Equipment

  • mixing bowl
  • baking sheet
  • parchment paper
  • mixing spoon
  • oven

Ingredients
  

  • 1 can crescent roll dough
  • 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
  • 1 cup shredded cheese
  • 1/2 cup cream cheese, softened
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • fresh herbs like parsley or chives for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • In a bowl, combine the shredded chicken, cream cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, pepper, and half of the shredded cheese. Mix until well incorporated.
  • Unroll the crescent roll dough on a clean surface, separating it into individual triangles.
  • Place a generous spoonful of the chicken mixture on the thickest part of each triangle.
  • Roll it up tightly from the thickest end to the tip of the triangle, ensuring the filling stays inside.
  • Place the rolls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, spacing them out evenly.
  • Sprinkle the remaining cheese on top of the rolls.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the crescents are golden brown and bubbly.
  • Remove from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving.

Notes

Use rotisserie chicken for faster preparation. Try mozzarella, cheddar, or a cheese blend for extra flavor. Garnish with fresh parsley or chives before serving for a fresh finish.
