Description

Indulge in the warmth and comfort of Cheesy Chicken Crescent Rolls, a delightful dish that brings joy to every meal. With its flaky, buttery dough enveloping a creamy chicken filling, these rolls are ideal for busy weeknight dinners or as a crowd-pleasing appetizer at gatherings.


Ingredients

  • 1 can (8 oz) crescent roll dough
  • 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
  • 4 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 tablespoon parsley, chopped
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Olive oil or cooking spray for greasing


Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a baking sheet.

2. In a bowl, mix together shredded chicken, cream cheese, cheddar cheese, garlic powder, parsley, salt, and pepper until smooth.

3. Unroll the crescent roll dough on a clean surface and separate into triangles.

4. Place a spoonful of filling at the wider end of each triangle and roll toward the pointed end, tucking in the sides.

5. Arrange rolled crescents on the baking sheet with points facing down.

6. Bake for 12-15 minutes until golden brown and puffy.

7. Allow to cool slightly before serving.


Notes

For extra flavor, sprinkle the tops with a little parmesan or paprika before baking.

These rolls reheat well in the oven or air fryer—perfect for leftovers.

You can swap cheddar for mozzarella, pepper jack, or any favorite melting cheese.

Add chopped spinach or green onions to the filling for a fresh twist.

Serve with ranch, marinara, or honey mustard for dipping.
