Tools
Sheet pan
Sauté pan
Pastry brush
Cheese grater
Garlic press
Knife & cutting board
Ingredients
Puff pastry, thawed
Olive oil
1/4 yellow onion, sliced
1 medium shallot, sliced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/8 red cabbage, sliced
1/2 zucchini, sliced
1 Tbsp butter, melted
1 package of goat cheese (I used truffle flavored)
3 pieces bacon, cooked and chopped
1 small bunch mint, chopped
Red chili pepper, to taste
Salt, to taste
Preparation
Thaw puff pastry according to package directions.
Cook bacon per your preferred method: I prefer it in the oven for 10 minutes at 450º. When bacon is done cooking, turn oven down to 375º.
Prepare onion, shallot, garlic, cabbage, and zucchini.
Heat up olive oil in pan on medium, add vegetables and seasonings. Sauté until softened. I like to start with onions, add garlic until fragrant, then add cabbage before the zucchini. When the zucchini starts to brown, turn off the heat.
Melt butter over low heat.
Slice puff pastry into portions and place on Silpat liner. Brush with melted butter.
Spread goat cheese on puff pastry. Add vegetable toppings. Slice cooked bacon and place on top. Put the sheet pan into oven.
Cook for ~25 minutes. Check it after 15 minutes and adjust according to preference. You can even pop it in the broiler for 5 minutes.
Chop mint while the puff pastry is cooking.
When puff pastry is done cooking, top with mint and a sprinkle of salt and pepper.
