Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups (shredded) Cooked chicken breast
- 4 ounces (softened) Cream cheese
- 2 tablespoons (chopped) Chives
- 0.5 teaspoons Garlic powder
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Ground black pepper
- 2 cans (8 ounces each) Crescent roll dough
- 1 large (beaten) Egg
- 1 teaspoons Poppy seeds (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded cooked chicken, softened cream cheese, chopped chives, garlic powder, salt, and ground black pepper. Mix until the ingredients are evenly incorporated, and the mixture is creamy.
Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate it into triangles as indicated by the perforations.
Place about 1 tablespoon of the chicken mixture onto the wide end of each triangle.
Starting at the wide end, gently roll the dough over the filling towards the pointed tip, fully enclosing the filling and forming a crescent shape.
Place each crescent puff seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining dough and filling.
Brush each crescent puff with the beaten egg to give them a golden, glossy finish during baking.
If desired, sprinkle the crescent puffs with poppy seeds for added texture and flavor.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the crescents are golden brown and cooked through.
Remove the crescent puffs from the oven and allow them to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm or at room temperature!
