Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Filling
- In a medium bowl, combine the shredded chicken, cream cheese, cheddar cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Stir until the mixture is well combined and creamy.
Step 2: Roll Out the Crescent Dough
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Unroll the crescent dough and separate it into individual triangles on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Step 3: Fill and Roll the Crescent Rolls
- Place about 2 tablespoons of the chicken filling in the center of each crescent triangle.
- Roll up each crescent, starting at the wide end, to encase the filling completely. Pinch the edges to seal the rolls and prevent the filling from escaping.
Step 4: Bake the Stuffed Crescent Rolls
- Brush each stuffed crescent roll with a little olive oil or melted butter for a golden, crispy finish.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the rolls are golden brown and puffed up.
Step 5: Garnish and Serve
- Once baked, remove the rolls from the oven and let them cool slightly.
- Sprinkle with fresh parsley for a pop of color and added flavor. Serve warm and enjoy!
