Main Ingredients

  • 2 can refrigerated crescent dinner roll dough 8 ounces each
  • 2 cup cooked chicken shredded
  • 8 oz cream cheese softened
  • ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • ¼ cup green onions thinly sliced
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • ¼ tsp black pepper
  • 1 tbsp unsalted butter melted, for brushing

Instructions
 

Cooking

  • Mix the filling. Combine the chicken, cream cheese, cheddar, green onions, garlic powder, and pepper until creamy.
  • Cut the dough. Open both cans on parchment and separate the 16 triangles.
  • Roll them up. Add about 3 tablespoons of filling to each wide end and roll toward the tip.
  • Bake golden. Brush with butter and bake at 375 degrees F for 12 to 15 minutes until deep golden.
  • Cool slightly. Rest 5 minutes before serving since the centers are hot.

Notes

Substitutions: Use shredded turkey or ham, and crescent dough sheets cut into 16 rectangles.
Tips: Keep the dough cold and do not overfill the triangles.
Storage: Refrigerate for up to 3 days and reheat in an oven set to 350 degrees F until 165 degrees F. Freeze unbaked rolls for up to 2 months.
