Lemon Herb Chicken Ring is a recipe that I got from a friend of mine. Her name is Sib (short for Sylvia); she never cared for her name, but I think that it is a beautiful name. So today when I knew that I was going to have a busy day I went to the grocery store.

It was early and I asked the gentleman that worked there where the Rotisserie chickens were? He told me that they were back in the Deli area. So I quickly headed back there to get one, however when I got there, the man that was cooking them told me that they would be done in 25 minutes.

I didn’t care to wait and so I came home and used 2 (12.5 ounce) cans of chicken. The Lemon Herb Chicken Ring turned out awesome.

 

 

What Ingredients Do I Need For Lemon Herb Chicken Ring?

 

• Chicken
• Red bell pepper
• Lemon zest
• Fresh parsley
• Garlic clove
• Mozzarella cheese
• Mayonnaise
• Italian seasoning
• Parmesan cheese
• Refrigerated crescent rolls

 

 

How Do I Make Lemon Herb Chicken Ring?

 

• In a large bowl add the chicken, diced bell pepper, lemon zest, and chopped parsley.
• Then add the minced garlic, mozzarella cheese, mayonnaise, Italian seasoning, and 1/4 cup or the grated Parmesan cheese.
• Mix it well.
• I like to place a bowl that is about 5-7′ wide in the center of either a baking sheet or a pizza stone.
• Separate the crescent dough into triangles.
• Arrange the triangles with the widest part toward the bowl, making a circle, and you will need to overlap the triangles, about half way for each one.
• Spoon the chicken mixture evenly on top of the wide part of the triangles, I like to use a large cookie scoop.
• Bring the point of the triangles up over the filling and pinch the narrow part and the wide part together.
• It will not completely cover the filling.
• Sprinkle the remaining 1/4 c. Parmesan cheese over the ring.
• Bake @ 375 degrees for 22-26 minutes depending on your oven, the crescents will be golden brown; make sure the center is not doughy.
• Garnish with lemons, and remaining parsley.
• Slice into pieces and enjoy.
