Chicken Crescent Rolls – A+ in Cooking Project

The recipe was on the top of page 105 in Mother’s cookbook – A+ in Cooking.  I do not understand why, but for sometime I have been intrigued by this recipe for Chicken Crescent Rolls submitted by David and Sharon Walker.  I decided to give it a try.

Since I am regularly sharing recipes from A+ in Cooking, I thought the Chicken Crescent Rolls could be my next effort.

Everyone liked them.  Hot Rod really really liked them.  They remind me of chicken and dumplings, and they were super easy to make.

Here are most of the ingredients:

Diced cooked chicken (I used a rotisserie chicken.)

Milk

Cream of Mushroom Soup (The recipe called for Cream of Chicken Soup, but I didn’t have that so I used what I had.)

Grated cheese

Crescent rolls (The ones in the tubes in the dairy case.).

You also need melted butter, but the butter did not make the picture – sorry.  Six simple ingredients.

Oh, I also halved the recipe because two people do not need sixteen chicken rolls.  But…Then Number One Son and his family stopped by, and it would have been nice to have had more Chicken Crescent Rolls.  Life is like that.  We really did okay.

Dice the chicken.  I did have pictures of the chicken being cut up, but it was too gross.  I didn’t think you needed to see that mutilated bird.   I used about 1 1/2 cups diced chicken for the half recipe.

Place the chicken on the crescent roll dough and make a roll.  Too easy!  (Please ignore the pink wrinkled hands.)

I used a 9 inch square pan for the half recipe.  A 9×13 pan would work for the full recipe.  As you can see, I did not worry about how they looked.

Heat together soup, milk, butter, and grated cheese until blended.

Cover the rolls with the cheesy sauce.  The recipe said to put a little sauce in the bottom of the pan before you make the rolls.  I didn’t do that, but I bet it is a good idea.  Ours turned out just fine though.

Evenly cover the chicken crescent rolls with the sauce.  Bake at 350F for about 45 minutes until the rolls are brown.

Sweet Mother of Pearl.  Isn’t that purdy, and it smelled divine.  Plus – they were delicious.  For dinner we had Chicken Crescent Rolls, green beans, watermelon, and broccoli slaw.  Life is good.

All agreed that these Chicken Crescent Rolls were blog worthy – And they were so easy to make.

Blessings to you and yours,
