Preparation
- Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. In a skillet, heat olive oil and sear the chicken until golden brown, about 5–6 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate and let cool.
- In the same skillet, add butter and sauté the mushrooms, shallots, and garlic until moisture evaporates, about 10–12 minutes. Allow to cool.
- On plastic wrap, lay prosciutto slices and spread cooled duxelles over it. Place chicken in the center and roll into a log. Chill for 15–20 minutes.
- Roll out puff pastry to ¼-inch thickness. Unwrap chicken log and place it in the center of the pastry. Wrap and seal edges. Chill for another 10 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 400°F. Whisk egg yolk with water and brush on the pastry. Cut slits in the pastry for steam to escape.
- Bake for 25–30 minutes or until golden brown and flaky. Rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

Notes
Ensure both the chicken and duxelles are cool before wrapping to prevent a soggy pastry. Use cold puff pastry for the best results.
