I Didn’t Know Chickens Had Pillows!

These are also perfect little entrees whenever your children are having friends over. There are not any kids that I have come in contact with up to this point that haven’t enjoyed chicken pillows. You should see some of the looks I get though when I tell them what’s for dinner. My kids already know what they are so they laugh right along with me when the newbies look at us with a bit of fear in their eyes when you say we’re eating chicken pillows for super. “Chickens use pillows?” Check out what they are saying about this recipe over at The Girl Who Ate Everything:

“Oh my gosh. Oh my gosh this is so good. This is the best thing I’ve ever eaten. Oh my gosh this is tasty.”

This is what your children will be saying when they are sitting around the dinner table eating these.

 

Ingredients

8 ounces Philadelphia cream cheese, softened

½ cup Daisy sour cream

½ teaspoon salt

¼ teaspoon pepper

1 ½ Tablespoons dried chives

1 ½ Tablespoons fresh onion minced

3 chicken breasts, cooked and diced (around 3 cups)

2 (8 ounce) cans Pillsbury crescent rolls

¼ cup melted butter

Italian bread crumbs (around 2 cups)

Gravy:

1 (14.5 ounce) can cream of chicken soup

1 (0.87) package chicken gravy mix

water

 

 

Instructions

 

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Using a hand mixer or by hand, beat cream cheese and sour cream until well combined. You can do this by hand if your cream cheese is soft enough. Stir in salt, pepper, onion, chives, and diced chicken.

Using Pillsbury crescent rolls, take 2 triangular rolls and push together at perforated seam to make into a square. Make sure you seal the perforations well so your filling doesn’t come out.

Put about 3 tablespoons of chicken mixture in the center of each square. Fold the dough corners to the center over the chicken mixture forming a pillow.

Dip each pillow in melted butter on both sides. Roll in bread crumbs on both sides. Shake excess crumbs off. Place chicken pillow on cookie sheet and bake at 350 degrees for 20-25 minutes.

Make gravy by mixing one package of chicken gravy mix, one can of cream of chicken soup and ¾ can of water in a small pot. Mix together and heat until warm. Serve chicken pillows with gravy poured over top.
