This was a very tasty dish! We all enjoyed it including DS14. There are a couple of things I will do differently when I make this again. I used 2 chicken breasts making 4 pieces. I had trouble with the crescent roll dough, so next time I would probably whip out the rolling pin as opposed to trying to stretch it out with my hands. The recipe calls for a 9 X 13 pan which should have been an indication to me that the chicken needs some space. I put my 4 chicken breasts into a pan smaller than an 8 X 8 and covered with about 1/2 of the mixture. As a result, most of the crescent roll dough did not cooked to a nice brown and the bottom was soggy. So the next time I will use a bigger pan, make sure there is room around each chicken breast, and that the mixture doesn't cover up too much of the chicken packets. Made for PAC Spring 2010.
