Baked Chicken Stuffed Crescent Rolls: A Comforting and Easy Dinner Delight

 






Method to Make Baked Chicken Stuffed Crescent Rolls

Step 1: Prepare the Chicken Filling

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, softened cream cheese, mayonnaise, shredded cheddar cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.
  2. Mix well until all the ingredients are evenly combined and the mixture is creamy.

Step 2: Preheat the Oven

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it to prevent sticking.

Step 3: Assemble the Crescent Rolls

  1. Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate it into individual triangles.
  2. Place a spoonful of the chicken mixture (about 1–2 tablespoons) in the center of the widest part of each triangle.
  3. Roll the dough up starting from the wide end, tucking the filling inside as you go. Pinch the edges to seal if needed.

Step 4: Bake the Rolls

  1. Arrange the stuffed crescent rolls on the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between them to expand.
  2. Brush the tops with melted butter for extra golden color and flavor.
  3. Bake in the preheated oven for 12–15 minutes, or until the rolls are golden brown and puffed.

Step 5: Serve and Enjoy

Remove the rolls from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes. Garnish with chopped parsley for a pop of color before serving.

Tips for Perfect Baked Chicken Stuffed Crescent Rolls

  1. Use Rotisserie Chicken: For convenience, rotisserie chicken is a time-saver and adds extra flavor.
  2. Customize the Filling: Add diced cooked bacon, chopped green onions, or a sprinkle of ranch seasoning for a flavor boost.
  3. Seal the Edges Well: To avoid any filling leaking out during baking, press the edges of the dough together firmly.
  4. Reheat with Care: If you have leftovers, reheat them in the oven or air fryer for a few minutes to maintain the crispy texture.

  • Serve these crescent rolls with a side of marinara sauce or ranch dressing for dipping.
