  • 1
    Heat oven to 350°F. Melt 2 tablespoons butter in large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken; cook and stir until browned and no longer pink in center. Reduce heat to medium; stir in flour, salt, pepper, half-and-half and sherry. Cook until mixture boils and thickens, stirring constantly.

    Stir in cooked vegetables and 2 tablespoons of the Parmesan cheese. Cook an additional 4 to 6 minutes or until thoroughly heated, stirring frequently. Spoon into ungreased 12x8-inch (2-quart) glass baking dish.
  • 3
    Remove dough from can in rolled section; do not unroll. Cut roll into 12 slices; cut each slice in half crosswise. Arrange slice halves, curved side up, around outside of chicken mixture. Brush with 1 tablespoon melted butter. Sprinkle with remaining tablespoon Parmesan cheese. Sprinkle entire casserole with paprika.

    Bake at 350°F. for 23 to 27 minutes or until rolls are deep golden brown.

  • "Newburg" generally refers to a dish made with chopped cooked shellfish served over toast points. This more family-friendly version pairs the typical Newburg sauce, made from butter, cream and sherry, with chicken and uses refrigerated crescent rolls instead. If you prefer to twist the concept a bit more, you can use a different mix of frozen vegetables than the kind called for in this rich recipe.
