List of Ingredients
2 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
22 to 25 medium uncooked shrimp, peeled and deveined
1/4 pound andouille sausage
3 tablespoons butter, divided
1/2 cup celery, chopped
1/4 cup green pepper, chopped
1/2 cup onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 teaspoons chicken bouillon granules
1/2 teaspoon Cajun blackening spice
1/2 teaspoon Old Bay seasoning
2 tablespoons cooking sherry
1/3 cup Monterey Jack cheese, shredded and firmly packed
1/3 cup Cheddar cheese, shredded and firmly packed
3 tablespoons Pepperidge Farm Herb Stuffing Mix
2 sheets puff pastry dough
Alfredo Sauce (recipe follows) Recipe
Preheat oven to 350.
Chop all meats in 1/2-inch cubes and refrigerate until needed. In a medium saute pan, melt 1
tablespoon of butter. Saute celery, green pepper, onion and garlic until onions are clear.
Add chicken bouillon granules, blackening spice and Old Bay seasoning. Stir to mix. Add
sherry.
Remove from heat and stir in Jack and Cheddar cheese and stuffing mix. (If mixture seems
exceptionally thick, add up to 1 tablespoon of water to loosen up). Set aside. In another
medium saute pan, heat remaining 2 tablespoons of butter. Saute chicken until it just starts to
brown, about 3 minutes. Add shrimp and continue to saute for an additional 2 minutes. Add
sausage and saute for 1 more minute. Place chilled pastry on floured surface and cut each
sheet in half. Repair any tears in the dough by wetting your fingers and pinching the dough
together. Place 1/4 of the stuffing in the center of each piece of pastry. Fold each side of the
pastry over and pinch to seal. Place the stuffed pastry, seam side down, on an ungreased
baking sheet. Crimp edges with fork to seal sides. Bake in 375-degree oven for 25 minutes
or until pastry is golden brown and flaky. Serve with alfredo sauce.
Makes 4 servings.
