These sound yummy! Thank you!
I am loving your recipes, but serving sizes listed would be helpful for me. I’m feeding a family of 6 here and am almost positive, no matter how much I shred the chicken, 1-2 breasts wouldn’t do the job
I used 4 good sized ones.
Looks so yummy, and I would like to try that chicken filling with scones!
Can’t wait to make this–your Dad wasw justtelling me he loves it.
This looks yummy. How many crescents do you use in each roll? I would love to try this recipe.
One Crescent for Each
I love making things ahead and freezing them. Do you freeze them before baking, or bake then freeZe and reheat?
I actually fully cook them then I cook them at 275 in the oven till they are warm. You can also put them on a cookie pan and stick them in the freezer for 30 minutes ( if uncooked). Then bake them when you want. I would let them de-frost though before baking. I hope that helps.
I am thinking of using rotessiere (?) chicken !! do you serve it with any gravy, sauce?
That chicken will work. I find these are rich enough without a sauce.
Made these! I loved them and boyfriend loved them!
can you use boneless skinless or dose it have to be bone in?
You can use boneless
Has anyone tried using canned chicken? I know the “real stuff” is probably better, but it seems like I am always trying to cook on a very tiny bit of open schedule so really good quick dinners is what I need. I am so tired of fast food and so is my waistline.
Seems to me you could get you one of the rotisserie chickens and that would work…not to mention it would be a little healthier than canned AND have more flavor! JMHO
Okay, please forgive me for asking but I’m kind of new to cooking! Once the water is boiled and I’m ready to put the chicken in do I turn the heat down? If so, how much do I turn it down? Or do I keep it up? Thank you!
You turn the heat to medium and cover it. The water should be hot but not boiling.
I’m going to make this without the cream cheese. I’m really not a fan. And I don’t like ricotta either. Do you think it will work without that cheese? If not, what should I substitute for the cream cheese?
Hmm the cheese helps it a lot … Is there another cheese you like ? Cheddar would be nice or a mozzarella
I love me some cheddar for sure! I will definitely add that component. Maybe some mozzarella. I’m thinking that maybe strained greek yogurt would make it creamy with less fat?
Also, one last question: How do these microwave? I’m all set to make them tomorrow night, but if I’m making so many, I want to be sure that they’ll microwave well when I take them to work. Thanks for your help!
Ok I am confused (it doesn’t take much) LOL But HOW do you make these with just one littel crescent triangle? LOL HEELP!
I calculated the recipe on a site with a recipe builder and I figured the recipe to have 16 servings since there are 8 crescent rolls in each package. It gave me the nutrient facts to lead to a 6 points plus value (via the Weight Watchers program) per roll. Is this a correct calculation?
I don’t see why canned chicken would be unhealthy… sodium??? I’m gonna try thee with my home canned chicken breast.
