Number Of Ingredients 12

2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons butter
8 small boneless, skinless chicken breasts
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 large onion, finely chopped
½ pound baby bella mushrooms, sliced, or more to taste
1 tablespoon minced garlic
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
2 sheets frozen puff pastry, thawed
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
egg, slightly beaten

Steps:

  • 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.
  • Place onion, mushrooms, and garlic in the same skillet; cook and stir until mushrooms lose their moisture and onions are tender, about 5 minutes. Stir in parsley.
  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Roll out each puff pastry sheet into a 14-inch square on a floured work surface. Cut each sheet into 4 equal squares. Place a chicken breast in the center of each square.
  • Combine cream cheese and Dijon mustard in a small bowl. Spread some of the cream cheese mixture over each chicken breast. Top each with 2 tablespoons of the mushroom mixture. Brush the edges of each square with water and wrap around the chicken. Place seam-side down on a baking sheet. Brush the tops with the beaten egg.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until puffed and golden brown, about 20 minutes. Remove from oven and slice in half before serving.

Fold the corners of the pastries up over the chicken and press to seal. Place the pastries seam-side down onto a baking sheet. Brush with the egg mixture.
  • Bake for 25 minutes or until the pastries are golden brown.
  • Ingredient Note: We develop our recipes using a 4-to 5-ounce skinless, boneless chicken breast half per serving. However, there are a range of sizes available in-store, from the butcher counter to the meat case and the freezer section. Use whichever you prefer- just follow the recipe as written above for the best result. If you're using larger chicken breasts they may require a little longer cooking time.

CHICKEN & MUSHROOM WELLINGTON



Chicken & mushroom wellington image

Make a celebration supper for two with this chicken and mushroom wellington. Cut into golden pastry to find a creamy, garlicky inside - perfection

Provided by Barney Desmazery

Categories     Dinner

Time 1h15m

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
320g sheet ready-rolled puff pastry
1 egg, beaten
1 tbsp butter
100g chestnut or button mushrooms, chopped
1 garlic clove, crushed
1 tsp thyme leaves
½ lemon, juiced
100g low-fat soft cheese
1 tsp Dijon or wholegrain mustard

Steps:

  • To make the filling, melt the butter in a frying pan over a medium heat until sizzling, then fry the mushrooms for 8 mins until soft and lightly browned. Add the garlic, thyme and lemon juice, turn the heat up to medium-high and cook for 1 min more until the liquid from the mushrooms has evaporated. Season, remove from the heat and leave to cool completely. Tip the mixture into a bowl with the soft cheese and mustard, then beat everything together with a wooden spoon. Put in the fridge while you prepare the chicken. Will keep covered in the fridge for up to a day.
  • Lay the chicken breasts out on a board, open out slightly, then bash gently with a meat mallet or rolling pin until they are an even thickness. Season and set aside. Unravel the pastry sheet and cut out a 16cm rectangle and an 18cm one. Lay the smaller rectangle on a sheet of baking parchment and brush with a little of the beaten egg. Lay one of the chicken breasts on top, smooth-side down. Spoon over the mushroom mixture and top with the second breast, smooth-side up, so the thicker sides of the breasts are at opposite ends to each other. Brush the exposed pastry border and the top of the chicken with more of the beaten egg, then drape over the larger pastry rectangle and tuck it in so the chicken is snugly enclosed. Trim the excess pastry into an oval, leaving a 4cm border, then crimp the border with a fork to seal. Re-roll any trimmings and use them to decorate the wellington, if you like (see tip, below). Chill for at least 1 hr or up to 24 hrs.
  • Heat the oven to 210C/190C fan/gas 6½ with a baking tray inside. Brush the wellington all over with most of the remaining beaten egg. Carefully lift it on its baking parchment onto the hot baking tray and bake for 25 mins, then brush with the remaining beaten egg and season with sea salt. Bake for another 10-15 mins until light golden brown. Rest for 5 mins before carefully carving in half.

CHICKEN WELLINGTON RECIPE BY TASTY



Chicken Wellington Recipe by Tasty image

"Fancy" doesn't have to mean "expensive." This elegant chicken Wellington can be made with pantry ingredients so you can save money without skimping on flavor! In this recipe, we use chicken breast instead of the traditional beef tenderloin, wrapped in puff pastry, sautéed mushrooms, and dried herbs and spices to recreate that classic Wellington flavor. You'll even learn how to make your own easy pan gravy from scratch.

