A pleasant combination of chicken fillet, broccoli and cheese covered with a delicate cheese meringue creates a very harmonious filling of this cake based on puff pastry.
First, prepare the filling:
cut the chicken breast fillet into thin, small pieces, then simmer them in a frying pan until soft.
Add salt and spices to taste.
Bring the broccoli (I have frozen) to a boil. I cooked it in a microwave steamer.
Separate the egg whites from the yolks and put them in the refrigerator.
Grate the smoked and Dutch cheeses separately on a fine grater.
Add egg yolks, 4 tablespoons of fatty sour cream, grated smoked cheese to the chicken fillet.
Mix everything well.
Roll out the puff pastry on baking paper (glue the two parts overlap).
Put the dough in a baking dish to the rim, cut off the uneven edges.
Put the first layer of chicken and cheese filling.
Then put the pieces of broccoli on top. Smear it all with sour cream a little more. Place in a preheated oven to 200 degrees and bake until the edges of the pie are browned quite a bit. Don’t overdo it!
Preparation of cheese meringue:
beat cold proteins with a pinch of salt with a mixer into a thick foam.
Gently add finely grated Dutch cheese.
When the pie is slightly hardened, remove it from the oven and put the filling on top of the cheese meringue layer. Then put it back in the oven and bake until cooked.
That’s the kind of pie it should be! Enjoy your meal!
