Baked Chicken Stuffed Crescent Rolls

  1. Preheat the Oven:
    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a baking sheet or line it with parchment paper.
  2. Prepare the Filling:
    In a medium bowl, combine the shredded chicken, cream cheese, cheddar cheese, green onions, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.
  3. Prepare the Crescent Rolls:
    • Open the cans of crescent rolls and separate the dough into triangles.
    • Place a heaping tablespoon of the chicken mixture onto the wide end of each triangle.
  4. Roll and Arrange:
    Roll up each triangle, starting from the wide end, and tuck the edges slightly to seal the filling. Place the rolls on the prepared baking sheet.
  5. Bake to Perfection:
    Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the crescent rolls are golden brown and flaky.
  6. Cool and Serve:
    Remove from the oven and let the rolls cool for a few minutes. Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce or side dish.
