  really pleased with how lovely and juicy the chicken was, and the pastry surprisingly un-soggy!

  Made this for a "ladies who lunch" meal. Very easy to make and everyone thought it was delicious. I added a little tarragon and lemon juice to the mushrooms which (I think!) worked well. Next time I will add more seasoning.

  I made a variation of these. Basically cooked the mushrooms etc as above, then sliced sideways into the uncooked chicken breast to create a 'pocket' (almost like you would cut a baguette) then stuffed it with the mushroom mixture, no oil required. Wrapped the chicken in ready rolled puff pastry so it was a completely covered parcel and then brushed it with the egg. Popped it in the oven for 25 mins and voila! As there is no opening in the pastry the heat stays in it and keeps the chicken moist (kind of resulting in steaming it I think??). Also made a nice sauce by adding 2 tablespoons of wholegrain mustard to a large glass of white wine in a hot pan - allow the wine to reduce until the alcohol smell disappears, then add about 250ml of double cream and simmer for about 10 mins. It went down a treat with the chicken parcels!

  This recipe is gorgeus. I changed mixed herbs for the parsly which made it taste lovely. Next time I would add some herbs inside the pastry with chicken which I found a bit bland after the pastry and mushrooms. For children who don't like mushrooms dice the mushrooms finely and they don't know the difference. The mushrooms may take a while to prepare so slice them before turning on the stove.

  great recipes, actually I make mini parcels, makes a small amount of chicken go a long way, the garlic mushrooms make all the difference

  I added 1 chopped onion, fried it, then added the mashrooms and it went well as well :) I will definitely use this recipe again! I'm thinking of adding dry tomato as well.
