Ingredients
Scale
Filling
- 2 cups cooked chicken (shredded)
- 1 (8-ounce) package cream cheese (softened)
- 1/4 cup sour cream
- 1/4 cup chopped green onions
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Dough and Topping
- 2 (8-ounce) cans refrigerated crescent roll dough
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
- 1/3 cup seasoned breadcrumbs (optional)
- Chopped parsley for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure easy cleanup.
- Prepare Filling: In a medium bowl, mix together the shredded chicken, softened cream cheese, sour cream, chopped green onions, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper until fully combined and creamy.
- Shape Dough: Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate into 8 rectangles by pressing the perforations together to seal them, creating a uniform surface for filling.
- Fill Bundles: Place a generous spoonful of the chicken mixture in the center of each rectangle. Carefully fold the corners up and around the filling, pinching the dough to seal and form a neat bundle shape.
- Prepare for Baking: Place each sealed bundle seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Brush the tops with melted butter and sprinkle with seasoned breadcrumbs if desired for added crunch and flavor.
- Bake: Bake the bundles in the preheated oven for 18 to 20 minutes or until the crescent rolls are golden brown and the filling is heated through.
- Serve: Allow the bundles to cool slightly after baking. Garnish with chopped parsley if using and serve warm for best taste.
Notes
- You can add cooked bacon bits, shredded cheddar, or sautéed mushrooms to the filling for extra flavor.
- These bundles make great leftovers and can be reheated in the oven or an air fryer to maintain their crispy texture.