Provided by Tasty

Categories     Dinner

Time 1h55m

Yield 2 serving

Number Of Ingredients 19

12 oz cremini mushroom, stemmed and wiped clean
4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, divided
½ teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon onion powder
½ teaspoon dried thyme
2 teaspoons dried parsley
1 ½ teaspoons kosher salt, divided
¾ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, divided
1 boneless chicken breast, large
1 tablespoon dijon mustard
4 slices prosciutto
1 sheet frozen puff pastry, thawed
large egg, beaten
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons all purpose flour
2 cups chicken stock
½ teaspoon kosher salt
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
2 teaspoons dried parsley

Steps:

  • Add the mushrooms to the bowl of a food processor and pulse until coarsely chopped, about 18-20 pulses.
  • Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the mushrooms, garlic powder, onion powder, dried thyme, dried parsley, ½ teaspoon salt, and ¼ teaspoon black pepper and stir to fully combine. Cook, stirring often, until all of the liquid in the pan has evaporated, about 8 minutes. Turn off the heat and transfer the mushroom mixture to a bowl to cool. Wipe the pan clean with a paper towel.
  • Season the chicken breast on both sides with the remaining teaspoon of salt and ½ teaspoon pepper. Tie the chicken breast with 4 pieces of butcher's twine to create an even cylindrical shape.
  • Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil in the skillet over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, add the chicken breast and cook until browned all over, about 10 minutes. Transfer the chicken breast to a plate and set the pan aside to make the pan gravy later.
  • Remove the butcher's twine using a pair of scissors and brush the chicken all over with the Dijon mustard. Allow the chicken breast to cool to room temperature.
  • On 2 overlapping sheets of plastic wrap, lay out the puff pastry sheet. Arrange overlapping strips of prosciutto over the dough in an even square, leaving a 1-inch border around the edges of the pastry. Spread the mushroom mixture evenly over the prosciutto.
  • Place the chicken breast at the bottom of the mushroom mixture and tightly and evenly wrap with the prosciutto and puff pastry, using the plastic wrap to help wrap it tightly and seal the ends. Wrap in the plastic, tying the ends together to help keep the Wellington's shape. Chill in the refrigerator for 15 minutes.
  • Arrange a rack in the lower third of the oven. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Remove the Wellington from the plastic wrap and place seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Using the back of a paring knife, make a crosshatch pattern on top of the pastry, making sure not to cut all the way through. Brush the pastry all over with the beaten egg.
  • Transfer the baking sheet to the oven to bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the puff pastry is golden brown and the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°F (75°C). Let the Wellington rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing into 1-1½-inch-thick slices.
  • While the Wellington rests, make the pan gravy: In the pan with the leftover chicken juices, heat the olive oil over medium heat. When the oil is warm, add the flour and cook, stirring frequently, until fragrant and toasted, about 2 minutes. Add the chicken stock and simmer until the sauce is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon, 4-5 minutes. Stir in the salt, pepper, and parsley and transfer to a bowl or gravy boat to serve.
  • Serve the Wellington warm with the pan gravy and sides of your choice.
  • Enjoy!

CHICKEN WELLINGTON WITH MUSHROOM VELOUTE SAUCE



Chicken Wellington With Mushroom Veloute Sauce image

This recipe is a little more involved but well worth the effort, in my opinion. This is a nice dish to serve when entertaining because it looks impressive. I've included a separate recipe for the mushroom sauce, which tops the chicken wellington. I really hope you enjoy this special recipe! *The prep time does not include 2 hours of refrigeration* Note: You can make the mushroom sauce earlier in the day and reheat while cooking dinner. It just cuts down on the amount of things you have to do at dinner time. ;)

