Ingredients
  

  • 0.5 can refrigerated crescent roll dough
  • 2.0 cups cooked chicken, shredded
  • 1.0 cup fresh broccoli florets, steamed
  • 1.0 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 0.5 cup cream cheese, softened
  • 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 0.5 teaspoon onion powder
  • 0.0 teaspoon salt and pepper to taste
  • 1.0 tablespoon olive oil
  • 0.5 teaspoon paprika

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • Prepare the Filling: In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, steamed broccoli, cream cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined. Stir in 0.75 cup of the shredded cheddar cheese, reserving the remaining 0.25 cup for topping.
  • Roll Out the Dough: Unroll the crescent roll dough on a clean surface and separate it into rectangles by pinching the seams where the triangles meet to form a solid rectangle.
  • Fill the Dough: Spoon about 0.125-0.1875 cups of the chicken and broccoli mixture onto the center of each rectangle. Fold the dough over the filling, pinching the edges to seal tightly.
  • Place on Baking Sheet: Lightly grease a baking sheet with olive oil or line it with parchment paper. Place the filled crescent rolls on the baking sheet, seam side down.
  • Top with Cheese: Sprinkle the reserved cheddar cheese over the tops of the crescent rolls, followed by a light dusting of paprika for added color.
  • Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the crescent rolls are golden brown and cooked through.
  • Serve: Remove from the oven and let cool for a couple of minutes before serving. Enjoy your Cheesy Broccoli and Chicken Crescent Roll Delight warm!
