Ingredients
This recipe makes about 8 servings and leans on a handful of easy, familiar ingredients.
- 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
- 1/2 cup cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/4 cup chopped green onions
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 cans refrigerated crescent rolls
The cream cheese is the key to a rich, cohesive filling that stays put as the rolls bake, while the cheddar and green onions add sharpness and a fresh bite.
Step-by-Step Instructions
From bowl to table, these come together in well under half an hour.
- Preheat: Heat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) and lightly grease a baking sheet.
- Make the filling: In a medium bowl, mix the shredded chicken, cream cheese, cheddar, green onions, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper until well combined.
- Separate the dough: Open both cans of crescent rolls and separate the dough into individual triangles.
- Fill and roll: Place a heaping tablespoon of the chicken mixture on the wide end of each triangle, then roll it up toward the point and set it on the baking sheet.
- Bake: Bake 12 to 15 minutes, until the rolls are puffed and golden brown.
- Cool and serve: Let them rest a few minutes before serving so the filling sets slightly.
