Time 35m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 9

olive oil cooking spray
2 large chicken breasts
1 pinch salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
½ large avocado, finely chopped
2 slices cooked bacon, diced
½ cup panko breadcrumbs
½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons pesto

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Lightly spritz bottom and sides of a medium baking pan with olive oil spray.
  • Using a sharp knife, carefully slice into the side of each chicken breast to form a pocket but do not slice all the way through. Season the insides and outsides with salt and pepper.
  • In a small bowl, combine diced avocado and the bacon. Divide the mixture in half and stuff each chicken breast. Use toothpicks to secure the pockets and place into baking pan.
  • Mix together panko, mozzarella cheese, and olive oil in a small bowl. Brush 1 tablespoon pesto on top of each breast. Cover each breast with the panko mixture, pressing into the pesto so mixture adheres.
  • Roast in the preheated oven until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 20 to 25 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

CHICKEN AVOCADO AND MUSHROOM STUFFED VOL-AU-VENTS



Chicken Avocado and Mushroom Stuffed Vol-Au-Vents image

This is so simple to make and very yummy, I usually serve this in the really large vol-au-vent shells, but I could not get any, so I had to serve in medium ones. These are not ideal as you can not get much filling into them, I ended up pouring some of the filling over after taking a photo, so we were not eating just pastry cases with no filling, which is ok but does not look the most appealing. I usually buy the 12.5cm cases just so you can get an idea of the size compared to the ones in the photo.

Categories     Chicken Breast

Time 50m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 (12 1/2 cm) pastry vol-au-vent cases (read note above with regards to the ones used in the photo.)
olive oil
700 g chicken breasts, cut into chunks
3 garlic cloves, crushed
300 g mushrooms, sliced thinly
1 leek, sliced thinly
1 (60 g) packet cream of chicken soup (The one I buy makes up 1 liter)
2 cups milk
1 cup chicken stock or 1 cup vegetable stock
1 teaspoon dried tarragon
1 large avocado, chopped

Steps:

  • Pre-heat oven to 180 degrees Celsius.
  • Heat oil in a pan cook chicken in batches until browned, remove and set to one side.
  • Heat a little more oil in the same pan, add leeks, garlic and mushrooms, cook until leeks and mushrooms have softened, return chicken to pan and removed from heat.
  • In a saucepan whisk soup powder with milk and stock, bring to the boil to thicken, stir in tarragon. (my packet mix requires one more cup of liquid than I use, so that I end up with a thicker version than a soup, to use as the sauce, so bear this in mind.).
  • Pour soup mix into pan with chicken and mushroom mix, stir to combine, gently stir in avocado.
  • Place spoonfuls of chicken mix into pastry cases, bake in oven for about 5-8 Min's until hot.
  • I served our with honeyed carrots and buttered spinach.
