Prepare the Ingredients
Peel and mince half the shallot. (Remaining shallot is yours to do with as you please.)
Trim ends off green beans and halve.Remove puff pastry from refrigerator. Score pastry. Using the tip of a knife, draw diagonal lines on pastry, about 1/4" apart. Draw another set of diagonal lines crosswise from the first, forming a crosshatch. This is called scoring. Halve pastry diagonally and refrigerate again.Pat chicken dry, and season both sides with a pinch of pepper. -
