Steps:
- Cut a lengthwise slit in every chicken breast to within a 1/2 inch of the the other side, open so they lay flat.
- Cover each chicken breast with plastic wrap; pound to 1/8 inch thickness. Remove plastic wrap and sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper.
- Stir half of the thyme into each carton of cream cheese and set aside.
- Place spinach leaves over chicken breasts.
- Spoon 2 Tbs. of the cream cheese mixture down the center of each chicken breast.
- Sprinkle the toasted pecans over the cream cheese and lightly press so that they stick.
- Roll up the chicken breasts to cover the filling and tuck in the ends.
- Unroll the puff pastry; cut into 8 even portions. Roll each into an 8-in.x7-in. rectangle.
- Combine egg and cold water; brush over edges of pastry.
- Place chicken at one short end; roll up tightly and tuck in ends as you go.
- Place pockets on a greased cookie sheet. Brush them with remaining egg and water mixture, and sprinkle with poppy seeds.
- Bake at 350 degrees for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown.
