Chicken Club Ring

Yesterday afternoon, Hubby and his friends were outside working

on their ice fishing shack and I needed to throw something quick together for lunch.

(Every year, the “he man woman haters club” treks up to Lake Winnipesaukee,

New Hampshire, for their annual ice fishing tournament.

They sleep in the “Shrek Shack”, drink beer, complain about women, and eat!

I’m not so convinced that they even really fish?)

I was introduced to this recipe at a Pampered Chef party many years ago,

and it quickly became my go to recipe for lunches whenever company is over.

This recipe is so versatile.

You can add crumbled bacon, walnuts, grapes, whatever you'd like!

Swiss cheese can sometimes be overpowering,

so feel free to swap it out with the cheese of your choice - any will do!

Here's what you'll need...

Crescent Rolls, Swiss Cheese, Tomatoes, and Chicken Salad.

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

On a baking sheet (or baking stone),

arrange the crescent rolls in a circular shape,

overlapping each one.

This does not have to be in a circular shape. Go on, get crazy, get creative...Valentine’s Day is coming up...make a heart shape!!

Using an ice cream scoop, scoop the chicken salad onto the wide end of each triangle.

Add any optional ingredients (bacon, walnuts, grapes, etc.)…

Next, slice the tomato…

 

Layer the tomatoes on top of the chicken salad…

Split the cheese slices in half and layer on top of the tomatoes…

 

Fold the points of the crescent rolls over the filing, tucking under the bottom…

 

Bake for 20-25 minutes until deep golden brown…

 

Serve immediately.

If you want to get fancy schmancy,

place the chicken club ring on a platter

and serve chips or fresh veggies with dip in the middle.

 

Enjoy!!
