Ingredients

• 🥖 1 can (8 oz / 226 g) crescent roll dough
• 🍗 1 cup (150 g) cooked shredded chicken (rotisserie, leftover chicken breast, or canned)
• 🍅 1/2 cup (120 ml) marinara sauce
• 🧀 1 cup (100 g) shredded mozzarella cheese
• 🥄 1/4 cup (25 g) grated Parmesan cheese
• 🌿 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning (blend of basil, oregano, and thyme)
• 🧄 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
• 🧂Salt and pepper, to taste
• 🌱Optional garnish: Extra Parmesan and fresh parsley

Preparation Method

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and make cleanup a breeze. 🧑‍🍳🔥

Roll out the crescent roll dough on a clean, flat surface. Gently separate it into individual triangles. The dough is delicate, so handle it carefully to avoid tearing. 🥖✨

In a medium mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, marinara sauce, mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Stir until the chicken is evenly coated and the mixture is well combined. The filling should be thick but spreadable. 🍗🧀🥣

Place a generous tablespoon of the chicken mixture onto the wide end of each crescent roll triangle. Roll up each triangle from the wide end to the tip, tucking in the sides as you go to help seal the filling inside. Don’t worry if a little cheese peeks out—it’ll create delicious crispy edges! 😍🥄

Arrange the stuffed crescent rolls on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them apart to ensure even baking. 🧑‍🍳🥖

Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the crescent rolls are golden brown and the cheese inside is melted and bubbly. Your kitchen will smell heavenly! 🧀🔥

Remove from the oven and let the rolls cool for a few minutes before serving. For an extra touch, sprinkle with more Parmesan and fresh parsley. Serve warm for maximum cheesy goodness! 🌱🥖💛

Tips and Conclusion

Want to switch things up? Substitute the marinara sauce with pesto for a fresh twist, or use barbecue sauce for a smoky variation. Prefer spicier flavors? Add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the filling. These rolls pair perfectly with a side salad, soup, or extra marinara sauce for dipping. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container and reheated in the oven for a crispier texture. 🥗🍲🔥
