Description
This Cheesy Chicken Crescent Bake is a delicious and easy meal that combines shredded chicken, cheese, and crescent roll dough into a comforting dish.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
- 1 package (8 oz) refrigerated crescent roll dough
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 can (10 oz) cream of chicken soup
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- to taste Salt and black pepper
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the filling: In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, cream of chicken soup, sour cream, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Stir until everything is smooth and evenly coated. Then fold in half of the mozzarella and cheddar cheese. The mixture should look creamy and thick, almost like a rich chicken dip.
- Prepare the crescent rolls: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a baking dish. Unroll the crescent dough and separate it into triangles. Spoon a generous amount of the chicken mixture onto the wide end of each triangle.
- Roll and arrange: Gently roll each crescent around the filling, starting from the wide end and rolling toward the point. Place them seam-side down in the baking dish. As they bake, the dough will puff and turn beautifully golden.
- Add the final cheese layer: Sprinkle the remaining mozzarella and cheddar cheese over the top. This extra layer melts into a bubbly, golden crust that makes the Cheesy Chicken Crescent Bake completely irresistible.
- Bake to perfection: Bake for 20–25 minutes, or until the crescent rolls are golden brown and the cheese is melted and slightly bubbly. Let it rest for about 5 minutes before serving. That short wait allows everything to set up perfectly.
Notes
- When you cut into one, you’ll see creamy chicken filling wrapped in flaky layers — the kind of meal that makes everyone reach for seconds.
