Directions

  • 1 Heat oven to 375°F. Spray 14-inch pizza pan or large cookie sheet with nonstick cooking spray. Heat oil in medium skillet over medium heat until hot. Add chicken; cook 5 minutes or until no longer pink in center, stirring frequently.

  • 3 Unroll both cans of dough; separate into 16 triangles. Arrange triangles on sprayed cookie sheet with short sides of triangles toward center, overlapping into wreath shape and leaving 5-inch round opening in center. Lightly press short sides of dough to flatten slightly.

Just made this for our Sunday family dinner. All 5 of us really liked it a lot. I added a few more veggies than the recipe called for, probably more like 3-4 cups in all by using a frozen bag mix of carrots, corn, and red peppers that I had thawed. I didn't have any green pepper so I skipped that but the other veggies made up for it. Everyone commented several times that they loved it and I should make it again. Mine didn't turn out quite as "pretty" as the picture, but no one minded!

This is so good. However, I altered a bit since my family and I don't like the taco seasoning. I just cooked the chicken the way I usually cook it. I also added some of the salsa to the chicken mixed, and for the topping I added some avocado. Delicious!!