Provided by LifeIsGood

Categories     Chicken Breast

Time 1h30m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

6 (8 ounce) boneless skinless chicken breasts
2 cups white wine
1 tablespoon fresh basil, chopped
1 tablespoon fresh oregano, chopped
6 sheets puff pastry sheets (I use the Pepperidge Farm brand, check to see how many sheets come in each box)
1 large egg
2 tablespoons water
10 1/2 ounces boursin cheese (this should equal to 2 packages)
2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (optional)
2 cups chicken stock
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided
1/2 cup mushroom, sliced
2 tablespoons shallots, minced
2 tablespoons flour
salt and pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Prep Chicken:.
  • In a mixing bowl, combine white wine, basil, oregano and mix well.
  • Place chicken breasts in a shallow dish and pour the wine mixture on top to marinate. Refrigerate for 2 hours, turning the chicken breasts every half hour to insure all areas are marinated.
  • Prepare the Mushroom Veloute Sauce:.
  • In a saucepan, bring the chicken stock to a boil.
  • In a saute pan, over medium heat, melt 2 Tablespoons butter and saute mushrooms and shallots until tender.
  • In another medium saucepan, over medium heat, melt the other 2 Tablespoons of butter, slowly stir in flour to make a roux. Cook for about 2 minutes, being careful not to burn.
  • Slowly add (HOT) chicken stock and whisk until smooth. Bring this sauce to a boil, then reduce heat to simmer.
  • Add mushrooms and shallots, salt and pepper to taste, and simmer for 10 minutes - then keep warm OR reheat while the chicken is cooking.
  • Chicken Wellington:.
  • Divide each Boursin into thirds (so you have 6 portions).
  • Remove chicken breasts from the marinade, reserving.
  • Put the marinade in a saute pan (over medium heat) until the sauce gets hot, then add the chicken breasts and poach for 5-10 minutes, flipping halfway through. *The timing really depends on how thick the breasts are. Just make sure that the chicken is mostly cooked through*.
  • Remove the chicken breasts and let cool for about 20 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
  • Cut each puff pastry sheet in half. Using 6 halves, place each breast in the center and top with a portion of boursin cheese. Place each remaining puff pastry on top of eacj chicken breast, pinching the puff pastry to seal around the chicken. Cut any excess puff pastry off.
  • In a small bowl, make an egg wash by mixing the egg and water together, then brush the top of the Wellington with egg wash.
  • Bake for 25 minutes. (To get a golden brown color, you may need to broil for 1-2 minutes after baking.).
  • Remove from oven and place each Wellington in the center of the serving plate and top with Mushroom Veloute Sauce. Sprinkle with chopped parsley and serve.

VEGETARIAN MUSHROOM WELLINGTON



Vegetarian Mushroom Wellington image

Classic beef Wellington is a technical feat in which a tenderloin is topped with foie gras or mushroom duxelles, then wrapped in puff pastry and baked. This vegetarian version is less exacting yet just as impressive. Seared portobello mushrooms are layered with apple cider-caramelized onions and sautéed mushrooms, which are seasoned with soy sauce for flavor and bolstered with walnuts for texture. The rich mushroom filling is vegan, and the entire dish can easily be made vegan, too. Swap in vegan puff pastry, a butter substitute in the port reduction and caramelized onions, and an egg substitute for brushing the puff pastry. If you want to prepare ahead, sauté the mushrooms and onions in advance and refrigerate them, then assemble the dish the day you plan to bake and serve it. Prepare the port reduction as the Wellington bakes, or skip it entirely and serve with cranberry sauce for a touch of tangy sweetness.

Categories     dinner, pastries, vegetables, main course

Time 3h

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 31

4 large portobello mushrooms, each about 3 inches wide (8 to 10 ounces total)
1/2 cup plus 5 tablespoons olive oil
Kosher salt and black pepper
2 pounds mixed mushrooms, such as shiitake, oyster and cremini
4 shallots, finely chopped (about 1 packed cup)
6 garlic cloves, finely chopped
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh rosemary
1/3 cup port, or 1 to 2 tablespoons good-quality aged balsamic vinegar
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
1 cup finely chopped toasted walnuts (about 4 ounces)
Ice, for cooling
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 medium yellow onions (about 1 pound), peeled and cut into 1/4-inch rounds
3/4 teaspoon light or dark brown sugar
1 1/4 teaspoons kosher salt
3/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 cup apple cider or apple juice
1 tablespoon good-quality aged balsamic vinegar (optional)
All-purpose flour, for dusting
1 (14-ounce) package puff pastry
1 large egg, beaten
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 large shallot, minced
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 teaspoons whole black peppercorns
1 1/2 cups good-quality port
1 1/2 cups vegetable stock
3 fresh thyme sprigs
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
Kosher salt and black pepper

Steps:

