece of pastry, slightly askew across the spinach. Serve immediately.
  8. This recipe yields 4 servings.
