Ingredients

  1. chicken breast - 500 g (diced and frozen)
  2. egg whites - 2 (two egg whites)
  3. cream - watch the video to see (amount not specified, add after blending chicken and egg whites)

Instructions

  1. Blend chicken and egg whites: Place diced frozen chicken breast and two egg whites into a strong blender. Blend until the mixture is very smooth, pale, light, and fluffy, resembling wallpaper paste. Continue blending as long as possible before the mixture warms to about 4 or 5°C.
  2. Add cream: After blending the chicken and egg whites, add cream to the mixture and blend for another 2 minutes until the mousse is super stiff.
  3. Use mousse in Wellington: Use the chicken mousse as a layer in the Wellington to help push the crepes outward during cooking, resulting in a tight and perfect slice.
