Method

    Preheat the oven to 220°C. Slice the {Leek}, mince the {Garlic}, and cut the {Turkey breast} into irregular bite-size pieces.

    ~12 min

  2. 2

    Heat the {Olive oil} and {Butter} in a large ovenproof skillet or shallow pan over medium-high heat. Add the {Turkey breast}, season with half the {Salt} and half the {Black pepper}, and cook until lightly golden but not fully cooked through. Scoop onto a plate.

    ~6 min

    In the same pan, add the {Leek} and cook until softened. Stir in the {Garlic}, then sprinkle over the {Flour} and cook for 1 minute, stirring well.

    ~5 min

  4. 4

    Gradually pour in the {Chicken Stock}, then stir in the {Cream}, {Dijon Mustard}, {Thyme}, remaining {Salt}, and remaining {Black pepper}. Return the {Turkey breast} and any juices to the pan. Simmer until the sauce is thick and creamy, coating the turkey and leeks.

    ~7 min

    Lay the {Puff Pastry} over the filling, tucking in the edges. Beat the {Eggs} and brush over the pastry. Cut a small steam slit in the center.
