Chicken Squares

Chicken Squares

1 (3 oz.) pkg cream cheese
2 Tbsp. butter
2 cups chicken, cubed
1/4 tsp. salt
1/8 tsp. pepper
2 Tbsp. milk
1 Tbsp. onion, chopped
1 (8 oz.) can crescent rolls
3/4 cup seasoned croutons

Tip: Fry the chicken rather than boiling it tastes better.

Mix together everything except the crescent rolls and croutons. I mixed everything else first, then added the chicken.

Separate rolls into 4 rectangles. Press perforations to seal.

Spoon a half cup of meat mixture onto each rectangle. Or just divide it out evenly among them, that’s easier.

Pull the 4 corners of each rectangle together and twist slightly to seal.
Brush tops with melted butter. Dip or sprinkle with crushed croutons.

Bake 20-25 minutes at 350.

***As usual, I left out the onions. I pan fried my chicken seasoned with Seasoned Salt in olive oil before cubing it. A little more time consuming than just boiling it, but it was worth the extra flavor. I also used fat free cream cheese and reduced fat cresent rolls. This was a hit with my boys which means it's a winner at our house since they are so pickey.

***This can easily be made as a healthier dish. Use reduced fat crescent rolls, fat free cream cheese, margarine instead of real butter.

I got this recipe from Kitchen Scrapbook.
