How To Make Crescent and Chicken Roll-ups
Preheat the oven to 400
Line a baking tray with parchment paper or aluminum foil.
In a large bowl, using two forks, shred the chicken breasts.
In another bowl, combine the condensed cream of chicken soup mix with ½ cup chicken broth and stir well.
Add the shredded chicken to the soup mixture.
Add in one half of the shredded cheese.
Open the crescent roll can, lay out the crescent rolls with the wide end near you.
Place a spoonful of chicken mixture on the edge of the roll and begin rolling to the point.
Gently pinch the dough so that it stays together at the point.
Place the crescent rolls on the baking tray and put into the oven.
Bake for 25 minutes, and slide tray out.
Sprinkle the tops with the remaining cheese and slide tray back in.
Allow to cook until the cheese is melted.
For a fun twist on classic Crescent and Chicken Roll-ups, there are plenty of variations to explore.
You can spice things up by adding buffalo sauce to the chicken filling, or switch to BBQ sauce for a smoky flavor.
Mixing in cooked spinach or using taco seasoning with black beans and corn can give the dish a fresh new spin, while adding garlic and Italian herbs offers a more aromatic option.
For convenience, rotisserie chicken can be used in place of cooking your own.
To ensure perfect results, gently pinch the dough seams to prevent filling from leaking, and keep an eye on the baking time to avoid overbrowning.
You can also experiment with different cheeses like mozzarella or pepper jack for added flavor.
Serve with sides like salad or dipping sauces to make it a complete, satisfying meal.
To store Crescent and Chicken Roll-ups, it’s important to first let them cool completely to prevent any moisture buildup. Once cooled, place them in an airtight container or wrap them individually in plastic wrap or aluminum foil.
They can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. For longer storage, you can freeze the roll-ups by wrapping them tightly and placing them in a freezer-safe bag or container, where they’ll keep for up to 2-3 months.
When ready to enjoy, simply reheat them in the oven at 350°F for 10-15 minutes, or in the microwave for about a minute, ensuring they stay crispy and warm.
