Puff Pastry Chicken Baskets Recipe, 4th of July Joke...Aug 17 2005

Hi Y'all,
A big welcome to all of our new members, and a great thank you for
the ones that have stuck with us!

I am having a great time here in Washington. The weather sure is
different! I went from 90 degree weather during the day in Louisiana,
to 60's and 70's here!

Puff Pastry Chicken Baskets

Ingredients

4 puff pastry shells
1 cup chicken broth
3 Tablespoons butter - divided
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
8 oz sliced mushrooms
2 Tablespoons fresh parsley - minced
2 celery stalks - diced
12 oz pre-cooked chopped roasted chicken
2 Tablespoons flour
a pinch or two of cayenne to taste
1 cup white wine
salt and pepper to taste
1 cup whipping cream
1 cup shredded swiss cheese

Directions

1. Bake 4 puff pastry shells according to package directions until
browned. Remove pastry "top" gently and save. While pastries are
baking, make the chicken filling.

2. In a large sauté pan, over medium heat, melt 2 Tablespoons of
butter. Add mushrooms and celery. Cook until softened and the
mushrooms are lightly browned around the edges.

3. Add flour and the last Tablespoon of butter. This will make a roux
that will thicken the sauce. Stir well.

4. Add white wine, whipping cream, swiss cheese, and chicken broth.
Continue to cook on medium heat. The sauce will start to thicken and
bubble fairly quickly.

5. Add Worcestershire sauce, parsley, chicken, cayenne, salt and
pepper. Heat through. (keep heat on low once sauce has thickened; if
it gets too thick, you can add more wine and whipping cream to thin
it out).

6. Place pastry basket on plate and spoon chicken and sauce over top.
Place "top" of pastry on top and serve.

Serves 4
ENJOY!
