Description

Cheesy Chicken Roll Ups are the perfect combination of savory, creamy, and cheesy flavors wrapped in a buttery crescent roll crust. Packed with shredded chicken, cheddar cheese, and a touch of garlic, these roll ups are quick to make and impossible to resist. Perfect for appetizers, lunch, or a cozy dinner, they’re a guaranteed crowd-pleaser!


Ingredients

  • 1 package crescent roll dough
  • 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • ½ cup mayonnaise
  • ¼ cup green onions, chopped
  • ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven
    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure easy cleanup.
  2. Prepare the Filling
    In a large bowl, mix together the shredded chicken, cheddar cheese, mayonnaise, chopped green onions, garlic powder, and black pepper. Stir until everything is well combined.
  3. Unroll the Crescent Dough
    Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate it into individual triangles. Lay them flat on a clean work surface.
  4. Assemble the Roll Ups
    Spoon about 2 tablespoons of the chicken mixture onto the wide end of each crescent triangle. Roll the dough from the wide end to the narrow tip, tucking the filling inside as you roll.
  5. Place on Baking Sheet
    Arrange the roll ups on the prepared baking sheet, leaving enough space between each to expand as they bake.
  6. Top with Parmesan
    Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the top of each roll up for a crispy, golden crust.
  7. Bake
    Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the crescent rolls are puffed and golden brown.
  8. Garnish and Serve
    Once baked, garnish the roll ups with freshly chopped parsley for a pop of color and added flavor. Serve warm and enjoy!

Notes

  • Shortcut Tip: Use rotisserie chicken for quick and easy shredding.
  • Add Veggies: Sneak in finely chopped spinach or bell peppers for a healthy twist.
