Steps:
- To make the compote, drain the lentils and place in a medium saucepan. Add the chicken broth and simmer until lentils are tender but still firm, about 20 minutes.
- Heat the olive oil in a medium nonstick skillet over low heat. Add the shallots, ginger and chili and cook until softened, about 3 minutes. Add the corn and jicama and cook for 3 minutes. Add the lentils with the broth and the red pepper and cook 5 minutes. Stir in the cilantro, basil, salt and pepper. Set aside.
- To make the chicken, preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Heat the olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the ham and cook 2 minutes. Add the garlic, shallots, leek and red pepper and cook 3 minutes. Lower the heat and stir in the corn, porcini and wine. Stir in the rice, basil and cilantro and cook 1 minute. Remove from heat and stir in salt and pepper. Cool. Gently stir in the cheese.
- Season the chicken with salt and pepper. Place about 1/4 cup of the filling in the center of each piece of chicken. Fold the sides and the ends of the chicken over the filling, creating little parcels. Cut the phyllo sheets in half crosswise. Spray a baking sheet with vegetable oil.
- Lay 1 half-sheet of phyllo on a work surface and spray with oil. Top with another half-sheet and spray with more oil. Place 1 chicken parcel in the center and fold the dough's sides and ends over the chicken, making another small package. Place on the baking sheet and repeat with the remaining dough and chicken.
- Bake until the chicken is cooked through and the phyllo is browned, about 15 minutes. Warm the compote and spoon onto 6 plates. Top with a chicken parcel and serve.
