Method

Step 1 of 3

Line a baking sheet with greaseproof paper. Cut the pastry into 4 equal rectangles or squares and place on the baking sheet so the pastry is not lying completely flat, lightly brush with beaten egg and bake in a preheated oven, 200°C for 12-15 minutes until golden.

Step 2 of 3

Meanwhile, heat the oil and 15 g of the butter in a heavy-based frying pan and cook the chicken and bacon over a high heat for 8-10 minutes until golden. Add the leeks and cook for 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside.

Step 3 of 3

Heat the remaining butter in a saucepan and add the flour. Cook for a few seconds, remove from the heat and add the milk, a little at a time, stirring well after each addition. Add the mustard, return to the heat and bring to the boil, stirring, until boiled and thickened. Add the crème fraîche and cook for 1-2 minutes. Season, then pour into the pan with the chicken and stir. Ladle the chicken onto 4 serving plates, top each with a pastry rectangle and serve with broccoli.
