Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups cooked chicken (shredded or diced)
- 1 package refrigerated crescent roll dough
- 4 ounces cream cheese (softened)
- 1 cup sour cream
- 0.5 cup chicken broth
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 0.5 teaspoons onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoons garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 2 tablespoons butter (melted)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, sour cream, chicken broth, onion powder, garlic powder, dried parsley, salt, and black pepper. Mix until smooth and well blended.
Add the shredded or diced chicken to the cream cheese mixture and stir until evenly coated. Set aside.
Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate it into individual triangles. Place a small scoop (about 2-3 tablespoons) of the chicken mixture onto the wide end of each triangle and roll it up, tucking in the edges as needed.
Arrange the filled crescent rolls seam-side down in the prepared baking dish.
Pour the remaining cream cheese mixture over the top of the crescent rolls, spreading it evenly.
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the casserole, covering it generously.
Drizzle the melted butter over the cheddar cheese for added richness and flavor.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the crescent rolls are golden brown and the cheese is bubbly.
Let cool for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy this creamy, cheesy delight with a side salad or steamed vegetables!
