A wonderful potluck dish that I found originally in a TV guide insert for a Kraft TV event, many many years ago. Wonderful. I often add sage, as I like that flavor, but it's good without t, and will get great reviews from all who try it. I use breasts for this, but I'm sure any chicken would work well. Ingredients:
1/2 cup onion, chopped |
1/4 cup butter |
1/4 cup flour |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1 dash pepper |
1 1/2 cups milk |
4 cups cooked chicken, chopped |
8 ounces cheddar cheese, grated |
10 ounces frozen broccoli, cooked and drained |
8 ounces pillsbury refrigerated crescent dinner rolls |
Directions:
1. Saute onion in 1/4 cup butter.
2. Blend in flour and seasonings.
3. Gradually add milk, stirring constantly until thickened.
4. Add chicken, cheese, and broccoli; mix well; and spoon into 13x9 baking dish.
5. Separate rolls into 1 large (long) and 2 small rectangles; firmly press perforations to seal.
6. Cut large rectangle into 4 strips lengthwise. Place on top of casserole.
7. Cut small rectangles into 8 strips crosswise (4 each).
8. Create a lattice pattern by weaving the short pieces over and under the long pieces.
9. Brush with melted butter.
10. Bake at 350 degrees for 35 minutes.
