Chicken Pillows

Tonight for dinner we had yummy chicken pillows. This is the kind of meal I have to cook on the weekends because it's a little time consuming. More time than I have after work. I just did some corn & pasta-roni with it & everyone seemed to like it.

3-4 cups chicken, cooked and cubed
8 oz of cream cheese, softened
1 cup shredded cheese
1/4 teaspoom garlic powder
¼ teaspoon salt
Dash of pepper
2 cans of crescent rolls
In large bowl, mix together cream cheese, chicken, salt, pepper, garlic powder & cheese. Open crescent rolls and carefully unroll dough. Separate each tube into 4 rectangles. Seal seam in center of each rectangle. Place one heaping scoop of mixture on half of each rectangle. Fold over other half of roll dough and seal edges, creating a pillow. Place on baking sheet. Bake at 350 degrees for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown.

The recipe calls for dipping each pillow in melted butter & then bread crumbs & baking but I'm to impatient for that. I just mix up some cream of chicken soup, sour cream & a little lemon juice & pour that over as gravy after they have been cooked.

Willis made dinner tonight! And I must say he really put his foot into it. (A black way of saying it was really good). He didn't work today so I came home from my day & he had fried chicken, pasta & corn going. WOW! I had to call my Mom & tell her & her response was Willis cooked? All aside, Babe - it was awesome! Thanks for cooking.

Here's his recipe:

Mix 2 tablespoons lemon pepper into 1 1/2 cups flour. Dredge chicken in beaten egg & then in flour mixture & fry until done. Simple yet tasty!

Bomb Digity Chicken

Oh my heck dinner tonight was good. It was really called Sour Cream Chicken bake but I renamed it to be Bomb Digity Chicken! We had it with crash hot potatoes & corn. I know, not a real good picture but when a meal is this good, who cares about the picture. My Mom tasted it & she said it reminded her of her pheasant she cooks.

1 lb. chicken breats cut in 1/2 or 1/3rds
1 can cream of chicken soup
1/2 cup mayo
1 cup sour cream
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 tablespoon poultry seasoning 1 1/2 cups shredded cheese (reserve 1 cup for later)
salt & pepper to taste
Mix all ingredients together except for 1 cup cheese. Spray casserole dish with pam, put mixture in pan & bake for 25 minutes. Stir & bake for 20 more minutes. With 5 minutes left, put remaining cheese on top to melt. Eat!

Chicken Cordon Bleu Pasta

Here's what we had for dinner the other night. It's a spin off of Chicken Cordon Bleu's, made with pasta. It was reeeeaaallly good! Willis said it's his new favorite. It's way super easy. I made a new recipe for homemade rolls that honestly took 1 hour 20 minutes total to make and they were super good. (Maybe cause it calls for 1/3 cup sugar & I accidently put in 1 cup - owell). In case anyone wants the recipe (Ty) here it is:

2 cups cooked, diced chicken (I had a leftover rotisserie chicken that I cut up and used)
1 1/2 cups ham, diced (I went to the deli and had them do 2 thick slices & I diced that up)
2 cans cream of chicken soup
8 oz sour cream
2 cups shredded Monterrey Jack cheese
cooked pasta (I used a 16 oz box of penne)
milk (I need to add some to make the sauce the right consistency)
Combine all ingredients in a medium sauce pan until cheese is melted, smooth, and creamy. Mix sauce & pasta together and serve! You can just spoon it over the pasta if you like.

Firehouse Chicken

This is what we had for dinner tonight and can I say it was the bomb!! Willis said I put my foot into it. (That's a Black way of saying it was off the hook or in other words very good)!! It's way easy:

4 Chicken Breasts
3/4 cup BBQ
1/2 cup Hot Sauce
4 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons Worshire sauce

Marinade it for a couple hours and grill.. YUMMY!!
