Method
- Preheat Oven: Set oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Prepare the Filling: In a mixing bowl, combine shredded chicken, mozzarella, cheddar, Parmesan, heavy cream, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
- Roll Out Pastry: Lightly flour a surface and roll out the puff pastry slightly.
- Assemble the Jalousie : Place the filling in the center of the pastry. Fold the sides over the filling, creating an open-top pastry pocket.
- Brush with Egg Wash: Use a pastry brush to apply beaten egg over the exposed pastry for a golden, crispy finish.
- Bake: Transfer to a baking sheet and bake for 25 minutes, or until golden brown and crisp.
- Cool & Serve: Let cool for a few minutes before slicing. Garnish with fresh basil and serve warm.
