Thaw.  Cut each roll in half and place on a baking sheet. Place a slice of Swiss cheese on the bottom half of each roll. Place baking sheet in oven with broiler on low. Broil for 1-2 minutes or until edges of the rolls are golden and cheese has melted (be sure to watch them closely so they don't burn!). Remove baking sheet from oven.
Place a spoonful of shredded beef on top of each roll with Swiss cheese on it. Spread Creamy Chipotle sauce on the top half of each roll. Assemble each slider by placing the top half of the roll on top of the bottom.

April 2013 Supper Swap





Chicken Packets - Sara D

Chicken Packets

Chicken packets:

2 cups cooked, chopped chicken
3 oz cream cheese, softened
1 tbsp green onion (the green part)
2 tbsp milk
salt to taste
1/2 cup seasoned crouton crumbs
2 pkgs crescent rolls
1/4 cup melted butter

Mix chicken, cream cheese, chives, milk, and salt in a medium bowl. Store in a quart freezer bag. Put crouton crumbs in another quart bag and attach it to the chicken mixture.

Serving day:

Thaw chicken mixture. Unroll crescent rolls. Each tube will contain 4 rectangles of dough with a diagonal perforation. Press dough along each perforation so that the rectangle halves will not separate. Place about 1/4 cup of chicken mixture into the center of each rectangle. Fold dough over the filling and pinch the edges to seal tightly. Dip each packet in melted butter and coat with crouton crumbs. Place packets on a baking sheet. Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for 20 minutes or until golden brown. Packets are good either hot or cold . Serve early in the month before crescent rolls expire. Makes 8 packets.
