Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs or breasts, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 1 teaspoon salt, divided

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
  • 2 cups peeled and chopped turnip
  • 1 cup chopped onion
  • 1 cup peeled and chopped carrot
  • 1 cup chopped celery
  • 1/3 cup unbleached all-purpose flour
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced

  • 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1/2 (17.3-ounce) package frozen puff pastry, thawed
  • 1 large egg, lightly beaten

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400 °. Sprinkle chicken with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper.
  2. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large, deep skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken and cook, stirring often, 8 minutes or until well browned. Transfer chicken to a plate.
  3. Add remaining 1 tablespoon oil to skillet. Add turnip and next 3 ingredients; cook, stirring often, 10 minutes or until softened. Add flour and garlic and cook, stirring constantly, 1 minute. Gradually whisk in broth and half-and-half and cook, whisking constantly, until mixture comes to a boil. Reduce heat to low, and simmer.
  4. Stir in chicken, remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt and remaining 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Stir in Swiss chard and thyme, and simmer 5 more minutes or until vegetables are tender. Remove from heat, and stir in lemon juice.
  5. Spoon vegetable mixture into a lightly greased 9-inch square baking dish. Place puff pastry over filling, tucking edges of pastry into dish, if necessary. Cut several slits in pastry to vent steam; brush top of pastry with egg.
