Instructions
-
Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil for easy cleanup. -
Prepare the Filling
In a large bowl, combine the shredded chicken, cheddar cheese, diced bell peppers, diced onions, diced tomatoes, chopped parsley, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix everything well until the filling is evenly distributed. -
Stuff and Roll
Unroll the crescent dough and separate it into individual triangles. Place a spoonful of the chicken filling on the wide end of each triangle, then roll it up tightly, tucking the sides to seal the filling inside. -
Bake the Rolls
Place the filled rolls on the prepared baking sheet, leaving a little space between each roll. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the rolls are golden brown on top and cooked through.
-
Cool and Serve
Remove the rolls from the oven and allow them to cool for about 5 minutes before serving. The inside will be very hot, so be careful when you bite into them.
Notes
-
You can use leftover rotisserie chicken for a quicker prep time.
-
Customize the filling by adding other veggies like spinach or mushrooms for added nutrition.
-
For a spicier version, jalapeños or pepper jack cheese can be added to the filling.
-
These rolls are excellent for meal prep! You can prepare them ahead of time and bake them when you’re ready to serve.
