Ingredients
Scale
Crescent Roll Dough
- 1 package of crescent roll dough
Filling
- 2 cups cooked chicken (shredded or diced)
- 8 oz cream cheese (softened)
- 1 cup shredded cheese (your favorite type)
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C). This ensures that your rolls bake evenly and develop a lovely golden color.
- Prepare the Filling: In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked chicken, cream cheese, shredded cheese, and seasonings. Mix until fully incorporated, creating a creamy and flavorful filling.
- Roll Out the Dough: Unroll the crescent dough on a clean surface and separate it into triangles along the perforated lines. This will be the base for your stuffed rolls.
- Fill the Dough: Place a generous spoonful of the chicken filling at the wide end of each triangle. Be careful not to overfill, as this can make rolling difficult.
- Roll and Seal: Starting from the wide end, carefully roll the dough towards the point to enclose the filling. Pinch the edges to seal them and prevent any filling from escaping during baking.
- Bake: Arrange the stuffed rolls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in the preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes or until golden brown and fully cooked.
Notes
- Use Leftover Chicken: This is a great way to use up leftover rotisserie chicken.
- Chill the Filling: Refrigerate the filling for about 30 minutes to make it easier to handle.
- Brush with Butter: For an extra touch of flavor, brush the tops with melted butter before baking.
- Serve Warm: These rolls are best enjoyed fresh out of the oven for maximum flakiness.
- Experiment with Spices: Feel free to add your favorite spices to the filling for a personalized flavor.
