BEEF EN CROUTE WITH MARSALA SAUCE
My husband came up with the idea of having beef en croute with Marsala sauce, I came up with the recipe. You can use any steak you like. We actually bought a small piece of topside and cut it into steaks, also, with the size of steak, use as much or as little as you like, for your personal appetite. I served it with creamy mashed potato and carrots. I actually froze two of the parcels before cooking to have another day and these can be defrosted and re-heated as you like. You can easily make more or less of the sauce by halving or doubling the ingredients.

CHICKEN MARSALA EN CROUTE
I love puff pastry and chicken Marsala, so I decided to combine the two. The result is a very special meal perfect for Sunday dinner or any special occasion. Be sure to keep the puff pastry chilled so it is easier to work with. -Lorraine Russo, Mahwah, New Jersey

Steps:
- Sprinkle the chicken with salt and pepper. Heat the oil in a heavy large skillet over high heat. Add the chicken and cook just until brown, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer the chicken to a plate and cool slightly.
- While the chicken cools, melt 2 tablespoons of butter to the same skillet over medium-high heat, then add the onion and saute until tender, about 2 minutes. Add the mushrooms and garlic and saute until the mushrooms are tender and the juices evaporate, about 12 minutes. Add the wine and simmer until it is reduced by half, about 4 minutes. Stir in the mascarpone and mustard. Cut the chicken breasts crosswise into 1/3-inch-thick slices. Return the chicken and any accumulated juices to the skillet. Simmer, uncovered, over medium-low heat until the chicken is just cooked through and the sauce thickens slightly, about 2 minutes. Stir in the chopped parsley. Season the sauce, to taste, with salt and pepper.
- Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the fettuccine and cook until al dente, stirring occasionally, about 8 minutes. Drain. Toss the fettuccine with 3 tablespoons of butter and season, to taste, with salt and pepper. Swirl the fettuccine onto serving plates. Spoon the chicken mixture over top. Garnish with parsley sprigs and serve.

Tips:
- For the perfect puff pastry, use a high-quality butter and make sure it is very cold before rolling it out.
- When searing the beef, be sure to get a nice brown crust on all sides. This will help develop flavor and prevent the meat from drying out.
- Allow the beef to rest before slicing it. This will help the juices redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful dish.
- When making the Marsala sauce, be sure to reduce the wine until it is syrupy and flavorful.
- If you don't have any Marsala wine on hand, you can substitute another dry white wine, such as Chardonnay or Pinot Grigio.
