Chicken Pot Pie

This quick and easy recipe is good old fashioned comfort food with a twist. Using the crescent roll dough for the topping gets rid of that heavy pie crust. Just open the package and spread on top. I didn’t even bother with an egg wash. If I was having company and served the dish at the table I might have. It just isn’t necessary.  If you use cream you need less flour to thicken the sauce, Bake for 30 minutes at 350 degrees to get a nice golden crust.
