Preheat the oven to 200 °C.

Heat the oil in a frying pan. Saute´ the mushrooms, then add the chicken and sprinkle with the soup powder.

Slice the puff pastry into four portions or use the whole roll. Spoon the chicken mixture down the centre.

Make diagonal slits in the pastry on both sides of the filling. Space the slits about 2cm apart, then plait the puff pastry to cover the filling. Bake in a preheated oven for 15 minutes or until crisp and golden.
