Best 5 Easy Chicken Mushroom Pastries Recipes

EASY CHICKEN & MUSHROOM PASTRIES

Steps:

• Thinly slice chicken breasts and lightly brown in a wok/ pan, using a little olive oil.
• Add thinly sliced mushrooms and leeks to pan, cook until just softened (only about 1 1/2 minutes).
• Add extra-light sour cream, shallots, mustard, salt and pepper, cook until combined (about 1 minute). Set aside.
• Using 2 phyllo pastry sheets per pastry, place 1/6 of the mixture in centre and gently fold.
• How you fold is up to you- -I recommend folding sheets in half first to prevent tearing.
• Place folded parcels on baking paper-lined oven dish, and lightly spray with canola oil.
• Sprinkle with mixed herbs.
• Bake in moderate oven (180°C) for 10-15 minutes, or until pastry is crisp and chicken mixture heated.
• To brown pastry, remove from oven and place under grill for about 1 minute.
• Watch them though, they brown very quickly!
• Serve with a side of green salad or veggies.

CREAMY CHICKEN AND MUSHROOM PIE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Melt butter in a frying pan over medium heat. Add oil. Add chicken and cook and stir until browned, 5 to 7 minutes. Add flour and stir until chicken is coated in flour.
• Stir in mushrooms, ham, green onion, and garlic. Slowly add 1/4 cup milk while stirring. Cook until mixture is creamy, adding more milk if needed. Season with salt and pepper. Cook and stir for 2 to 3 more minutes, then transfer to a medium casserole dish or divide into separate small ramekins.
• Wait until the mixture has cooled slightly, 5 to 10 minutes. Put puff pastry over top.
• Bake in the preheated oven until pastry has browned, 10 to 15 minutes.

EASY CHICKEN QUICHE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a 9-inch pie dish with cooking spray.
• Line the prepared pie dish with puff pastry, covering base and sides. Trim excess pastry. Brush bottom with Dijon mustard.
• Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add chopped green onions and cook until tender, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook for 1 minute more. Mix in chicken, and cook for 1 minute more.
• Whisk eggs, heavy cream, salt, nutmeg, ground black pepper, and Italian seasoning together in a bowl.
• Layer 1/2 of the Gouda cheese over the puff pastry and top with chicken mixture. Pour in egg mixture. Sprinkle the remaining Gouda cheese on top.
• Bake in the preheated oven until set and golden, about 25 minutes.

EASY CHICKEN-N-PASTRY

Steps:

• Rinse chicken and discard giblets.
• In a large pot boil the chicken with bay leaves, salt and pepper.
• Remove the chicken to a platter to cool; once cool enough to handle, remove meat from the bones.
• Skim the fat from the broth and add enough water to get 4 or 5 qts (I use a skimmer cup).
• Bring broth to a rolling boil and drop the frozen pastry strips in a few at a time, stirring to separate and return to a boil before dropping in more.
• When all the strips are in the pot, reduce heat to medium-low and let boil a few minutes.
• Reduce heat to low and stir in chicken meat and cream of chicken soup, stirring until chicken soup is incorporated.
• Season to taste with black pepper- should already be salty enough from the cream of chicken soup, but taste and add salt if necessary.
• Remove from heat, cover and let stand 15 minutes before serving.
• I serve this with cornbread; green peas are a good side dish.

CHICKEN WITH MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

• In skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Brown both sides of chicken in skillet. Place chicken on top of mushrooms, arrange remaining mushrooms on chicken, and top with mozzarella cheese. Add chicken broth to pan.
• Bake in preheated oven for 30 to 35 minutes, or until chicken is no longer pink and juices run clear.
