Cheese Crescent Chicken Dinner

Cheese Crescent Chicken Dinner

Taken from:  The HomeMaking Helper

I received this recipe from a friend years ago. It's always been a favorite in our house. It is so delicious and so easy to make.

Ingredients
1 can crescent rolls
1 can cream of chicken soup
1 cup milk
2 cups cheddar cheese, shredded
2 cooked chicken breast, chopped

Directions
Preheat oven to 375. In medium saucepan add milk, ¼ cup cheese and soup. Heat until cheese is melted. In a small bowl mix chicken and 2 Tbsp cheese. Separate crescent rolls. Put a spoonful of chicken mixture on a crescent roll and then roll it up. Repeat until all crescent rolls are used and place in a greased baking dish. Pour ½ cheese mixture over rolls. Bake 20-25 minutes or until golden brown. Sprinkle remaining cheese on top and bake 5-10 minutes or until cheese is melted. Use other ½ of sauce to pour over rolls when serving.

Gaylene's tips:  I had large chicken breasts and had half the chicken left.  This looked fun leaving the crescent rolls in triangles.  Only bake cheese 3 min.  This recipe isn't as rich and complex tasting as the crescent dinner with cream cheese, but a good alternative with fewer ingredients.  It tasted salty to me, I believe from the soup.  Remember to shred the chicken with a Bosch, etc. --it's works so slick.
