Easy Recipes-Chicken Crescents

This recipe is another one that has been on my “Recipes I Want to Try” Pinterest Board for a loooong time. The main reason it was there is because it called for shredded chicken and…I didn’t know how to make shredded chicken! Finally, I did a Google search and found several posts and videos on how to accomplish this task. It was so simple I felt stupid! I don’t want you to feel stupid so I have added the steps for how to make shredded chicken to this recipe. You can use the shredded chicken for tons of recipes once you learn this simple technique so I hope you find this addition to the recipe useful.
