Heat the butter in a 10-inch skillet over medium heat. Season the chicken with salt and ground black pepper. Add the chicken to the skillet and cook until it's well browned on both sides. Remove the chicken from the skillet. Cover and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes.
Heat the oven to 400°F. Beat the egg and water in a small bowl with a fork.
Sprinkle the work surface with the flour. Unfold the pastry on the floured surface. Roll the pastry into a 14-inch square and cut it into 4 (7-inch) squares. Spread 1 teaspoon mustard on each square. Top each with 1 slice ham, 1 slice cheese and 1 chicken breast half. Brush the edges of the pastry with the egg mixture.
