Ingredients
Scale
- 1 can (8 oz) refrigerated crescent roll dough
- 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded or diced
- 1 cup Alfredo sauce (store-bought or homemade)
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Cook your chicken if not already done. Shred or dice it into bite-sized pieces.
- In a large bowl, combine shredded chicken, Alfredo sauce, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.
- Fold in shredded mozzarella and grated Parmesan cheese into the chicken mixture.
- Carefully open the can of crescent roll dough and unroll it on a clean surface.
- Gently separate the dough into 8 individual triangles along the perforated lines.
- Place a spoonful of the chicken mixture at the wide end of each triangle.
- Starting from the wide end, roll the triangle towards the pointed end, tucking in the filling and pinching the edges to seal.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or grease it lightly. Place the rolled crescents on the sheet, leaving space between each.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown and puffed up.
- Monitor the crescents as they bake. If they brown too quickly, cover loosely with aluminum foil.
- Once baked, let the crescents cool for a few minutes on the baking sheet.
- Sprinkle freshly chopped parsley over the top before serving.
- Enjoy these crescents warm, either as a main dish or appetizer, paired with a side salad or steamed vegetables.
Notes
- Allow crescents to cool completely before storing in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- Reheat in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10 minutes or microwave for a quicker option.
- Add sautéed vegetables like spinach, mushrooms, or bell peppers for added nutrition.
- For a spicy kick, include crushed red pepper flakes in the filling.
