Chicken Stuffed Crescent Rolls are a quick and tasty treat featuring crispy, flaky crescent dough filled with a savory, cheesy chicken mixture. Perfect as a snack, appetizer, or light meal, these rolls combine shredded chicken, cream cheese, cheddar, and fresh green onions for a comforting and flavorful bite ready in under 30 minutes.

Ingredients

For the Crescent Rolls

  • Crescent Roll Dough – 1 package (usually 8 oz)

For the Filling

  • Cooked Chicken (shredded or chopped) – 1 1/2 cups
  • Cream Cheese (softened) – 4 oz
  • Shredded Cheddar Cheese – 1 cup
  • Garlic Powder – 1/2 teaspoon
  • Green Onions (chopped) – 2 tablespoons
  • Salt – 1/4 teaspoon
  • Black Pepper – 1/4 teaspoon

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Filling: In a medium bowl, mix shredded cooked chicken with softened cream cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, chopped green onions, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper until evenly combined and creamy.
  2. Preheat Your Oven: Set your oven to 375°F (190°C) to ensure it’s hot enough for golden, crispy crescent rolls by the time your filling is ready.
  3. Unroll the Crescent Dough: Carefully open the packaged crescent roll dough and separate it into individual triangles on a clean surface, ready for filling.
  4. Fill Each Crescent Triangle: Place a spoonful of the chicken mixture near the wider end of each triangle, then roll the dough tightly toward the tip, sealing the edges gently to prevent leakage.
  5. Bake Until Golden: Arrange the filled rolls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake for 12-15 minutes or until the rolls are golden brown and cooked through.
  6. Serve Warm: Allow the rolls to cool for a couple of minutes, then serve warm to enjoy the melty, comforting flavors.

Notes

  • Use cold crescent dough to make rolling easier and improve texture.
  • Do not overfill the dough to prevent the filling from leaking while baking.
  • Pinch and seal the edges firmly but gently to keep the filling inside.
  • Adjust cream cheese quantity to achieve a smooth but not runny filling.
  • Use parchment paper on the baking sheet to prevent sticking and simplify cleanup.
