Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups cooked shredded chicken
- 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 0.5 teaspoons garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoons onion powder
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 2 packages canned crescent roll dough
- 2 tablespoons butter, melted
- 0.5 cups Italian breadcrumbs
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
In a large bowl, combine the cooked shredded chicken, softened cream cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined and creamy.
Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate it into individual triangles as marked by the perforations.
Place a tablespoon of the chicken mixture at the wider end of each triangle. Roll the dough up from the wide end to the narrow tip, encasing the filling. Pinch any open edges lightly to seal.
Brush the tops of each rolled crescent with melted butter and sprinkle with Italian breadcrumbs for added crunch and flavor.
Place the crescents on the prepared baking sheet, leaving enough space between them to expand as they bake.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the crescents are golden brown and cooked through.
Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy these creamy chicken crescents hot with your favorite dipping sauce, like ranch or honey mustard.
