Preparation

Mix bread crumbs and ground chicken. Divide into 4 parts and shape into patties. Set aside half the Canadian Brie or Canadian Camembert for the sauce. Make 4 balls with the other half and place one in the centre of each chicken patty.

Fold chicken over cheese and carefully shape into a croquette, making sure cheese stays inside.

In a frying pan, over medium heat, cook patties 4 to 5 minutes on each side in a little butter and olive oil.

Meanwhile, prepare sauce: In a saucepan, over low heat, blend pesto, mustard, cream and remaining Brie or Camembert cheese into a smooth sauce (about 5 minutes). Season to taste with salt and pepper .

Pour sauce over croquettes and serve.
