Equipment

  • 9x13-inch baking dish
  • Medium bowl

Ingredients
  

For the Filling

  • 2 cups Cooked Chicken Use shredded rotisserie chicken for convenience
  • 1 cup Shredded Cheddar Cheese Substitute with Monterey Jack for a twist

For the Dough

  • 2 cans Refrigerated Crescent Rolls Unroll and separate into triangles before filling

For the Sauce

  • 1 can Cream of Chicken Soup Cream of mushroom can be used as an alternative
  • ½ cup Milk Dairy or non-dairy milk will work

Seasonings

For Garnish

  • 2 tablespoons Chopped Parsley Optional, adds a colorful touch

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish to prevent sticking.
  • Unroll and separate the crescent dough into triangles carefully. At the wide end of each triangle, place a spoonful of cooked chicken and a sprinkle of shredded cheddar cheese before rolling them up tightly from the wide end.
  • Whisk together the cream of chicken soup, milk, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper in a medium bowl until it's nice and smooth.
  • Pour the creamy mixture evenly over the crescent rolls, ensuring each piece gets some of that rich goodness.
  • Sprinkle the remaining shredded cheddar cheese on top.
  • Bake for 25-30 minutes or until the crescents are golden brown and the sauce is bubbling.
  • Cool for about 5 minutes before serving.

Garnish

  • Garnish with chopped parsley if desired.
