Ingredients
  

  • 8 chicken breasts
  • 3/4 cup wild rice or risotto cooked
  • 1/4 cup grated orange peel
  • 2 sheets of GF puff pastry thawed for 20min

Instructions
 

  • Stir in orange peel into cooked rice, set aside.
  • Roll out each puff pastry piece on a floured surface and cut into 8 equal squares.
  • Place a chicken breast (seasoned with salt and pepper) on each puff pastry square. Spoon about 1/4 cup rice on top. Fold pastry over chicken and tuck ends in. Place seam-side down on a greased baking tray, and brush with egg yolks.

If you have extra puff pastry, decorate the tops by using a small cookie cutter to cut out shapes and place on the top of each pastry wrap.
