- 2 sheets Butter Puff Pastry (thawed, but kept cold approx 18 oz (510g) 12.5" x 10". (32cm x 25cm))
- 1 Chicken Breast (diced into ½ inch cubes approx 12 oz (350g))
- ½ tsp Chilli flakes
- ½ tbsp Garlic minced
- 1 tsp oregano
- ¼ tsp onion powder
- 2 tbsp white wine
- ⅓ cup sun-dried tomatoes (chopped)
- ⅓ cup heavy cream
- ⅓ cup parmesan cheese shredded
- 1 pinch salt
- 1 pinch pepper
- 2 egg yolk
- 1 tbsp milk
Steps
Pan fry chicken until golden. Add chilli flakes, garlic, oregano, onion powder, and wine. Simmer for 1 min until alcohol evaporates.
Stir in sun-dried tomatoes, cream, parmesan, salt, and pepper. Simmer until thick (2 mins). Let cool completely (crucial so the pastry doesn't melt!).
Lay one sheet of puff pastry on parchment paper.
Lightly press a 3-inch heart cutter onto the pastry to make 4 outlines (do not cut through the dough, these are just guides).
Place a heap of filling (approx. 2 tbsp) in the center of each outline. Brush a little water around the filling.
Place the second pastry sheet on top. Gently press down around the filling heaps to remove air pockets. Using a larger 4-inch heart cutter, center it over a mound and cut firmly through both sheets to create your sealed heart pocket. Repeat for all 4.
Prick a small steam vent in the center with a toothpick and brush with egg wash. Bake at 370°F (190°C) for 35–40 mins or until puffed and golden (check 20 mins in as ovens and puff pasty vary).
Serve warm with sour cream and chilli sauce.
