Ingredients

2 cups (500 mL) coarsely chopped cooked chicken
1 ½ cups ( 375 mL) coarsely chopped broccoli
1 cup (250 mL) or 4 oz (125 g) shredded cheddar cheese
½ cup (125 mL) diced red bell pepper
¼ cup (60 mL) mayonnaise
2 tsp (10 mL) All-Purpose Dill Seasoning Mix
2 small garlic cloves, pressed
¼ tsp (1 mL) salt
2 tsp (10 mL) oil
2 pkgs (8 oz/250g each) refrigerated crescent rolls
1 egg white, lightly beaten
tbsp (30 mL) slivered almonds

Directions

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Combine the chicken, broccoli, cheese, bell pepper, mayonnaise, seasoning mix, garlic and salt; mix well.
Brush the Fully Glazed Large Round Stone with oil. Unroll the crescent rolls; separate into 16 triangles. Arrange triangles, slightly overlapping, in a circle on the stone with wide ends 3" (7.5 cm) from edge of baking stone (points will extend off the edge of the baking stone.). Roll wide ends of dough toward center to create a 3" (7.5 cm) opening.
Scoop the filling evenly over dough in a continuous circle. Bring points of triangles up over filling and tuck under dough at center to form a ring. (Filling will show.) Lightly brush the dough with egg white; sprinkle with almonds. Bake 25–30 minutes or until deep golden brown.
