Blue Ribbon Recipe

Not only is this chicken enchilada ring delicious, but it's truly creative. Pair it with a salad for a filling dinner. Or, slice and serve as finger food for your next party. Shredded rotisserie chicken will help you save prep time. Top with salsa and a dollop of sour cream. This will be a real winner with family and friends.

How To Make chicken enchilada ring

  • Chicken, olives, cheese, chiles, Miracle Whip, taco mix, tomato, lime juice, and crushed chips in a bowl.
    1
    Chop chicken. Add olives, cheese, chiles, Miracle Whip, and taco mix. Seed and chop 1 tomato and add 2 tablespoons lime juice; add to chicken mixture. Reserve 2 tablespoons of crushed chips and add the remaining chips to the mixture.
  • Crescent dough triangles arranged in a circle.
    2
    Unroll the crescent dough and separate the triangles. Arrange on a round baking stone or cookie sheet making a circle with wide ends overlapping in the center and pointing toward the outside. There should be a 5-inch diameter opening in the center.
  • Chicken mixture spread onto the crescent dough.
    3
    Spread the chicken mixture evenly onto the widest end of each triangle.
  • Triangles rolled over the chicken and crushed tortilla chips sprinkled on top.
    4
    Bring points of triangles up and over filling and tuck under wide ends of dough at the center of the ring. (Hang in there....almost finished!) Sprinkle with the 2 tablespoons of crushed chips.
