Ingredients

  • 4 chicken tenderloins
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 sheet frozen puff pastry, thawed
  • 1/2 cup spreadable spinach and artichoke cream cheese
  • 4 slices Muenster cheese, halved
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tablespoon water

Directions

  1. Sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper; set aside. On a lightly floured surface, roll puff pastry into a 14-in. square. Cut into four squares.
  2. Spoon 2 tablespoons cream cheese into the center of each square; top with Muenster cheese and chicken.
