Chicken, Brie and Bacon Turnovers

We have tried quite a few of Rachael Ray’s Take 5 Recipes (five ingredients or less ~ but olive oil, salt, and pepper are freebies.) We had these last night and they were awesome!  Enjoy!!!
Ingredients:
• Four 6-ounce skinless, boneless chicken breasts
• 2 tsp Cajun seasoning
• 1 sheet frozen puff pastry, thawed
• 4 oz Brie, cut lengthwise into 4 slices
• 4 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 350° and line a rimmed baking sheet with a rack. Season the chicken with salt, pepper and the cajun seasoning. In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil and brown the chicken on each side for about 2 minutes; transfer to a plate and reserve the skillet. Cut the puff pastry into 4 equal pieces and roll each one out into an 8-inch square. Place a chicken breast onto each of the squares toward one corner; top each with a brie slice and 1 tablespoon bacon. Fold the pastry in half to create a triangle and pinch closed along the edges. Brush with the chicken drippings from the skillet. Using a sharp knife, make 2 small, straight cuts on top to allow the steam to vent. Bake until the chicken is cooked through, 30 to 35 minutes.  Makes 4 servings.
