Description

Cheesy chicken stuffed in crescent rolls.

Ingredients

  • 2 whole Large Chicken Breasts
  • 1 cup Cheddar Cheese
  • 1 cup Colby Jack Cheese
  • 8 ounces, weight Cream Cheese
  • ¼ teaspoons Salt
  • ¼ teaspoons Pepper
  • 1 package (8 Oz. Size) Crescent Rolls
  • 2 Tablespoons Melted Butter
  • 2 Tablespoons Italian Bread Crumbs

Preparation

Boil chicken in water over medium-high heat. Once it is done, about 20-30 minutes, shred it with 2 forks. Add the cheddar, colby jack, cream cheese, salt, and pepper, and mix all together until it is well combined.

Roll out the crescent rolls, keeping 2 rolls together at a time. Take 1/4 of the chicken/cheese mixture and place in each crescent pair and roll up. Place seam-down on a baking sheet. Pour or brush a little bit of melted butter on top and sprinkle on some bread crumbs. Bake at 350ºF for 20-25 minutes.

That’s good to know, jessswan. I have come to realize unless I am baking with cream cheese and can’t really taste it then original cream cheese or neufchatel is always the better choice. There’s even just something about the way fat-free looks and spreads… I also really like the garlic salt on top so I’ll try that next time.

Word to the Wise: Just make these as the recipe says, because using fat-free cream cheese to make them healthier tastes awful. We did use reduced-fat crescent rolls, which were actually pretty good. That said, I could tell how these were SUPPOSED to taste and will use Neufchatel cheese next time. I used butter-flavored cooking spray on top instead of real butter, and topped them with garlic salt instead of bread crumbs. These are super easy to make, and are going to be on our favorite list! Thanks for sharing!
