Publix offers a variety of croissant options, including a croissant loaf and chicken Dijon croissants. The croissant loaf, which joined the bakery lineup in 2020, has all the classic qualities of a croissant—rich, buttery, and flaky, with a golden crust. Chicken Dijon croissants are also available for purchase, which are cooked and come with instructions for reheating in a conventional oven or an air fryer.

Chicken Primavera Croissant Bake

Ingredients

For the croissant bake, you will need the following ingredients:

• Chicken breasts
• Spring vegetables (such as asparagus, leeks, artichokes, peas, carrots)
• Croissants
• Creamy sauce (made with milk, cream cheese, and parmesan cheese)
• Seasonings (such as Cajun seasoning, salt, and pepper)

Method

• Start by seasoning the chicken breasts with your chosen seasonings. You can use Cajun seasoning, salt, and pepper, or go with other options like onion powder, garlic powder, paprika, and cayenne.
• In a large pot, heat some oil over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned chicken and cook until lightly browned. Set the chicken aside on a plate.
• In the same pot, add your choice of spring vegetables. You can use asparagus, leeks, artichokes, peas, or carrots. Sauté or blanch them until they are slightly tender.
• Prepare your croissant dough and roll it out into a sheet. Place the cooked chicken and vegetables on the dough, spreading them evenly.
• Create a creamy sauce by blending milk, cream cheese, and parmesan cheese. Pour this sauce over the chicken and vegetables on the croissant dough.
• Carefully roll the dough to enclose the filling, shaping it into a croissant.
• Bake the croissant in the oven until the dough is golden brown and cooked through.
• Once baked, let the croissant cool slightly before slicing it open to reveal the delicious filling.

Tips and Variations:

• You can also add other ingredients like spinach, cherry tomatoes, or garlic to your primavera filling.
• Play around with different types of cheese in your sauce for added flavour.
• If you're short on time, you can use store-bought croissant dough instead of making it from scratch.
• For a complete meal, serve your Chicken Primavera Croissant Bake with a side salad or some crusty bread.

Toasted ham and cheese croissant sandwich

A toasted ham and cheese croissant sandwich is a delicious and elegant meal that can be easily prepared at home. The key to this sandwich is using high-quality, fresh ingredients and baking the assembled sandwich to achieve a warm and flaky texture. Here is a step-by-step guide to making this mouth-watering treat:

Ingredients:

• Croissants (preferably fresh from a bakery)
• Sliced ham (deli ham or leftover cooked ham)
• Cheese (Swiss, cheddar, Havarti, or your favourite variety)
• Dijon mustard (optional)
• Butter (optional)
• Green onions (thinly sliced, optional)
• Honey (optional)
• Poppy seeds (optional)

Instructions:

• Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C).
• If desired, warm the ham slightly in the microwave to take the chill off.
• Slice the croissants in half lengthwise.
• Spread a thin layer of Dijon mustard on the bottom half of each croissant.
• Place one or two slices of ham on top of the mustard.
• Add a slice of cheese. Feel free to tear or cut the cheese to fit the croissant better, avoiding the centre hole.
• Top with another slice of cheese if desired.
• Place the top half of the croissant on top.
• If using butter, honey, green onions, and poppy seeds, mix them together in a small bowl, seasoning with salt and pepper to taste. Spread this mixture on top of the croissants.
• Place the assembled sandwiches on a baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the croissants are toasted and flaky.
• Enjoy your toasted ham and cheese croissant sandwiches warm and fresh from the oven!

Tips and Variations:

• For an extra touch of elegance, use a nice spreading knife to spread the mustard and a sharp serrated knife to slice the croissants.
• To make this sandwich truly shine, splurge on high-quality ham and cheese from your local deli counter.
• If you're feeling adventurous, try different combinations of ham, cheese, and spreads:
• For a Copycat Starbucks version, use hickory-smoked ham and Swiss cheese.
• For an Italian twist, try prosciutto, fontina cheese, and fig jam instead of mustard.
• For a kid-friendly version, use honey-baked ham, cheddar cheese, and honey mustard.
• Black forest ham, muenster cheese, and whole-grain mustard also make a delicious combination.
• These sandwiches are best served fresh and warm. However, if you have leftovers, wrap and store them in the refrigerator for up to one day. Reheat in a 350°F oven for 5 minutes or in the microwave for 20 seconds.
