Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F and line a baking sheet with foil or parchment paper. If using foil spray the foil lightly with cooking spray.
- In a medium bowl add the cream cheese, pesto, green onions, and chicken. Stir until combined. Salt and pepper to taste.
- Unroll the crescent dough. Take two triangles and press them together to form a rectangle.
- Spoon about 1/3 cup of the chicken mixture in the center of the rectangle and bring the corners of the crescent dough together, pinching to seal.
- Place the Panko crumbs on a plate. Dip each chicken pillow in the melted butter (or brush it on using a pastry brush) and roll it in the Panko crumbs.
- Place the chicken pillows seam side down on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes or until chicken pillows have turned golden brown.
Notes
- WHAT ARE PANKO BREAD CRUMBS?
- Panko bread crumbs are Japanese-style bread crumbs made from white bread without the crusts. This makes a light and super crispy coating. These can be found by the regular bread crumbs.
