Spray large shallow baking dish w/cooking spray. Coat large pan with cooking spray. Melt butter over medium heat. Add onions, mushrooms - cook until tender. Add spices, frozen vegetables, broth, chicken. Cover. Bring to low boil. Cook 15 min. (veg are tender). In small container, mix cornstarch & 1/4 C evap. milk. Add to chicken mixture & stir constantly, about 2 minutes. Mixture starts to thicken. Add 1/4 more cup of evaporated milk. Stir & cook another 2-3 min. Pour into greased baking dish. Unroll dough & layer over top to form crust. Leave holes for steam. Bake until rolls are golden brown, about 12-15 minutes. Cut into 6 pieces & serve.
P.S 4-6 Rolls of crescent roll dough does not mean 4-6 cans, it means 4-6 pieces. I did buy 4 cans but only used one, then when I told Pat," I don't know why you would need 4-6 cans for this", he laughed and explained it to me!!! I may never become Martha Stewart at this rate!!
