Florida Chicken Wellington

This recipe was created to replicate a dish I tried while traveling to Key West, FL. It was the best chicken dish I have had in a while! It is quick and easy too.

Ingredients

• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
• 4 slices cooked bacon, crumbled
• 2 teaspoons Creole seasoning
• 2 sheets frozen puff pastry, thawed
• 4 ounces Brie cheese, cut into 4 slices
• 4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves, thinly sliced

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a baking sheet.

Step 2

Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Season chicken breasts with Creole seasoning, salt, and pepper; cook until evenly browned, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate to cool.

Step 3

Cut each puff pastry sheet in half. Place 1 sliced chicken breast on each half; top with 1/4 of the bacon and 1 Brie cheese slice. Fold top and bottom of pastry over chicken. Press pastry seams together with your fingers to seal; place seam-side down on prepared baking sheet.

Step 4

Cook in the preheated oven until pastry is golden brown and chicken is no longer pink in the center, 15 to 20 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
