I have a new recipe for a chicken like casserole 

 *=- CHICKEN UNDER THE COVERS -=*

Ingredients **********************

           3-4 boneless chicken breasts
           3 packages of crescent rolls
           3 cans of cream of chicken

This is a simple and very good dish to make It was created by my
sister, and is probably the first dish she ever made that was new and
tasted real good.

First, cut the chicken in to strips about an inch to two inches wide
next lightly grease a casserole dish and place an entire package of
crescent rolls in the dish in one layer

 ------------------------------     This is what the pan should look
 |     /          /          /|     like after you lay in the crescent
 |    /          /          / |     rolls. 
 |   /          /          /  |
 |  /          /          /   |

 /-----------------------------

Next put the dish in the oven and bake it for about 2 minutes or the
crescent rolls are slightly cooked.

Wait for about five minutes for the dish to cool then add the chicken
on top of the rolls. Next apply one can of cream of chicken and spread
out out evenly over the chicken.

Now layer the dish with another package of crescent rolls. After you
covered up all the chicken, place it in the oven until the crescent
rolls on top begins to get a little light brown. Take out the pan and
add another layer of chicken and a can of soup with a cup of grated
cheese (velveta). Now add the last layer of crescent rolls and place in
the oven for 5 minutes if the top is brown poke it with a fork in
several places to allow the steam come out of the top instead of the
sides.  place in oven at 375 for 20 minutes or crust is a light dark
brown

After cooking, let it cool for five to ten minutes and serve.
