- 3½ cups fat-free low-sodium chicken broth
- 1 cup frozen baby green peas
- 2 ounces low-fat cream cheese softened, cut in ½ inch pieces
- 1 tbsp fresh thyme chopped
- salt to taste
- ground black pepper to taste
- 8 ounce reduced fat crescent roll dough
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400° F.
- Place a large pot over medium/high heat. Add 1 teaspoon of butter and let melt.
- Add chicken and cook, stirring often, approximately 5 minutes or until chicken is just cooked through.

- Reduce heat to medium/low. Sprinkle vegetables with flour and cook, stirring, until coated, about 1 minute.
- Turn heat to high and stir in broth. Bring to a boil, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat to medium and simmer for 5 minutes.
- Add peas, cream cheese, thyme, salt, and black pepper and simmer, stirring every once in a while, until mixture is thick and vegetables are just tender, about 8 minutes.
- Stir in chicken and any pan juices and cook until heated through.
- Transfer to 12 x 8 inch baking dish.
- Unroll dough and press the perforations to seal seams.
- Lay the dough on top of the baking dish, allowing the edges of the dough to hang over the sides if there is excess.
