Crescent Chicken Roll-Ups

Hey guys.

Are ready for some pure comfort food? 

This is my mom's recipe and she made sure that I tell you all that. I loved it when she made these growing up. These are so good guys.

Here's what you need.

Chopped Onion (I used the dried kind because I was in a hurry), Salt, Pepper, Cream Cheese, Crescent dough, Pimientos, and Butter. The only things not pictured here is the chicken and that's because I was cooking it, and some water or chicken broth. Also, I only did a half recipe of this, otherwise you need more cream cheese and crescent roll dough.

So this is my chicken when it was cooked and chopped up. 

In a bowl, mix together the chicken, chicken broth or water, cream cheese, salt, pepper, pimientos and onion. 

Next, get your crescent dough ready. I do these a little different than my mom. I do single or half size by only using one crescent dough triangle per roll-up. 

If you want to make larger roll-ups, put two triangles together like this. This way is good if these are the main dish. When I have made them recently, I have made them in addition to another main dish, or to take to a get-together or party.

Evenly divide out the filling to each triangle.

Here is how I roll them up. Pinch each corner of the wide end and pull up. Pinch dough together to seal. Then pull the narrow pointy end up other the already rolled-up part and just make sure it is all wrapped and pinched together. You don't want any of that yummy filling leaking out during baking!

Next melt some butter and just brush some over each roll-up.

Just follow the package directions for the cooking time. 

I didn't get a picture of the filling on these since I was taking these to a friends house and had to run out the door. But you can almost imagine the creamy, hot, savory filling instead. So imagine it with me today and hurry and make them so you can taste and see for yourself! You won't regret it!

Here is the recipe.

Crescent Chicken Roll-Ups

2 cups cooked chicken (cubed)
2 tablespoons chicken broth
3 tablespoons melted butter
3 Ounces cream cheese, softened
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 Tablespoon chopped pimentos
Onion finely chopped
2 Packages original crescent roll

Mix together everything except the crescent rolls and butter. 
Open crescent rolls and leave them in a square. (This is the Large Roll-up way, or leave them separate for the way I showed you for smaller roll-ups.)
Divide meat mixture between crescent rolls. 
Brush with melted butter.
Bake at 375 degrees according to package directions until golden brown.
