Ingredients

Scale

Crescent Roll Dough

  • 1 package crescent roll dough (approx. 8 oz)

Filling

  • 1 cup cooked shredded chicken (warm)
  • ½ cup cream cheese, softened
  • ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese (or your favorite cheese)
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon dried Italian herbs
  • Salt, to taste
  • Freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Filling: In a bowl, combine 1 cup warm shredded cooked chicken, ½ cup softened cream cheese, ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese, ½ teaspoon garlic powder, ½ teaspoon dried Italian herbs, salt, and pepper. Mix well until fully incorporated into a creamy, flavorful filling.
  2. Roll Out the Dough: Unroll the crescent roll dough onto a flat surface and carefully separate each triangle piece, ensuring an even surface that won’t tear.
  3. Stuff the Rolls: Place a generous spoonful of the chicken filling near the wide end of each crescent triangle, being careful not to overfill to avoid leaking during baking.
  4. Roll and Seal: Starting at the wide end, roll the dough toward the pointed tip to enclose the filling. Pinch edges slightly to seal and prevent cheese from oozing out.
  5. Bake Until Golden: Arrange the stuffed rolls on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 12 to 15 minutes or until the dough is golden brown and puffy.

Notes

  • Use warm chicken for a smoother filling texture.
  • Do not overfill the dough to prevent leakage.
  • Chill the stuffed rolls in the refrigerator for 10 minutes before baking to prevent spreading.
  • Brush the rolls with beaten egg before baking for extra shine and color.
  • Use parchment paper on the baking sheet to avoid sticking and ease cleanup.
