Chicken Puffs

By Pattywak

i've made this for years but my version is a little easier & healthier: put 1 block lite cream cheese in bowl, stir together w/shredded chicken, green onions, and a smidge of milk just so it's a little "stirrable" (no butter) - sprinkle garlic salt on top of puffs before baking. excellent on their own OR with chicken gravy! yum! talk about comfort food!!

Ingredients

• 2 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves - cubed
• 3 tablespoons chopped onion
• 3 cloves garlic, peeled and minced
• 3/4 (8 ounce) package cream cheese
• 6 tablespoons butter
• 3 (10 ounce) cans refrigerated crescent roll dough

Preparation

Step 1

Directions

In a medium saucepan over medium heat, slowly cook and stir skinless, boneless chicken breast halves, onion and garlic. Cook until onions are tender and chicken is lightly browned.

In a medium bowl, blend chicken mixture, cream cheese and butter until creamy.

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).

Unroll croissants and divide in half to create 12 rectangles. Place approximately one tablespoon of the chicken mixture on each rectangle. Fold into balls.

Arrange balls on a large baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven 12 minutes, or until golden brown.
