Chicken Crescents

Creamy chicken filling wrapped in crescent dough and baked until golden. An easy, comforting main dish that pairs well with mashed potatoes and gravy.

Ingredients

1 can crescent rolls
3 ounce cream cheese softened
1 Tablespoon butter melted
1/8 teaspoon salt
dash pepper
1 Tablespoon milk
1/2 Tablespoon dried minced onion
2 cups cooked chicken finely chopped

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F.
In a medium bowl, mix all ingredients except the crescent rolls until well combined.
Unroll crescent dough and press seams together. Cut into 4 rectangles (do not separate into triangles).
Place one scoop of chicken mixture in the center of each rectangle.
Fold dough over filling and pinch edges to seal, forming a pocket.
Place crescents seam-side down on a baking sheet.
Bake for 20–30 minutes, or until golden brown.
Serve warm with mashed potatoes and chicken gravy, if desired.

Notes

Rotisserie chicken works especially well in this recipe.
Be sure to seal edges well to prevent filling from leaking.
These reheat nicely for leftovers.
