Easy Chicken Crescents in a Pan - Jen

Please leave a comment for Easy Chicken Crescents in a Pan. Did it feed six? Did you like it? Did you love it?

(I got this recipe from Mijken)

2 cans of refrigerator crescents rolls
approx. 2 cups of cooked diced chicken or turkey
1 package of cream cheese
salt, pepper, onion powder, or other seasonings- to taste
1 can cream of chicken soup (diluted for gravy, optional)

Flatten the crescents from one can on the bottom of a 9 x 13 pan. Mix the softened cream cheese with the chicken in a separate bowl and season to your liking. Spread the chicken mixture over the dough in the pan and then lay the other can of crescents over the top like the top crust of a pie. Bake it in the oven according to the directions on the crescent can, usually 375° for 15 minutes. I noticed that the disposable foil pans reflect the heat and the bottom layer of dough doesn’t cook that fast, so I covered the pan with foil and then had to cook it almost an hour so the dough was a nice golden brown all the way around. Mijken cooks on a stone so hers browns really nicely. You may want to remove the “pie” from the foil while it is still frozen and thaw it in your own pan for quicker cooking? J

side dishes: green beans, green salad, fruit
