CHICKEN CRESCENT ROLLS



Chicken Crescent Rolls image

Just 5 ingredients and 10 minutes of prep for these easy, cheesy Chicken Crescent Rolls!

Provided by Blair Lonergan

Categories     Lunch or Dinner

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 cup cooked, finely diced chicken ((or use canned chicken))
1 cup grated cheddar cheese, divided
1 (10.5 oz) can condensed cream of mushroom soup, NOT diluted
¼ cup milk
1 (8 oz) tube refrigerated crescent roll dough (8 count)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • In a bowl, stir together soup, milk and ½ cup of cheese. Pour into the bottom of an 8-inch square baking dish. Set aside.
  • In a separate bowl, combine chicken and remaining ½ cup of cheese.
  • Unroll crescent roll dough and separate into 8 triangles. Place about 1-2 heaping tablespoons of the chicken mixture on the wide end of each crescent roll. Roll the dough up and place each crescent roll (seam-side down) in the bottom of the dish.
  • Bake, uncovered, until the liquid is bubbly and the tops of the crescent rolls are browned (about 25 minutes). The bottom of the rolls (that are submerged in the sauce) will stay soft - like dumplings -- but will still be cooked through.

Tips:

  • When choosing croissants for this recipe, select ones that are fresh and flaky. Avoid croissants that are stale or dense.
  • If you don't have a meat grinder, you can finely chop the chicken in a food processor or with a sharp knife.
  • Be sure to cook the chicken until it is fully cooked through. This will help to prevent foodborne illness.
  • Use a good quality cheddar cheese for the best flavor. A sharp cheddar will give the dish a more intense flavor, while a mild cheddar will be more subtle.
  • If you don't have any fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs instead. Just be sure to use half the amount of dried herbs that you would fresh herbs.
  • Serve the chicken and cheddar croissants warm, with your favorite dipping sauce.

Conclusion:

Chicken and cheddar croissants are a delicious and easy-to-make snack or meal. They are perfect for parties, potlucks, or simply a quick and easy dinner. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a dish that is sure to please everyone.
