The reviewer gave this recipe 5 stars. This recipe averages a 4.51 star rating.

This recipe is so yummy and super easy to make! I usually use 4 oz. cream cheese instead of 3 oz. just because my boyfriend and I love cream cheese. I also do not use the pimento or brush the crescent tops with butter and sprinkle with croutons but they still turn out delicious. One suggestion I do have is to season the chicken a bit while cooking. I usually poach the chicken in chicken broth and season with salt, pepper and a little of Emeril's original essence spice just to give it a bit more flavor. Also, do not let the crescent rolls sit out too long as you prepare the chicken. I found that it makes the dough too soft and when you go to wrap the chicken mixture it tears much easier. Keep the dough chilled until you are ready to use.

I have been making these for years it's one of my son's fave's This is close to how I make them but I use green onions and I do not use the pimento. I also use italian bread crumbs. Where I found my receipe it had a sauce made from 8oz. of sour cream and 1 can of cream of mushroom soup heated together. I serve with mashed potato's. I do try and use fat free where I can and I always make lots and freeze before baking. You can also use left over turkey!

This does taste good, but it was a bit too rich for me.

For a lighter recipe, I used ff cream cheese, skim milk, ff croutons, and brummel and brown instead of butter. Diced chiles took the place of the pimentos, and it turned out delicious!

This was WAY too rich for me. Maybe if you were to cut the amount of cream cheese in half and add sour cream instead it would be better but I didn't care for this. Gave it a three because the two others eating said it was pretty good.

I'm not sure about the original recipe but with my revisions this was wonderful. After reading so many say that it could be bland I made a couple of adjustments. no croutons, pimentos, or milk. After shredding the chicken I put it in a skillet on low with 1/2 a can cream of chicken soup, the onions, and 1 tsp diced jalapenos. When that warmed up I added the butter and cream cheese to the mix. I then wrapped them up in the rectangles as the recipe says. I thought it was plenty. I only cooked them for 20 minutes. Everyone went back for seconds and I will deffinitely make this again.

I made it without the onion or peppers because of my picky 2 and 6 year old sons. They LOVED this meal and so did I! They ate every last bite. I love this recipe and will be adding it to my list of "good recipes".

This was good, but not something I would make often. I found it easier to just fold the ends of the rectangles over and then squeeze the sides shut. ***UPDATE: I tried these again, but this time I added mild cheddar cheese, white corn and bacon. I also seasoned my chicken with plenty of garlic, Lawry's and pepper. This time, we were Wowed! My husband insisted it was the best stuff he had ever put in his mouth!

This is a good base recipe. The first time I made it, I followed the recipe as submitted. The 2nd time I made them, I wanted to spice them up a little, so I added sliced mushrooms, diced jalapeno peppers, garlic and red pepper flakes. I omitted the pimentos and croutons. Worth trying, and adding your own touch to it.

Delicious. The only thing I changed was that I used reduced fat cream cheese. Still turned out wonderful and you couldn't tell the difference. I also didn't put the croutons on top. Wonderful and great reviews from my kids too. Thanks for the recipe.

Easy. Salt, peppered, and added paprika to the shredded cooked chicken before mixing with the rest of the called-for ingredients. Skipped the croutons and pimientos. Perfect for dinner parties - everyone gets their own! I thought there may be too much bread, though, and might roll out the dough a bit next time and make more "dumplings."

Good, quick meal. Husband and I enjoyed this, boys did not, no surprise there, it was not pizza or PB&J. You can modify spices to suit your taste. Certainly worth a try. Thank for the recipe.

The fiance scarfed these down, so between that and the fact that they were EASY, this definitely earns 5 stars. However, I will note that it's much easier to shape the bundles if the crescent dough is chilled. I very stupidly left mine on the cookie sheet too close to the preheated oven, so my chicken packets were functional, but uuuuugly. :-) Thanks for a winner!
