Ingredients
- 2 cups cooked chicken breast, shredded or chopped (about 250g)
- 1/2 cup Alfredo sauce (120ml)
- 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (56g)
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese (25g)
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped (optional)
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 tube refrigerated crescent roll dough (8 crescents, 226g)
- Extra Parmesan cheese, for sprinkling
- 1 egg, beaten with 1 tablespoon water (for egg wash, optional)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
- In a medium bowl, combine cooked chicken, Alfredo sauce, mozzarella, Parmesan, parsley (if using), salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Stir until evenly coated and creamy.
- Open the crescent roll tube and separate into 8 triangles. Place each triangle on the baking sheet. Spoon about 2 tablespoons of chicken Alfredo filling onto the wide end of each triangle.
- Gently roll up each crescent, starting at the wide end, and tuck the edges to seal in the filling. Place seam-side down. Brush the tops with egg wash (if using) and sprinkle with extra Parmesan.
- Bake for 13–16 minutes, until crescents are golden brown and filling is bubbling at the edges. Cool for 3–4 minutes before serving.
Notes
For best results, shred your own cheese for extra meltiness. Don’t overfill the crescents to avoid leaks. Keep dough cold for easier handling. Variations include adding veggies, using gluten-free or dairy-free alternatives, or swapping in turkey or ham. Leftovers can be refrigerated for up to 3 days or frozen for up to 2 months.
