SMOKED GOUDA AND LEEK TART

Steps:

• 1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. On a lightly floured surface, roll the puff pastry to a 13-inch-by-10-inch rectangle and transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet. Prick the pastry all over with a fork and scatter with the leeks and both cheeses. Sprinkle with a pinch of kosher salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper.
• 2. Bake until the pastry is a deep golden brown and the leeks are tender, 25 to 30 minutes. Cool for 10 minutes. Garnish with the chopped chives, cut into 16 or 24 pieces and serve.

SMOKED GOUDA AND LEEK CHICKEN

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Cook the leek and garlic in the melted butter until the leek softens and the garlic turns translucent, about 5 minutes. Remove the skillet from the heat and stir in the Gouda until melted. Divide the cheese mixture among the chicken breasts; roll the chicken around the filling. Wrap each chicken breast with a slice of prosciutto, and secure with toothpicks. Place seam side down on the prepared baking sheet.
• Cook the chicken breasts until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 25 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Remove the chicken from the oven and allow to rest 5 minutes before slicing and serving.
