I'm always up for a fun in-home show and Pampered Chef is certainly no exception! I love their recipes, but it seems they tend to make them quite "long-winded" with their company jargon. So I took the time to put my favorite recipe - Lemon Herb Chicken Ring - into layman's terms (a.k.a. minus the words Classic Batter Bowl and Pampered Pantry Italian Seasoning Mix - lol). This delicious appetizer is ALWAYS a hit at our parties - I can't tell you how many times I've shared this recipe with friends and family :) Enjoy!
Lemon Herb Chicken Ring
2 c. coarsely chopped cooked chicken
½ cup diced red bell pepper
3 T. chopped fresh parsley, divided
1 t. lemon zest
2 garlic cloves, pressed
1 c. (4 oz.) shredded mozzarella cheese
½ c. mayonnaise
1 t. Italian seasoning
½ c. (2 oz) grated fresh Parmesan cheese, divided
2 packages (8 oz. each) refrigerated crescent rolls
1) Preheat oven to 375°F.
2) Place chicken and bell pepper in medium bowl. Add 2 tablespoons of the parsley, lemon zest, pressed garlic, mayonnaise and Italian seasoning; mix until combined. Reserve 2 tablespoons of Parmesan cheese and add remaining to chicken mixture; mix well.
3) Unroll crescent dough; separate into 16 triangles. Arrange triangles, slightly overlapping, in a circle on a large round baking stone with wide ends 4 inches from the edge. (Points will extend off the edge.) Using a rolling pin, roll wide ends of dough toward center to create a 5-inch wide opening.
4) Spoon chicken mixture evenly over dough in a continuous circle. Bring points of triangles up over filling and tuck under dough at center to form a ring. (Filling will show.) Sprinkle 2 tablespoons of cheese over ring.
5) Bake 28-30 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from over and garnish with remaining parsley.
