Here’s a quick and super tasty Cheesy Chicken Crescent Rolls recipe 🐔🧀🥐
Cheesy Chicken Crescent Rolls
Ingredients
- 1 can (8 oz / 225 g) refrigerated crescent roll dough
- 1 cup cooked chicken, shredded (rotisserie chicken works great)
- 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or a mix)
- 2 tablespoons cream cheese (optional, for extra creaminess)
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon paprika (optional)
- Salt & pepper to taste
- Optional: chopped green onions or parsley for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Prepare filling:
- In a bowl, mix shredded chicken, shredded cheese, cream cheese, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
- Stir until well combined.
- Assemble rolls:
- Unroll crescent dough and separate into triangles.
- Place 1–2 tablespoons of chicken mixture at the wide end of each triangle.
- Roll up toward the point, sealing edges lightly.
- Bake:
- Place rolls on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake 12–15 minutes, or until golden brown and cheese is melted.
- Serve:
- Sprinkle with green onions or parsley if desired.
- Serve warm as a snack, appetizer, or easy dinner.
Tips & Variations
- Extra gooey: Add a few extra cheese slices on top before baking.
- Spicy: Mix in a little hot sauce or chopped jalapeños.
- Make-ahead: Assemble and freeze unbaked rolls; bake directly from frozen, adding a few extra minutes.
- Kid-friendly twist: Use ham instead of chicken or add a little cream cheese with ranch seasoning.
If you want, I can also give a one-pan “family dinner” version where you bake all rolls together in a casserole style for even faster prep.
Do you want me to do that?
