Directions
Creamy Chicken and Garlic Picnic Pasties-Parcels With Boursin, Delectable litle pasties or pastry parcels filled with tender chunks of chicken breast and French Boursin cream Cheese, delicious! These are so easy to make, as they use cooked chicken breast, making them very handy for any leftovers you might have. France meets England in these pastry parcels, I have taken the idea of a traditional pasty, then added a little French touch with the Boursin cheese, thus dispensing with any need to make a white sauce to bind the chicken! Great for lunch boxes, picnics, lunch, supper or a light meals or snacks.NB: I would not advise re-heating these, as the chicken has already been cooked twice before – they are just as delicious warm or cold., These made 4 pies, my fianc is a vegetarian so when I buy chicken I always have loads left over as no-on to share them with. used my chicken scraps to make this, if anyone is reading the recipe and ingredients and is a bit put of, so was I as it didn’t tell you HOW to combine the ingredients, so after my mushrooms cooked in the pan I just mixed in the Philadelphia garlic and herb until it semi-melted and all combined. These parcels are the best I’ve ever had, I will continue to make these., Oh my goodness! This is so insanely delicious! I mis-read the mushrooms as 8 oz. instead of 3 but it turned out perfectly, I love mushrooms so I really enjoyed the deep mushroom flavor. I chopped them and browned them with the chicken and the salt, pepper, and parsley and then mixed in the cheese. I can’t tell you enough how much we enjoyed this. It was incredibly easy and looks and tastes like fine dining. This is going to become my go-to dish when we have company over. Thank you so much for sharing this recipe!!
