CREAMY CHICKEN VOL-AU-VENT
My friends and I have been getting together for "ladies lunches" for years. These vol-au-vents are the perfect no-fuss fancy food; they look complicated, but are actually simple and fun to make. Whenever I think of good friends and good company, I think of these savory pastries. -Shauna Havey, Roy, Utah

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400°. On a lightly floured surface, unfold 1 puff pastry sheet. Using a 3-1/4-in. round cutter, cut out six circles. Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet., Unfold the remaining pastry sheet. Cut 6 more circles out with the 3-1/4-in. round cutter; with a 2-1/2-in. cutter, cut centers out of the circles. Place the rings on top of the circles that are on the baking sheet. Place the center circles also on the baking sheet. In a small bowl, whisk egg and water; brush over pastries. Chill 15 minutes. Bake until dark golden brown, 20-25 minutes. Cool on a wire rack., Meanwhile, in a large skillet, cook bacon over medium heat until crisp. Remove to paper towels to drain. Discard all but 1 tablespoon drippings. Add leeks and pepper to drippings; cook and stir over medium-high heat until tender, 5-7 minutes. Reduce heat to low; stir in bacon, chicken, cream cheese, salt and pepper. Cook and stir until blended; remove from heat., When cool enough to handle, hollow out pastries with a small knife. Fill with chicken mixture. Sprinkle with parsley and pepper. Serve with small center pastries on the side.

VOL-AU-VENT WITH CHICKEN, MUSHROOMS AND PEPPER
One of the favorites of my children. It's a really versatile recipe and feel free to adapt it to your ingredients. If you don't get vol-au-vent cases use fillo and the instruction in the note at the end of the directions.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven at 160°C.
- Prepare all your ingredients ready.
- Heat in the oven the vol-au-vent about 12 minutes (if you are not ready with the filling after this time reduce the heat).
- Fry the onions in the margarine for 2 minutes.
- Reduce heat, add the chicken and cook until golden, about 8 minutes.
- Add 1dl wine, herbs, mushrooms, preserved pepper and cream.
- Combine corn starch with water and the remaining wine, then add to the chicken and stir until the sauce thickens. If it is too thick add some tablespoons of water or wine.
- Season it with salt, pepper, soy sauce and Worcestershire at your taste.
- Fill into the vol-au-vent cases and serve hot with some vegetables.
- Note: sometimes I add some vegetables (not only the mushrooms!) like carrots or peas directly to this dish.
- Note: alternative to vol-au-vent cases are fillo baskets. Instructions: Cut fillo sheets into quarters and layer diagonally in greased ramekins, spraying or brushig with olive oil in between layers - 4 squares for each ramekin dish if the sheets are very thin (like fillo for baklava) or 2 squares if they are thicker (like fillo for boureki). Spray or brush again before cooking at 250°F/180°C for in the oven for more or less 8-10 minutes.
- Note: For a vegetarian version skip the chicken and use more veggies. For example the double quantity of mushrooms. Chanterelle mushrooms are wonderful for this recipe (see photo).
