The original recipe calls for the filling to be placed by spoonfuls into the crescent rolls, but I found it a pain in the butt to fold them, so I have made this recipe into a layered casserole! If you would like to try making bundles, just put a heaping tablespoon of the chicken and cheese into the center of each flattened triangle, and then fold the triangle as if you are folding a cloth diaper (fold in the two long points and then the short point over the filling), and pinch together the edges to seal. Ingredients:
1 (8 ounce) package crescent rolls |
2 cups chicken, cooked and cubed |
1 -2 cup of shredded cheese (i prefer sharp cheddar) |
1 cup chicken broth |
1 (10 3/4 ounce) can cream of chicken soup (low sodium/low fat is great!) |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350°.
2. Separate the crescent rolls into 8 triangles; flatten and stretch each one out.
3. Line an 8x8-inch pan with 4 of the triangles (keeping 2 triangles as a rectangle will help them to fit perfectly- you will end up with 2 rectangles in the bottom of the pan).
4. Sprinkle the chicken and most of the shredded cheese over the crescent rectangles .
5. Reserve some cheese for topping off the entire dish.
6. Create 2 more rectangles from the remaining 4 crescent triangles and place them on top of the chicken and cheese.
7. Mix together the chicken broth and the Cream of Chicken soup; pour over crescent rectangles.
8. Sprinkle any left-over cheese on top.
9. Bake at 350° for one hour, until the crescents are golden brown.
10. Cut into about 6 servings, or whatever number fits your family!
11. Enjoy!
