– 2 cups of cooked, shredded chicken – 1 can (8 oz) of refrigerated crescent roll dough
Two measuring cups: one for shredded cheddar and one-fourth cup for melted cream cheese.
milk, 2 tablespoons
*Garlic powder, 1/4 teaspoon
One-fourth teaspoon of onion powder
Season with salt and pepper to taste. If desired, you may also add 1 tablespoon of melted butter to brush on top.
– If desired, decorate with fresh parsley
How to Follow
1. Bring the oven temperature up to 375°F, or 190°C. Prepare a baking sheet by greasing it or lining it with parchment paper.
Second, combine the chicken, cheeses (cheddar, cream, and milk), milk, garlic powder, and onion powder in a bowl. Add salt and pepper to taste to the mixture.
Third, lay out a level surface and unroll the crescent dough. Cut it into triangles.
Fourth, fill the broad end of each triangle with a liberal serving of chicken mixture.
Make sure the filling stays tucked inside the dough as you gently roll it from the broad end to the tip. Arrange each roll on the baking sheet that has been preheated.
6. Melt some butter and brush it over the top of each roll, if you want. This will impart a stunning golden sheen and enhance the level of richness.
7. Preheat the oven to a preheated temperature and bake the crescent rolls for 12–15 minutes, or until they get a golden brown color and make a hollow sound when tapped.
8. For an extra splash of color and a touch of freshness, top the heated roll ups with some chopped fresh parsley.
