Ingredients

2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

2 ½ pounds boneless, skinless chicken breast halves

1/3 cup unsalted butter (2/3 stick)

1/2 small yellow onion, finely chopped (1/4 cup)

2 cloves garlic, minced

1/3 cup all-purpose flour

4 cups heavy cream

2 chicken bouillon cubes

2 cups frozen green peas

2 cups cooked diced carrots

Pinch ground nutmeg

1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley

1 sheet frozen puff pastry (from a 17.5-ounce package)

1 large egg, lightly beaten

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350. In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Season the chicken with salt and pepper. Cook the chicken in the oil for 12 to 15 minutes or until cooked through, reducing the heat if necessary. Transfer the chicken to a paper towel-lined plate to drain. When it is cool enough to handle, chop it into bite size pieces.

2. In the same skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the onion; cook and stir for 3 minutes. Add the garlic; cook and stir for 30 seconds. Stir in the flour; cook and stir for 1 minute.
