Baked Chicken Stuffed Crescent Rolls are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that combines tender chicken with the flakiness of crescent rolls. Here’s a simple recipe to make them:
Ingredients:
- 1 can (8 oz) crescent roll dough
- 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded or chopped
- 1/2 cup cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup ranch dressing or 1/4 cup sour cream (optional)
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese (optional)
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder (optional)
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1 tbsp melted butter (for brushing on top)
- Fresh herbs (like parsley or chives) for garnish (optional)
Instructions:
- Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Prepare the chicken filling: In a medium bowl, combine the cooked chicken, cream cheese, ranch dressing (or sour cream), shredded cheddar cheese (if using), garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Stir until the mixture is well combined and smooth.
- Prepare the crescent rolls: Unroll the crescent roll dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Separate the dough into individual triangles.
- Assemble the rolls: Place a spoonful of the chicken mixture onto the wide end of each crescent triangle. Carefully roll the dough around the filling, starting from the wide end and rolling up toward the point.
- Brush with butter: Once the crescent rolls are all assembled, brush the tops with melted butter to help them bake to a golden brown.
- Bake: Bake the rolls in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until they are golden and puffed.
- Serve: Garnish with fresh herbs if desired, and serve warm. Enjoy!
Tips:
- You can make the filling ahead of time and store it in the refrigerator until you’re ready to assemble the rolls.
- Feel free to customize the filling with other ingredients, such as sautéed onions, spinach, or mushrooms for extra flavor.
Enjoy your warm and cheesy chicken-stuffed crescent rolls!
