Packaged crescent rolls provide a flaky outer crust for these comforting, flavorful handheld sandwiches. My sister in Arizona shared the recipe with me, notes Audrey Marler of Kokomo, Indiana.
Ingredients:
3 tablespoons spreadable chive and onion cream cheese
3 tablespoons butter, softened, divided
dash pepper
1/2 cup cubed cooked chicken
1/2 cup sliced fresh mushrooms
1 tube (4 ounces) refrigerated crescent rolls
3 tablespoons seasoned bread crumbs
2 tablespoons finely chopped pecans
Directions:
1. In a small bowl, combine the cream cheese, 1 tablespoon butter and pepper. Fold in chicken and mushrooms. Separate crescent dough into two rectangles; seal perforations. Spoon chicken mixture on each rectangle to within 1/2 in. of edges. Roll up, starting from a short side; pinch ends to seal.
2. In a shallow bowl, combine bread crumbs and pecans. Melt remaining butter; brush over entire surface of dough. Roll in crumb mixture. Place on an ungreased baking sheet. Bake at 350° for 30-35 minutes or until golden brown. Yield: 2 servings.
