Description

These Cream Cheese Chicken Croissants are a decadent and flavorful dish that combines tender chicken, creamy cheese, and flaky croissant dough for a perfect meal or appetizer.


Ingredients

Units Scale

For the Filling:

  • 1 cup cooked and shredded chicken
  • 4 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
  • Salt and pepper to taste

For the Croissants:

  • 1 package refrigerated crescent roll dough
  • 1/4 cup melted butter
  • 1/4 cup seasoned bread crumbs

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Filling: In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, cream cheese, Parmesan cheese, parsley, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.
  2. Assemble the Croissants: Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate into triangles. Spoon a portion of the filling onto each triangle. Roll up the croissants, tucking in the edges to seal the filling inside.
  3. Bake: Brush the croissants with melted butter and sprinkle with bread crumbs. Bake in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown.
  4. Serve: Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy these Cream Cheese Chicken Croissants warm.

Notes

  • You can customize the filling by adding ingredients like diced bell peppers, onions, or herbs.
  • These croissants can be made ahead of time and refrigerated before baking.
