1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. In a large bowl, mix the chicken, pear, shallot, chicken broth, tarragon, 1 t salt and 1/2 t pepper and set aside.
2. Unfold and flatten the puff pastry sheet, cut into 4 squares and refrigerate 3 squares. On a lightly floured surface, roll out 1 pastry square into a 9″ square. Pile 1/4 of the chicken mixture in the center. Lightly brush the 4 corners with the egg was and pinch together to seal, leaving the seams open. Place the turnover on a baking sheet and refrigerate. Repeat with the remaining pastry squares, filling and egg wash.
3. Bake the turnovers until crisp and golden, about 25 minutes.
