Provided by Tasty

Categories     Lunch

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

4 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
4 tablespoons all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
2 cups chicken broth, good-quality
salt, to taste
freshly ground black pepper, to taste
1 pinch cayenne pepper, optional, to taste
2 tablespoons heavy cream, plus more for egg wash
2 lb cooked boneless, skinless chicken, shredded
½ lb carrot, peeled, cut into 1/2-inch (1cm) pieces
½ lb red-skinned potato, cut into 1/2-inch (1cm) pieces
½ cup frozen peas, or shelled fresh peas
½ lb puff pastry, defrosted following package instructions
1 black truffle, optional, to taste
1 large egg

Steps:

  • Melt the butter in a large, deep saucepan.
  • Add the flour and whisk to ensure there are no lumps before adding the chicken stock. Cook for 5-10 minutes while continuously stirring.
  • Check the consistency by dipping the back of a spoon into the sauce and running your finger along the spoon. You want the sauce to cling to the spoon and not run over the swipe you made.
  • Continue to cook and stir the sauce over medium heat until you reach the correct consistency. Season with the salt, pepper, and cayenne (if using). Taste the sauce and see if your sauce needs more seasoning.
  • Add the cream and stir to combine.
  • Add the shredded chicken, carrots, potatoes, and peas to the sauce. Cook the vegetables in the sauce for 2-3 minutes.
  • Transfer the filling to a clean bowl and chill in the refrigerator for 1 hour, or until cool.
  • Preheat the oven to 400˚F (200˚C).
  • Roll out the puff pastry, using a bit of extra flour to ensure the pastry doesn't stick to your work surface. Use a bowl or plate about an inch (2 cm) larger than the dish you are cooking your pot pie in as a guide to cut out your pastry.
  • Carefully spoon the chilled filling into oven-proof serving bowls.
  • Break the egg in a small bowl and add a tablespoon of water or cream. Whisk with a fork.
  • Brush the egg wash on the edges and rim of your dishes.
  • If desired, shave truffles over the filling. Lay the pastry rounds over the top, being careful not to stretch the pastry. Seal the edges of the pastry by lightly pushing it onto the rim of your dish to make sure it is secure.
  • Brush the top and sides with more egg wash.
  • Place the pot pies on a large baking sheet and bake for 25-35 minutes, until the pastry is a nice golden, dark brown and there are no more grayish raw patches.
  • Let cool for 5 minutes before serving.
  • Enjoy!

WOLFGANG PUCK'S CHICKEN WITH CHARDONNAY AND FRESH HERBS



Wolfgang Puck's Chicken With Chardonnay and Fresh Herbs image

I found some tarragon recipes on here but this goat cheese recipe has to take the cake! I don't think I would've ever consider myself a goat cheese person but you can't deny how good this recipe is! I think Wolfgang Puck's recipe is one of the best tasting recipes I have ever made! Also, the sauce directions may seem lengthy but it was easily done while the chicken was cooking.

Categories     Chicken Breast

Time 25m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 large boneless skinless chicken breast halves
4 ounces fresh goat cheese
1 tablespoon chopped fresh tarragon
1 tablespoon chopped fresh Italian parsley
1 tablespoon chopped fresh chervil (I used curly leafed Parsley)
fresh ground white pepper
salt
4 teaspoons extra virgin olive oil
1 minced shallot
1 cup good california Chardonnay wine
1 cup chicken stock
1/2 cup heavy cream
4 tablespoons unsalted butter

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450°F or heat a grill until hot.
  • In a bowl, mix the goat cheese, half the herbs and white pepper to taste.
  • Either loosen the skin of the chicken breasts or (if you use skinless breasts like I did) horizontally slice a thin layer of meat on the top of the breast almost all the way so that there is a flap.
  • Take your cheese mix and put some under the skin or flap of each breast and pat it down to spread the mixture out.
  • Season the chicken lightly with salt and pepper and sprinkle with extra virgin olive oil.
  • Roast in the oven for 15 to 20 minutes total or cook on the grill for 10 to 12 minutes per side.
  • While the chicken is cooking, put the shallot and chardonnay in a saucepan, raise to a boil and cook until the mixture is reduce to a glaze, about 1/4 cup total.
  • Add the stock and reduce again, but by half.
  • Add the cream and continue to cook until the sauce lightly coats the back of a spoon. Note that it is a sauce and will probably still be thin in consistency.
  • Finally, add the butter in pieces to the saucepan, thoroughly melting before adding the next piece.
  • Add salt and pepper to taste.
  • Strain into a clean saucepan and add the remaining chopped herbs.
  • Pour the sauce onto dinner plates and place sliced chicken breasts on top. Enjoy!
