Ingredients
Scale
- 1 can (8 oz) refrigerated crescent roll dough
- 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded or diced
- 1 cup Alfredo sauce (store-bought or homemade)
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked chicken, Alfredo sauce, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Mix until the chicken is well coated with the sauce.
- Fold in the shredded mozzarella cheese and half of the grated Parmesan cheese. Set aside to let the flavors meld.
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Open the can of crescent roll dough and unroll it, separating it into 8 triangles.
- Lay out the crescent triangles on a clean surface or a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, with the wide end facing you.
- Place a generous spoonful of the chicken Alfredo filling at the wide end of each crescent triangle.
- Starting from the wide end, roll the crescent dough over the filling towards the pointed end, tucking in the sides as you roll.
- Place the rolled crescents on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, spaced apart.
- Sprinkle the remaining grated Parmesan cheese over the top of each crescent.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown and puffed up.
- Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes.
- Transfer the crescents to a serving platter and garnish with freshly chopped parsley.
- Serve warm as an appetizer, snack, or main dish with a side salad.
- Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator and reheat in the oven or microwave.
Notes
- For added nutrition, consider mixing in steamed broccoli or spinach into the filling.
