Garlic Chicken Puffs

Garlic Chicken Puffs

Ingredients

  • 4 ounces cream cheese
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 cup cooked chicken, shredded
  • 2 cans refrigerated crescent rolls

Directions

  1. 1. Mix cream cheese, garlic and chicken until well-blended.
  2. 2. Unroll crescent rolls and cut each triangle into two triangles.
  3. (when you unroll the crescent rolls, 2 triangles are attached making a big square. Just cut from there following the perforation for one cut and made another cut from the other corners � giving you 4 little triangles).
  4. 3. Place 1 teaspoon of chicken mixture on the center of each triangle and fold the corners in over the mixture.
  5. 4. Place on cookie sheet, lined with parchment paper and sprayed with no stick spray.
  6. Bake at 375 degrees for 12 to 14 minutes.

Notes

  1. 1. For more evenly-sized triangles, after unrolling the crescent rolls, notice that two triangles make up a rectangle. You will have four rectangles. Cut each rectangle apart from the other rectangles. Gently pat the diagonal perforations together before cutting each rectangle in half width-wise to create 2 squares. Each square was then cut diagonally � from corner to corner. You should end up with 16 triangles.
  2. 2. Using kitchen shears, snip about ten chive stems and stir them into the chicken mixture.You could also add 1/4 teaspoon of Worcestershire sauce.
  3. 3. To prevent any of the filling from leaking out,seal each puff by pressing the edges of the dough together.
  4. 4. You�ll want to check them at least 10 minutes into the baking process as times will vary with different ovens.
  5. 5.Put the puffs to a wire rack to cool � so the bottoms won't have a chance to get soggy.
  6. 6. This recipe could be made even easier by using a rotisserie chicken or canned chicken instead of cooking chicken yourself.
