Equipment

  • oven
  • baking sheet
  • parchment paper
  • large bowl
  • pastry brush

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup broccoli florets fresh, uncooked
  • 2 cups cooked chicken about 2 breasts
  • ½ cup red bell pepper finely chopped
  • 4 ounces sharp cheddar cheese shredded
  • ½ cup mayonnaise
  • 2 teaspoons dill weed dried
  • 1 clove garlic minced
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 2 packages crescent rolls refrigerated
  • 1 large egg white
  • 2 tablespoons slivered almonds

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 375°F. Line a 13 x 9-inch baking sheet with parchment paper, set aside.
  • In a large bowl add in the broccoli florets, chicken breast chunks, red bell pepper, and garlic. Mix together well.
  • Next, add in the cheese, mayo, salt, and dill. Combine gently.
  • Roll out a large piece of parchment to work on. Open one can of crescent rolls and unroll it onto the parchment so that the length runs from left to right.
  • Open the next can of rolls and lay it right next to the first one. Press all of the seams together to ensure none of the filling leaks out.
  • Pour the filling into the center of the dough, keeping it about an inch away from the top and bottom.
  • Starting on one side of the dough, cut it into 1-inch strips at a slight diagonal until you have about 10 strips. Repeat the same on the other side.
  • At one end, pick up one of the strips and set across the filling. Then grab the strip on the opposing side and set it across the first strip. Make sure to seal any open gaps.
  • Transfer to the parchment covered baking sheet.
  • Brush egg white on the dough with a pastry brush. Sprinkle on almonds.
  • Bake for 24-28 minutes.

Notes

If desired, add ½ a cup of sautéed onions to the filling. Keep the crescent dough refrigerated until use to avoid difficulty working with it. You can adjust the amount of dill weed or omit it based on preference.
