Ingredients

  • 8 tablespoons Crisco® Pure Canola Oil
  • 3/4 cup finely chopped onions
  • 2 cups shredded rotisserie chicken (from 2-lb chicken)
  • 1 tablespoon curry powder
  • 3/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1 can (6 oz) pineapple juice
  • 1/4 cup canned crushed pineapple
  • 1/4 cup raisins
  • 1 tablespoon shredded coconut
  • 2 tablespoons coarsely chopped bread-and-butter pickles (not pickle relish)
  • 2 cans (8 oz) refrigerated Pillsbury™ Original Crescent Rolls (8 Count)
  • 1/4 cup Jif® Creamy Peanut Butter
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 2 teaspoons white vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon finely chopped green onion with top

Instructions

  • Step 
    1
    In 10-inch skillet, heat 3 tablespoons of the oil over medium heat. Add 3/4 cup onions; cook 2 to 3 minutes, stirring frequently, or until onions are softened. Add chicken, curry powder, garlic powder, and 1/4 teaspoon of the cayenne pepper; cook 2 minutes, stirring constantly. Stir in pineapple juice, crushed pineapple, raisins, coconut and pickles. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low; simmer uncovered 7 to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, or until liquid is absorbed. Remove from heat.

    Heat oven to 350°F. Unroll both cans of crescent dough; separate dough into 8 rectangles. Firmly press perforations to seal. Press each piece of dough into 7x3 1/2-inch rectangle. Cut each rectangle crosswise into 2 squares. Place about 2 tablespoons of chicken mixture onto center of each square; fold dough in half diagonally to form a triangle. With fork, seal edges. Place 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheet.
