This easy barbecue chicken is great on its own but it’s outta this world with yummy, fried cream cheese crescent wontons.

Ingredients

2 cups barbecue sauce
1/4 cup cornstarch
2 1/2 lb boneless skinless chicken thighs
1 bunch sliced green onions, green and white parts divided
1 quart vegetable oil, for frying
1 can (8 oz) Pillsbury™ refrigerated crescent dinner rolls
16 teaspoons chive and onion cream cheese (3 oz from 8-oz container)

Instructions

Spray 5-quart slow cooker with cooking spray. In small bowl, mix barbecue sauce, cornstarch and 2/3 cup water. Add sauce mixture and chicken to slow cooker; toss to coat. Sprinkle chicken mixture with green onion whites. (Cover and refrigerate green onion tops for later.) Cover and cook on Low heat setting 8 hours. Sprinkle with green onion tops.
In 4-quart heavy saucepan, heat oil to 325 °F. Separate crescent dough into 4 rectangles. Press seams of each rectangle together, then cut in half crosswise. Cut each square in half diagonally.
Place 1 teaspoon cream cheese in center of 1 triangle. Fold dough over cheese; press to seal.
Tuck top point of triangle down to long side, and pinch other 2 points together.
Fry dough in 2 batches, about 3 minutes per batch, turning often, until crescents are nicely browned. Drain on paper towels.
