Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded or chopped
  • 1 tube (8-count) refrigerated crescent rolls
  • 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of chicken soup
  • 0.5 cup milk
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese, divided
  • 0.5 tsp garlic powder
  • 0.5 tsp onion powder
  • 0.25 tsp black pepper
  • chopped parsley, for garnish (optional)

Equipment

  • 9x13-inch baking dish
  • Mixing bowl
  • Whisk
  • Spoon or spatula

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
  2. Unroll crescent dough. Place chicken and a sprinkle of cheese at the wide end of each triangle. Roll toward the point and arrange seam-side down in the dish.
  3. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the cream of chicken soup, milk, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper until smooth.
  4. Pour the sauce evenly over the rolled crescents. Sprinkle the remaining cheese on top.
  5. Bake for 25–30 minutes, until bubbly and golden brown.
  6. Let rest for 5 minutes, garnish with parsley, and serve warm.

Notes

For extra creaminess, stir 2 tablespoons of sour cream into the sauce mixture. Make it kid-friendly by adding a touch of ranch dressing to the filling. Double the recipe for parties — it’s always a hit!
