Easy Chicken Croissants


Easy Chicken Croissants

This is one of my favorite meals growing up.  These light and airy crescent rolls, filled with a fluffy cream cheese and chicken filling all covered in crispy crackers, will make your taste buds happy.  Top them with a warm gravy and serve with a side of vegetables.  Easy weeknight family meal or freeze them individually and pop in the oven to warm them up.  Super yummy!  Enjoy!

Ingredients

Croissants
  • 1 can Pillsbury Crescents rolls
  • 2 cooked chicken breasts
  • 1 pkg. cream cheese (8 oz)
  • 1 roll of Ritz crackers (wheat ot white)
  • 4 Tbs. melted butter
Optional
  • chopped bell peppers

Gravy
  • 1 10.5 oz. can cream of chicken soup
  • 1 cup milk

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
  2. Cube two cooked chicken breasts. (I used a rotisserie chicken from Costco. You could also bake your chicken in the oven for 30 minutes in tin foil, or cook on low in the crockpot for 3 hours.)
  3. Mix slightly softened cream cheese with cubed chicken in a large bowl. Optional to mix in chopped green onions, bell peppers, or mushrooms.
  4. Separate the crescent roll into the eight triangles (they should already be perforated for you)
  5. Divide the cream cheese mixture into eight servings, and with a spoon, place the mixture onto the base of each triangle.
  6. Roll up the crescent roll.
  7. In a Ziplock bag, crush the Ritz crackers into small pieces and transfer into a bowl.
  8. Dip the croissant in melted butter then roll in crushed crackers. Place on baking sheet.
  9. Bake for 20 minutes or until croissant is done and crackers are golden brown.
  10. While croissants are baking, in a medium saucepan, combine cream of chicken and milk.
  11. Cook on low, whisking occasionally until slightly thickened.
  12. Serve over hot croissants.
