We eat a lot of chicken at our house, so when I saw this recipe in Rachael Ray’s Big Orange Book I was excited to try it. It held up to all my expectations. It had some great flavors with the added jam, and was light and crispy. I know puff pastry isn’t great for you, but all things in moderation is my philosophy. Overall this was such a quick and easy meal, and I loved that it was so easy to clean up. Well, might have been a little better if I sprayed my cooking sheet first!

Recipe: Love Birds- Chicken In Pastry

Love Birds Chicken In Pastry

Cookbook: Big Orange Book

Total Time: 30 minutes (15-20 minutes is baking time in the oven!)

Husband Says: “This is good, good amount of flavor, I like the jelly.”

Notes: I did not use fig preserves but raspberry jelly, which was so wonderful. I also used provolone cheese, I wish I used a little more cheese then I did. So feel free to take your own liberties and use a different jam or whatever cheese you have on hand! I’m sure it’ll turn out great!

Ingredients

place cheese on pastry

add your choice of jam

place chicken on top

bake at 350 degrees for 15-20 minutes