  • Wipe the portobello mushrooms clean using barely moistened paper towels. Remove the stems, then slice off the excess mushroom rim that curls over the gills. (You are making sure the stem side has a flat surface so it will sear properly.) Reserve the stems and scraps for use in Step 2. Brush the portobello mushroom caps on both sides with 3 tablespoons olive oil and season generously with salt and pepper. Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large (12-inch) nonstick skillet over medium-high and cook the mushrooms, gill-side down, until caramelized, 4 to 5 minutes, then flip and cook until softened, about 4 more minutes. Transfer to a wire rack, gill-side down, to cool.
  • Prepare the mushroom filling: Separate and reserve any mushroom stems. Roughly chop about two-thirds of the mixed mushrooms, then working in batches, transfer the roughly chopped mushrooms to a food processor and pulse until chopped into small pieces. (They should range from 1/4 inch to 1/2 inch in size.) Transfer the chopped mushrooms to a large bowl. By hand, finely chop the remaining mixed mushrooms and stems and the reserved portobello mushroom stems and trimmings into 1/4-inch pieces; add them to the large bowl. (Chopping most of the mixed mushrooms in the food processor will save you some time, but you'll want to chop some by hand for texture.)
  • Prepare an ice bath in a large bowl. (You'll use this to quickly cool the cooked mushrooms in Step 4. If preparing in advance, you can simply let the mixture cool to room temperature, then refrigerate.) Wipe out the skillet. Working in two batches, warm 1/4 cup olive oil over medium-high heat. Add about half the mushrooms, shallots, garlic and rosemary, and season lightly with salt and generously with pepper. (You'll add soy sauce later, so avoid overseasoning at this stage.) Cook, stirring occasionally, until caramelized and tender, about 10 minutes. Transfer to a medium bowl and repeat with the remaining 1/4 cup oil and the remaining mushrooms, shallots, garlic and rosemary.
  • Once the second batch of chopped mushrooms is cooked and caramelized, return the first batch to the skillet. Add the port, soy sauce and thyme leaves and cook over medium-high, stirring occasionally, until the liquid evaporates, 3 to 5 minutes. (If using balsamic vinegar instead of port, reduce the cook time to 1 to 2 minutes.) Transfer the mushroom mixture back to the medium bowl and stir in the walnuts. Set the bowl over the prepared ice bath to cool, stirring occasionally, at least 20 minutes.
  • Prepare the cider-caramelized onions: Wipe out the skillet, then melt the butter over medium heat. Add the onions, sprinkle with the sugar, salt and pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally, until starting to soften, about 5 minutes. Add the cider and cook, stirring every few minutes, until the liquid evaporates and the onions are caramelized, about 15 minutes. Stir in the vinegar, if using, then transfer to a bowl to cool.
  • Heat the oven to 400 degrees. Place a large piece of parchment paper on your work surface and lightly dust it with flour. Unfold your thawed puff pastry and set it on the parchment. Using a lightly floured rolling pin, roll the pastry out into a 13-by-16-inch rectangle. Transfer the parchment paper and puff pastry to a large sheet pan. Rotate the sheet pan, if needed, so that one of the 16-inch sides is closest to you. Arrange half the cooked mushroom mixture in a strip in the center of the puff pastry (it should be about 4-by-10 inches), leaving a 1½-inch border at the ends. Arrange the caramelized onions in a single, 3-inch-wide strip on top of the mushroom mixture, leaving about ½ inch of the mushrooms exposed on both sides. Lay the portobello mushrooms on top of the onions in a single line, stem-side down. (If the portobellos are too large to all fit in a row, square off edges so the cut sides lay snugly without overlapping.) Spoon the remaining mushroom mixture on top of the filling, covering the portobello mushrooms, then gently pack the mushroom mixture to form an even layer on top. (You can shape this the same way you might shape a freeform meatloaf.)
  • To assemble, lift one side of the puff pastry over the mushroom filling to almost completely cover it. Brush the surface of the puff pastry covering the mushrooms with the beaten egg. Lift the remaining puff pastry flap over the egg-washed puff pastry, gently stretching it if need be to create a second layer of puff pastry on top, then gently press the top layer of pastry onto the lower layer using your fingertips to seal. Brush the insides of the short ends of the puff pastry and press to seal. Trim any parchment paper that extends beyond the sheet pan.
  • Brush the exposed puff pastry on top with the remaining beaten egg. Decorate the top of the puff pastry as you like: Create a cross-hatch pattern by gently slicing through only the top layer of puff pastry in parallel lines, then cutting parallel lines in another direction. (Apply very little pressure, as you only want to cut through the top layer of puff pastry, not the second layer.) You can also slice small decorative vents in the puff pastry (be sure to slice all the way through both layers of puff pastry), or top with additional strips or shapes made from egg-washed puff pastry.
  • Transfer to the middle rack in the oven and bake until puff pastry is deep golden and flaky, 45 to 50 minutes. Let cool slightly on the baking sheet, about 10 minutes.
  • While the Wellington bakes, prepare the optional port reduction: In a medium saucepan, heat the oil over medium. Add the shallot, garlic and peppercorns, and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 3 minutes. Add the port, stock and thyme, and cook over medium-high until the sauce is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon, 25 to 30 minutes. Strain the sauce, discarding the solids. (You should have about 1/2 cup sauce.) Cover and set aside until ready to serve. When ready to serve, warm the sauce over medium. Once warmed, whisk in the butter, season to taste with salt and pepper and serve.
  • To serve the mushroom Wellington, cut it crosswise into 8 even slabs. (Each slab will include a pretty cross-section showcasing the halved portobello mushroom in the center; this is considered the presentation side.) Serve each piece presentation-side up. Pass with port reduction for drizzling on top.
