Onion Add to taste
Garlic Add to taste

2 cups Favorite Cheese or a blend of Cheeses

Instructions

First step, using your first roll of Croissant dough, layout to cover the bottom of your casserole dish. No need to spray with non-stick spray. The dough has enough butter to insure no sticking.
Next cover the bottom of your casserole dish with cubed chicken thighs, or whichever part of the chicken you enjoy best.
Add Onion, carrots, garlic, sweet peas, broccoli, potatoes (Add to taste)
Add a nice layer of cheese
Next, add a generous layer of cream of mushroom /or cream of chicken soup
Next cover with more cheese
Add your last roll of croissant dough to the top then cover nicely with another layer of cheese
Sprinkle the top of the croissant dough with your favorite house seasoning, I like using creole seasoning.
Pinch of Salt and Pepper
Cover and refrigerate for 20 minutes before cooking, or wrap and store for dinner one day this week.
Bake at 375 until chicken is cooked through and the croissant dough is cooked. Likely 25-35 minutes. Keep an eye on it.
