Another wonderful appetizer using crescent rolls!! This is requested often by friends at get togethers. If you want to go the super eas route, you can buy the fajita seasoned chicken strips, but I prefer making my own! Read more ! I think this was originally a pampered chef recipe, and I have modified it somewhat. Ingredients:
1 1/5 - 2 obs chicken breasts, tenderloins or thighs |
drizzle evoo |
2 t margarine |
2 t chili powder |
1 t cumin |
1 t garlic |
shake cayenne pepper |
dash hot sauce |
dash red pepper flakes |
1 can chopped green chiles, undrained |
1/4 cup pitted ripe olives, chopped |
1 cup shredded cheddar/monterrey jack cheese |
1/2 cup kraft or dukes real mayo |
2 plum tomatoes |
1 lime |
2/3 cup finely crushed corn tortilla chips, divided |
2 pkgs. crescent rolls |
1-cup salsa |
1-cup sour cream |

10. Unroll crescent dough.
11. Place dough, sticky side down, onto crushed chips; press down lightly so chips adhere to dough.
12. Separate dough into triangles.
13. Arrange triangles, chip side down, in a circle on round pizza stone or pizza pan with wide ends overlapping in the center & points toward outside. (There should be a 5-inch diameter opening in center.) Spoon chicken mixture evenly onto widest end of each triangle. Bring points of triangles up over filling & tuck under widest ends of dough at center of ring. (Filling will not be completely covered.)
14. Bake 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.
