Wild Alaskan Smoked Salmon In Puff Pastry With Figs And Goat Cheese

I had an idea to use the Wild Alaskan Smoked Salmon I got at Big Lots and wrap it in puff pastry. Given the fact that the salmon is already cooked and I was thinking of baking it in puff pastry, I needed some professional advice on this one from my friend Executive Chef William Hernandez.

Chef Willy gave me some figs and he suggested that I layer the figs over the salmon and then top it with goat cheese. I had some leftover chives which I decided to chop and sprinkle on top of the goat cheese. The result was a savory dish with a sweet twist that was a hit with my relatives visiting for the holidays.
