Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 8 oz cream cheese
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 3 stalks green onions, finely chopped
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1 tsp salt
- 0.5 tsp black pepper
- 1 package package of refrigerated crescent rolls (8 rolls)
- 2 tbsp butter, melted
- 0.5 cup panko breadcrumbs
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Cook the chicken breasts by boiling or baking until fully cooked (about 15–20 minutes). Let them cool slightly, then shred them using two forks.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, cream cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, green onions, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined and creamy.
Unroll the crescent rolls on a clean surface and separate them into individual triangles.
Place a spoonful of the chicken mixture at the wider end of each crescent roll triangle. Roll the triangle tightly, starting from the wide end and working toward the tip.
Place the rollups on the prepared baking sheet.
Brush the tops of the rollups with melted butter, then sprinkle panko breadcrumbs over each one for added crunch.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12–15 minutes, or until the crescent rolls are golden brown and fully cooked.
Remove from the oven and let them rest for 2–3 minutes before serving.
Serve warm as a main course or appetizer, paired with your favorite dipping sauce or side dish!
