Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a mixing bowl, combine shredded chicken, chopped spinach, cream cheese, mozzarella cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until evenly combined.
Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate it into 8 triangles. Arrange the triangles in a circular pattern on the prepared baking sheet, with the wide ends overlapping in the center, creating a sunburst shape.
Spoon the chicken and spinach mixture evenly onto the wide ends of the triangles, keeping the filling close to the center of the ring.
Gently fold the pointed ends of the crescent triangles over the filling and tuck them under the wide ends in the center. The filling should peek through the spaces between the dough.
Brush the top of the dough with beaten egg white for a golden finish. Sprinkle sesame seeds on top if desired.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18–20 minutes, or until the crescent dough is golden brown and cooked through.
Remove from the oven and let the ring cool for a few minutes before slicing into 8 pieces. Serve warm and enjoy!
