Dinner in 30 minutes: puff pastry with chicken and mushrooms

You don't have to be Jamie Oliver to make dinner in half an hour. Anyone can cope with this task if they have the desire.

In the "Dinner in 30 minutes" section, FoodOboz offers you the simplest recipe possible: a puff pastry pie with chicken and mushrooms. Although it can be called a pie only conditionally. In fact, it is an ordinary casserole with a dough "cap". The chicken for the filling can be either raw, smoked, or baked.

• chicken fillet - 500 g
• mushrooms - 350 g
• frozen peas - 1 cup
• puff pastry - 2 sheets
• butter - 2 tbsp
• flour - 2 tbsp
• cream - 1 cup
• egg - 1 pc.
• oil - 2 tbsp
• salt and pepper - to taste

1. Wash the chicken, pat dry with paper towels, cut into small cubes. Season with salt and pepper in a heated and oiled frying pan. Fry over high heat until browned.
2. Remove the chicken from the pan, add the sliced mushrooms instead, and fry over high heat for 5-7 minutes, stirring constantly. Put the cooked mushrooms in a bowl with the chicken.
3. Melt the butter in a frying pan and gradually add the flour, stirring constantly to prevent the flour from lumping. When the butter and flour turn into a homogeneous mass, gradually start pouring in the cream, also stirring constantly.
4. Return the chicken and mushrooms to the pan, add the frozen peas, salt and pepper. Simmer everything together over low heat, stirring constantly, for several minutes until the sauce thickens.
5. Transfer the mixture to a baking dish. Cover the baking dish with puff pastry, folding the edges over to seal the filling. Prick the dough with a fork and brush with a beaten egg using a cooking brush.
6. Put in a 200-degree oven and bake until the dough is browned.
