Instructions
 

  • Here’s an instruction list for your "Chicken and Cheese Jalousie Recipe":

Instructions:

    Preheat the Oven:

    • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

    Prepare the Filling:

    • Heat olive oil in a medium pan over medium heat.
    • Add the chopped onion and garlic, and sauté until soft and fragrant (about 3-4 minutes).
    • Add the shredded chicken to the pan, stirring to combine with the onions and garlic. Season with thyme, salt, and pepper. Set aside to cool.

    Prepare the Pastry:

    • Roll out the puff pastry on a lightly floured surface. If using store-bought puff pastry, unfold it carefully.
    • Cut the pastry into two rectangles (or more depending on the size you want your Jalousies to be).

    Make the Cheese Mixture:

    • In a small bowl, mix together the shredded mozzarella, cheddar, and cream cheese until well combined.

    Assemble the Jalousie:

    • Place a generous amount of the chicken
    • Top the chicken with a spoonful of the cheese mixture.
    • Carefully fold the pastry over to cover the filling, creating a pocket. Pinch the edges together to seal, and press gently to flatten.

    Egg Wash:

    • Brush the top of the pastry with the beaten egg to give it a golden, crispy finish while baking.

    Bake the Jalousie:

    • Place the filled pastry on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
    • Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and puffed.

    Serve:

    • Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing.
    • Garnish with fresh chopped parsley for an added touch of color.

    Enjoy:

    • Serve your delicious Chicken and Cheese Jalousie warm with a side salad or your favorite dipping sauce.
    • This step-by-step process ensures you create a flaky, cheesy, and flavorful dish!
