SUPER EASY CHICKEN IN A BLANKET



Super Easy Chicken in a Blanket image

Although I've never met her, Cynthia in Atlanta sent this to me via an e-mail recipe exchange - something like a chain letter where you're forced to reveal one of your all-time favorite recipes or some horrible evil thing will happen to you. She said: "I make this on nights when I'm working and tired but want something a little more sophisticated than hot dogs." It was really good! My boyfriend had no idea it was just cream cheese inside. He thought I had spent lots of time making a special filling. Next time I may try one of the cream cheeses they sell with flavoring already in it, like herb or sun dried tomato.

Steps:

  • Cut chicken breasts in half. Spread a layer of cream cheese on the chicken breast, then sprinkle the seasoning on top. Cover with mushrooms.

Categories     main-dish

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 8-ounce tube crescent roll dough
1 large egg, beaten
1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
1 12-ounce package precooked chicken-apple sausages
Honey mustard, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375˚ F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Unroll the crescent roll dough on a work surface. Separate into 4 rectangles made up of 2 triangles each; press the triangles together at the perforations. Brush lightly with some of the beaten egg. Sprinkle the cheese over the dough rectangles and press lightly to adhere.
  • Place a sausage along a short end of one dough rectangle and roll up tightly, pressing the dough around the sausage to eliminate any gaps. Pinch the seam to seal. Repeat with the remaining sausages and dough rectangles. Using a serrated knife, cut each dough-wrapped sausage into 4 pieces.
  • Place the pieces seam-side down on the baking sheet and brush the dough with more beaten egg. Bake until the dough is puffed and browned and the sausages are heated through, 18 to 20 minutes. Serve with honey mustard for dipping.

Tips:

  • Choose the right chicken breasts: Look for boneless, skinless chicken breasts that are about the same size and thickness. This will help them cook evenly.
  • Pound the chicken breasts: Pounding the chicken breasts helps to tenderize them and make them more receptive to the flavors of the marinade.
  • Use a flavorful marinade: The marinade is what gives the chicken its flavor, so make sure to use one that you enjoy. There are many different recipes for chicken marinades available online or in cookbooks.
  • Let the chicken marinate for at least 30 minutes: The longer the chicken marinates, the more flavor it will absorb. If you're short on time, you can marinate the chicken for as little as 15 minutes, but the longer you marinate it, the better.
  • Cook the chicken over medium heat: Cooking the chicken over medium heat helps to prevent it from drying out. If you cook it over too high of heat, the outside of the chicken will cook too quickly and the inside will be undercooked.
  • Use a meat thermometer to check the chicken's internal temperature: The chicken is done cooking when it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
