Provided by Anna Glover

Categories     Picnic, Snack

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 sheet ready-rolled puff pastry
3 tbsp soft cheese
1 tsp Dijon mustard (optional)
6 rashers dry-cured smoked bacon
100g mature cheddar, gruyère or Swiss cheese, grated
1 egg, beaten

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Unravel the pastry on the sheet of baking parchment it comes with, and cut into six squares. Mix the soft cheese with the mustard, if using, and a good grinding of black pepper. Divide between the middles of the pastry squares, and smooth over in a diagonal line from one corner to the opposite side.
  • Lay a bacon rasher over the soft cheese, then scatter over the cheese. Brush the two exposed corners of pastry with beaten egg, and fold over the top of the filling to join together. Brush the tops with more egg, then slide the baking parchment on to a baking sheet and bake for 15-20 mins until the cheese has melted and the pastry is golden.
  • Transfer to a cooling rack for 5-10 mins before serving warm. Will keep chilled in an airtight container for two-three days.

Time 1h10m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 tablespoon olive oil
2 cups Italian bread crumbs, divided
4 slices peppered bacon
4 (5 ounce) skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
½ cup shredded Parmesan cheese, divided
2 large eggs, well beaten

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a baking dish with olive oil, then sprinkle 3 pinches bread crumbs across the bottom.
  • Place bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned and crispy, 10 to 11 minutes. Drain bacon slices on paper towels.
  • Filet chicken breasts 90% of the way through and open like a hot dog bun. Spread 2 tablespoons chopped Parmesan cheese on one side of each breast. Top each with a bacon slice and 1 1/2 tablespoons shredded Parmesan.
  • Close the breasts. Dip in beaten egg, then in bread crumbs. Place in the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle remaining shredded Cheddar over top.
  • Cook in the preheated oven until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 35 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

Tips:

  • For the best results, use high-quality ingredients. Fresh chicken, bacon, and cheese will make a big difference in the flavor of the turnovers.
  • Be sure to cook the chicken and bacon thoroughly before assembling the turnovers. This will help to prevent the turnovers from becoming soggy.
  • If you don't have time to make your own pie crust, you can use a store-bought crust. Just be sure to thaw it completely before using it.
  • To make sure the turnovers are cooked through, bake them for the full amount of time specified in the recipe. You can check to see if they are done by inserting a toothpick into the center of a turnover. If the toothpick comes out clean, the turnovers are done.
  • Let the turnovers cool for a few minutes before serving. This will help to prevent the cheese from oozing out.
