Directions

Blend cream cheese and 2 tablespoons melted butter. Add chicken, salt, pepper, milk, chives, and pimiento. Mix well. Separate crescent dough into 8 triangles, as marked. Spoon 1/4 cup of meat mixture near base of triangle and roll up, crescent style. Brush each roll with melted butter; then dip in crouton or dressing crumbs. Place on an ungreased baking sheet and bake 20 to 25 minutes, or until golden brown. Serve hot with any favorite cream sauce. Good with hot cream of chicken or mushroom soup, diluted with about 1/2 can of milk. Or use a good mushroom sauce. Variation: To make 4 servings, like sealed sandwiches, separate crescent dough into 4 rectangles. Press perforations together firmly, to seal. Spoon about 1/2 cup of meat mixture on one side of center. Fold other side over mixture and seal edge of dough, top, bottom and side. Finish and cook as for crescent roll above. This recipe, in either form, may be increased to any desired number for a crowd. The oblong sandwiches go great as finger food at back yard parties, and look great piled on a handsome platter.

Hi, yes 350 degree F is the perfect temperature but since the chicken is cooked, you can also increase it to 375 degree F and bake for 18-20 minutes, or until pastry puffs and is golden and crispy on top.
