Upscale Chicken Divan Crescent Bake - cooking recipe

Ingredients

8 ounces refrigerated crescent dinner rolls (low-fat works fine)
Filling
1 1/2 cups cooked chicken, roughly chopped
1 cup broccoli floret, cooked and chopped
1/4 cup low fat mayonnaise
1/2 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
Sauce
1 (14 ounce) can cream of chicken soup
3/4 cup milk
1 tablespoon cooking sherry (or lemon juice)
1 teaspoon curry powder
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
salt and pepper, to taste
Topping
1/2 cup cheddar cheese, shredded

Preparation

Preheat oven to 375. Spray 9x9 pan with non-stick spray (use a 9x13 pan for a double batch, as shown in the photo).
Filling: combine chicken, broccoli, mayo and cheese lightly. Set aside.
Sauce: combine all sauce ingredients. Place ONE CUP sauce in bottom of casserole dish and set remaining sauce aside.
Assembly: Unwrap Crescent Rolls into 8 pieces. Place one-eighth of the filling onto the longer side of each triangle and roll up. Place rolls on top of 1 cup sauce in casserole dish, seam side down and allowing an inch between rolls so that the crescents will brown on 3 sides. ** Don't pour remaining sauce on top just yet.
Bake rolls at 375 degrees for 20 minutes. The tops will be slightly brown - remove from oven and pour remaining sauce on top. Sprinkle remaining 1/2 cup cheese on top.
Return to oven for 5 more minutes until cheese melts.
