Topped with a creamy sauce made from cream of chicken soup and milk, then baked until golden and bubbly, this dish serves as a perfect hearty meal for families or gatherings.

Ingredients

Chicken Mixture

  • 1 lb boneless, skinless cooked and shredded chicken
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (divided as 1/2 cup in chicken and 1/2 cup for sauce)
  • 2 tsp garlic powder
  • 2 tsp oregano

Crescent Rolls

  • 2 packages crescent rolls (8 count each)

Sauce

  • 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 bowl, combine the cooked and shredded chicken with 1/2 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese. Sprinkle garlic powder and oregano over the mixture, then stir thoroughly to coat all ingredients evenly with the seasoning.
  2. Stuff Crescent Rolls: Unroll each crescent roll carefully. Scoop about 1/3 cup of the chicken mixture and place it near the wide end of the crescent roll. Slowly roll the crescent roll up, encasing the filling inside. Repeat this process until all crescent rolls are filled.
  3. Arrange in Baking Pan: Place all the stuffed crescent rolls snugly in a 9×13-inch baking pan, ensuring they are evenly spaced for uniform baking.
  4. Prepare Creamy Sauce: On the stovetop, combine the remaining 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese, cream of chicken soup, and milk in a saucepan. Heat gently, stirring occasionally, until the mixture is fully melted, smooth, and warm but not boiling.
  5. Pour Sauce Over Rolls: Carefully pour the warm creamy sauce over the arranged crescent rolls in the baking pan, making sure all rolls are coated well with the mixture.
  6. Bake: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the baking pan in the oven and bake for about 30 to 40 minutes, until the crescent rolls turn golden brown and the sauce is bubbly around the edges.
  7. Serve: Once baked, remove from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your cheesy, flavorful chicken crescent roll bake warm!
