Description

This Cheesy Chicken Crescent Roll Bake is a comforting and easy-to-make casserole featuring shredded chicken mixed with mozzarella cheese and seasoned with garlic and oregano, all wrapped in flaky crescent rolls. The rolls are baked in a creamy sauce made from cream of chicken soup and milk, resulting in a flavorful, cheesy, and satisfying dish perfect for family dinners.

Ingredients

Scale

Chicken Mixture

  • 1 lb boneless, skinless cooked and shredded chicken
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 2 tsp garlic powder
  • 2 tsp oregano

Crescent Rolls

  • 2 packages (8 count each) crescent rolls

Sauce

  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 10.5 oz cream of chicken soup
  • 10.5 oz milk (use cream of chicken soup can for measurement)

Instructions

  1. Prepare Chicken Mixture: In a large bowl, combine the cooked and shredded chicken with 1/2 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese. Sprinkle garlic powder and oregano over the mixture and stir well to evenly coat all ingredients.
  2. Fill Crescent Rolls: Unroll each crescent roll dough piece. Spoon about 1/3 cup of the chicken mixture onto the wide end of each crescent roll. Carefully roll the dough over the filling toward the narrow end, sealing the edges to keep the filling inside. Repeat until all crescent rolls are filled.
  3. Arrange in Baking Pan: Place all stuffed crescent rolls seam-side down in a greased 9×13 inch baking dish, arranging them so they fit snugly but not overcrowded.
  4. Make Sauce: On the stovetop, combine the remaining 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese, cream of chicken soup, and milk in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir continuously until the cheese melts and the sauce is warm and smooth, but not boiling.
  5. Pour Sauce Over Rolls: Evenly pour the warm creamy sauce over the filled crescent rolls in the baking pan, making sure each roll is coated with the cheesy mixture.
  6. Bake: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the baking dish in the oven and bake for 30 to 40 minutes until the crescent rolls are golden brown on top and the sauce is bubbly.
  7. Serve: Remove from oven and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your warm, cheesy chicken crescent roll bake!

Notes

  • Use freshly cooked chicken or leftover rotisserie chicken for convenience.
  • Make sure to seal the crescent rolls well to prevent filling from leaking during baking.
  • You can substitute mozzarella cheese with a blend of cheddar and mozzarella for extra flavor.
  • To save time, use pre-shredded mozzarella cheese.
  • Serve with a fresh salad or steamed vegetables for a complete meal.
