By ldelmas

Ingredients

• 1 tube (8 ounces) refrigerated crescent rolls
• 1 pound ground chicken
• 1 envelope taco seasoning
• 1 can (4 ounces) chopped green chilies
• 1/2 cup water
• 1/2 cup salsa
• 1/2 cup shredded Mexican cheese blend
• 1 cup shredded lettuce
• 1 small sweet red pepper, chopped
• 1 small green pepper, chopped
• 1 medium tomato, seeded and chopped
• 1 green onion, thinly sliced
• 2 tablespoons pickled jalapeno slices
• Sour cream and additional salsa

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350°. Unroll crescent dough and separate into triangles. Press onto bottom of a greased 9-in. pie plate to form a crust, sealing seams well. Bake 18-20 minutes or until golden brown.

Meanwhile, in a large skillet, cook chicken over medium heat 6-8 minutes or until no longer pink, breaking into crumbles; drain. Stir in taco seasoning, green chilies, water and salsa; bring to a boil.

Spoon into crust; sprinkle with cheese. Bake 8-10 minutes or until cheese is melted.

Top with lettuce, peppers, tomato, green onion and pickled jalapeno. Serve with sour cream and additional salsa.
