Steps:
- 1. Set oven at 350. Spray a 9X13 dish with cooking spray (I prefer Butter Flavor PAM). Have cream cheese and butter sitting out to soften while you prepare the chicken and soup mixture
- 2. Mix together in a bowl: milk, 1 cup colby/monterrey jack cheese, and undiluted cream of chicken with herbs soup. Sit to the side
- 3. Cook chicken in skillet and season to taste with garlic pepper or your favorite seasoning (i.e. seasoning salt, salt and pepper). Finely chop chicken strips and sit to the side.
- 4. For filling -- In a bowl mix the soft cream cheese and butter until very smooth, then add in garlic powder. Add in the chopped chicken, mushroom pieces, onion flakes, and cheese; mix well until combined. Add in 2 tablespoons milk; mix to combine (add a little more if the mixture seems too dry).
- 5. Unroll crescent rolls. Place 1-2 tablespoons of the chicken mixture on top of each crescent triangle, then roll up starting at the larger end.
- 6. Pour a small amount of soup mixture on the bottom of the dish, just enough to cover. Then place the crescent rolls seam-side down on top of the soup mixture in the dish.
- 7. Pour the remaning soup mixture on top and sprinkle with 1 cup or more grated cheese or amount desired. Bake for 35 minutes.
Tips:
- To ensure even cooking, use boneless, skinless chicken breasts of similar size.
- For a crispier crust, coat the chicken roll-ups in bread crumbs before baking.
- Feel free to experiment with different cheeses. Mozzarella, cheddar, and Parmesan are all great options.
- Add a layer of cooked spinach or roasted red peppers for an extra boost of flavor and nutrition.
- Serve the chicken roll-ups with your favorite dipping sauce, such as marinara, ranch, or honey mustard.
