Chicken Stuffed Crescent Rolls

Ingredients

• 2 cans crescent roll dough
• 2 cups cooked shredded chicken
• 1.5 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
• 4 oz cream cheese (Softened)
• 0.25 cup sour cream
• 2 cloves garlic (Minced)
• 1 tsp Italian seasoning
• 2 tbsp fresh parsley (Chopped; plus more for garnish if desired)
• 2 tbsp butter (Melted; for brushing after baking)
• 1 egg (Beaten, for brushing)
• 1 tsp salt
• 0.5 tsp black pepper

Steps

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking tray with parchment paper. Unroll the crescent dough and separate it into individual triangles, keeping the triangles ready for filling.

2. 2

   Place the cooked shredded chicken in a mixing bowl.

3. 3

   Add the softened cream cheese, sour cream, shredded mozzarella, minced garlic, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper to the bowl.

4. 4

   Mix until the ingredients are evenly distributed and the filling is creamy and well combined.

5. 5

   Place a spoonful of the chicken mixture near the wide end of each crescent-dough triangle. Avoid overfilling so the seams can be sealed.

6. 6

   Roll each triangle tightly from the wide end toward the tip, tucking the filling inside and gently sealing the dough around it.

7. 7

   Arrange the stuffed rolls on the parchment-lined baking tray, leaving space between them for the dough to puff.

8. 8

   Brush the tops of the rolls with the beaten egg. If desired, sprinkle with a little extra cheese or herbs for a golden, flavorful finish.

9. 9

   Bake for 15–20 minutes, until the crescent dough is puffed and golden brown and the cheese filling is melted. The centers should be hot before serving.

10. 10

    Brush the hot baked rolls with melted butter.

11. 11

    Garnish with additional fresh parsley, if desired, and serve warm.

Notes

Serve warm. The source suggests extra cheese or herbs before baking and fresh parsley for garnish, but does not specify an amount.
