Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups cooked chicken (shredded or diced)
- 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of chicken soup
- 1 cup sour cream
- 0.5 cup milk
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 can (8 oz) crescent rolls
- 2 tablespoons butter (melted)
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley (optional, for garnish)
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with non-stick spray or butter.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the cream of chicken soup, sour cream, milk, shredded cheddar cheese, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Stir until smooth and set aside.
Open the crescent roll dough and separate it into triangles along the perforations.
Place a small amount of shredded or diced chicken (approximately 1-2 tablespoons) onto the wide end of each crescent roll triangle.
Carefully roll up each crescent roll, starting at the wide end and rolling toward the pointed tip, enclosing the chicken inside.
Arrange the rolled-up crescent rolls seam-side down in the prepared baking dish.
Pour the soup mixture evenly over the top of the crescent rolls, ensuring they are mostly covered.
Brush the tops of the crescent rolls with melted butter, and optionally sprinkle with dried parsley for added flavor and presentation.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the crescent rolls are golden brown and the sauce is bubbly.
Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
