Do you find yourself looking for new recipes this time of year? Chicken bundles go together easily, bake quickly and are satisfying with their flaky exteriors and warm, tasty contents. I obtained the recipe from a friend of mine a few years ago who served them to us at her annual Christmas party. I prepare them every once in a while and recently made them. Here they are ready to slide into the oven.
Chicken Bundles
3 ounces cream cheese, softened
1 T butter, softened
2 cups cooked chicken, shredded or cut into small cubes
1/4 tsp. salt
1/8 tsp. pepper
1/2 tsp. dried dill weed
dash onion powder
2 T milk
8 count tube of crescent rolls
Mix the cream cheese and butter. Add cooked chicken, salt, pepper, dill weed, onion powder and milk. Blend well and set aside. Open the rolls and separate and pinch together the perforations to form four rectangles. In the center of each, add about 1/2 cup of the chicken mixture. Pull up the corners toward the center, pinching together the edges and twisting together the corners where they come together on the top. Bake in a 350 degree oven for 20 minutes.
* I shredded my chicken rather than cutting it into small cubes and lined my baking sheets with parchment.
