Chicken Packets

Chicken Packets

2 cups cooked, chopped chicken
1 3-oz. pkg. cream cheese, softened
1 T. chopped chives
2 T milk
Salt to taste
1/2 cup crushed seasoned crouton crumbs
2 pkg. refrigerated crescent rolls
1/4 cup melted butter

Mix chicken, cream cheese, chives, milk and salt in a medium bowl (mixing with hands works best) to make filling. Unroll crescent rolls. Each tube will contain 4 rectangles of dough with a diagonal perforation. Press dough along each perforation so 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. Makes 8 packets.
