Meat and Deli Stuffed Puff Pastry

1: Roll out puff pastry to 1/8” thickness and cut into squares approximately 4” x 4”.

2: Spray a muffin pan generously with oil spray and place one square of puff pastry into each hole.

3: Use a fork to poke holes in the bottom to prevent pastry from puffing up too much.

4: Bake at 375°F for 10 minutes (they will be par-baked at this point).

5: While puff pastry cups are baking, cook ground beef in a pan breaking apart with a potato masher.

6: Add all the spices to the ground beef and cook for 5-6 minutes until cooked through. Set aside.

7: In another pan, sauté chopped deli with oil until edges are slightly caramelized.

8: To assemble, place a heaping tablespoon of meat mixture into each puff pastry cup, then top with a heaping tablespoon of deli mixture.

9: Bake at 375°F for an additional 10 minutes.

10: For the mushroom sauce, sauté onion and mushrooms in oil until edges are caramelized and no liquid remains.

11: Season with onion soup mix and salt, and deglaze with water or broth.

12: Cook the sauce for a few minutes to thicken, and serve alongside puff pastry cups.
