Chicken Pillows

So I didn't marinate my Chicken Tikka Masala long enough before reading the recipe over again so I am going to marinate it overnight.  For dinner instead I made Chicken Pillows.

"Wow! Oh my lands, these are so good!" was the first thing my husband told me when he took a bite of these fluffy pillows...that sure makes me feel good!  The kids devoured them as well, and well I so wanted more than the one I allowed myself...there is always lunch tomorrow!  This is definitely going into out must keep recipe file!

Mix together with mixer (or by hand if your cream cheese is soft enough):
8 ounces cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup sour cream

Stir in
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 1/2 tablespoons dried chives
1 1/2 tablespoons fresh onion minced (or I used 1 tablespoon dried onion flakes)
3 chicken breasts, cooked and diced (around 3 cups)
2 (8 ounce) cans Pillsbury crescent rolls
1/4 cup melted butter
Italian bread crumbs (around 2 cups)

Gravy
1 (14.5 ounce) can cream of chicken soup
1 package chicken gravy mix

1. Preheat oven to 350°F.

2. Using Pillsbury crescent rolls, take 2 triangular rolls overlap 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 (I overlapped them and gently rolled them out a little with a rolling pin.) 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.

3. 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°F for 20-25 minutes.

4. Make gravy by mixing one package of chicken gravy mix, one can of cream of chicken soup and 3/4 can of water in a small pot. Mix together and heat until warm. Serve chicken pillows with gravy poured over top, garlic bread, and some yummy roasted broccoli with bacon and enjoy immensely!
