From allrecipes.com submitted by Kelly Grimes
| 2 cups diced, cooked chicken
meat
1 cup fresh broccoli, chopped
1/2 cup red bell pepper,
chopped
1 clove crushed garlic
1 cup shredded Cheddar
cheese
1/2 cup mayonnaise |
2 teaspoons dried dill weed
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons slivered
almonds
1/4 cup diced onion
2 (8 ounce) packages
refrigerated crescent rolls
1 egg white, beaten |
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
|
- In a large bowl, toss together chicken, broccoli, red bell pepper, garlic, Cheddar cheese, mayonnaise, dill weed, salt, almonds and onion.
|
- Unroll crescent roll dough, and arrange flat on a medium baking sheet. Pinch together perforations to form a single sheet of dough. Using a knife or scissors, cut 1 inch wide strips in towards the center, starting on the long sides. There should be a solid strip about 3 inches wide down the center, with the cut strips forming a fringe down each side. Spread the chicken mixture along the center strip. Fold the side strips over chicken mixture, alternating strips from each side. Pinch or twist to seal.

- Brush braided dough with the egg white. Bake in the preheated oven 25 to 28 minutes, or until golden brown.
