Pastry wrapped stuffed chicken

Ok folks this was another winner with the kids. And pretty easy to do.

Original inspiration recipe is here.

4oz Cream Cheese
1 tbsp Scallion
Parsley
Salt& Pepper
Garlic
Chicken Breasts (3-4)
1 can crescent roll or frozen puff pastry sheets
1 egg 

Mix cream cheese, scallion, some parsley and garlic. You can do any combination of flavors here. My next time I'm going to try some Ranch dip mix. The cream cheese flavor is strong- so go hard on those seasonings!
Slice a deep slit in the Chicken (Note my chicken breasts look horrible as I accidentally got bone in breasts :( ) and stuff with the cream cheese mix. 
Sprinkle with salt and pepper.

Place stuffing side down on your pastry sheets. IF needed roll them out a bit and squish them together to make bigger sheets.

Mix up the egg in a bowl and brush edges of the pastry to help it stick and roll upcovering the chicken.  Baste remaining egg lightly over top.

Cook for 400F for about 30 minutes- watch to make sure the bottom doesn't get burnt.

We served with mixed veggies.
