Time 28m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

12 ounces puff pastry
1 egg yolk
1/2 cup grated mozzarella cheese
8 slices bacon, cooked until just crisped, plus 4 slices fully crisped and chopped
3 -4 medium heirloom tomatoes, (res, orange and yellow), sliced into 3/4-inch rounds, plus 1 chopped
2 cups shredded romaine lettuce
1/3 cup ranch dressing
2 tablespoons chopped chives
kosher salt
ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper; set aside.
  • Unroll puff pastry dough and cut into 8 equal rectangles. Transfer the rectangles to the prepared baking sheet. Beat the egg yolk with 2 teaspoons water. Use a pastry brush and brush the edges of the rectangles with the egg wash. Fill the center with 1-2 tablespoons shredded cheese, then top with a slice of bacon on the diagonal. Top the bacon with another tablespoon of cheese, then a slice of tomato. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Fold in 2 corners of the rectangles towards the center. The corners should not touch, but should cover a bit of the tomato. Brush the folded corners with egg wash then transfer the baking sheet to the refrigerator to chill for 15 minutes.
  • Bake the puffs until golden and cheese is melted, about 15-20 minutes. To serve, top with shredded lettuce, chopped tomato, chopped bacon and a drizzle of ranch dressing.
