Chicken Brie Asparagus Parcels Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Place asparagus in a steamer over 1 inch of boiling water, and cover. Cook until tender but still crisp, about 2 to 6 minutes. Drain and place in a shallow baking dish.
• Lay cheese slices over asparagus. In a small bowl combine melted butter, bread crumbs and sesame seeds. Sprinkle over cheese.
• Bake in preheated oven for 8 minutes.
• Increase oven to broil. Broil just until breadcrumbs are golden brown.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Pour the beer or wine into a glass baking dish large enough to lay out the chicken. Season the chicken with salt, pepper and oregano on both sides, and place in the dish.
• Bake for 35 to 40 minutes in the preheated oven, or until juices run clear. While chicken is baking, slice Brie with the rind into 1/4 inch thick slices. When chicken is done, place slices of Brie over the top. Return to the oven for 3 to 5 minutes, until cheese is melted. Voila, chicken with Brie sauce is complete!

Steps:

• Fry chicken in a pan until browned on both sides.
• Drain on paper towel.
• Take two sheets of filo for each piece of chicken, fold the two pieces which are together, in half& spray with oil.
• Place a chicken fillet on each pastry sheet& top with even amounts of asparagus then brie.
• Fold pastry into a parcel, brush edges with water to seal.
• Place the parcels on greased oven trays& bake in a moderate oven (180c) for 10- 15 minutes or until browned.

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6 and line two baking trays with baking parchment. Unravel a sheet of filo pastry onto a chopping board, covering the rest of the filo with a damp tea towel so it doesn't dry out. Brush the filo sheet liberally with some of the melted butter, then cut into three strips lengthways.
• Spoon ½ tsp cranberry sauce over the top right-hand corner of each pastry strip and place a piece of brie on top. Fold the pastry over the filling to create a triangle, then continue to fold the pastry over itself down the length of the strip. Brush with more butter to seal, then sprinkle over the poppy seeds and place on the lined baking tray. Repeat with the remaining ingredients. The parcels can be covered and chilled in the fridge for up to a day or frozen for up to three months.
• Bake for 15-20 mins (or 20-25 mins from frozen) until deep golden brown. Leave to stand for 5 mins before serving with some extra cranberry sauce.

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large non-stick frying pan and fry the chicken for 5 mins, turning to brown both sides.
• Add the asparagus (reserve the tips), leeks and celery, pour in the bouillon and simmer for 10 mins. Add the asparagus tips and peas, and cook for 5 mins more.
• Meanwhile, stir the egg yolk with the yogurt and garlic. Stir the yogurt mixture into the vegetables and add the tarragon. Divide between two warm plates, then place the chicken on top of the vegetables. Serve with new potatoes, if you like.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 200°C.
• Snap one of the asparagus spears to find the tender point and then cut them all so they are the same length.
• Boil in salted water for 3 minutes and then drain.
• Melt the butter in a small frypan and add the spring onions and cook over a gentle heat until slightly softened - about 3 minutes.
• Add to the frypan the mustard, half the cream, half the cheese and the lemon juice, mix well together and check the seasoning and adjust as necessary.
• Lay out the slices of ham and divide the mixture evenly between the 12 slices.
• Put three spears on each slice and roll up neatly.
• Place in a baking dish in a single layer and pour over the rest of the cream and scatter the remaining cheese.
• Bake in the oven for 10 minutes or until all is hot.
