"I found this recipe on Pillsbury's web site. This recipe was a bake-off winner by Lisa Huff. I did revamp a bit for our tastes. Nice quick and easy meal to use with leftover chicken."

 

• Ready In: 45mins
• Ingredients: 12
• Serves: 4

ingredients

• 2 cups shredded cooked chicken
• 2 ounces shredded cheese (I used four blend shredded cheese)
• 2 tablespoons parmesan cheese
• 3 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
• 2 tablespoons caesar salad dressing
• 1 tablespoon mayonnaise
• 1 teaspoon minced garlic
• 1 teaspoon lemon juice
• 1⁄8 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
• fresh ground pepper
• 8 ounces crescent rolls
• 4 tablespoons caesar salad dressing (optional)

directions

1. Heat oven to 375.
2. In medium bowl mix chicken, cheeses, bacon, 2 tablespoon dressing, mayo, garlic, lemon juice, red pepper flakes and pepper until well combined.
3. Unroll dough; separate into 4 rectangles. Place on cookie sheet. Press each rectangle into 6 x 4 rectangle, firmly pressing to seal.
4. Spoon one fourth of chicken mixture onto the center of each dough rectangle.
5. With a knife, cut each corner of each rectangle from edge to within 1/2 inch of filling. Bring the 8 points of each rectangle up over filling; firmly pinch to seal, forming a square.
6. Bake 16 to 21 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from cookie sheet and garnish each with 1 tablespoon of Caesar dressing.
