Ingredients for Chicken Crescent Roll Casserole

  • Two cans of refrigerated crescent roll dough, each with 8 ounces
  • 2 cups of shredded, cooked chicken
  • 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 can of cream of chicken soup (10.5 oz)
  • One cup of sour cream
  • 1/2 cup of milk
  • 1/2 cup of cooked and crumbled bacon (optional)
  • 1/4 cup of finely chopped onion
  • Add salt and pepper to taste.
  • You can add fresh herbs or more cheese as a garnish if you want.

Instructions

  1. Turn your oven on to 375°F (190°C). To keep it from sticking, grease a baking dish that is 9 by 13 inches.
  2. Unroll the crescent roll dough and cut it into triangles. Put a spoonful of shredded chicken and a little bit of cheddar cheese on the wide end of each triangle. Starting at the wide end, roll up the crescents so that the chicken and cheese are completely covered.
  3. Place the rolled crescents in the prepared baking dish, ensuring they are evenly spaced.
  4. In a mixing bowl, combine the cream of chicken soup, sour cream, milk, and chopped onion. Add salt and pepper to taste, then pour the sauce over the crescent rolls in the dish.

  2. Put the casserole in the oven that has already been heated and bake it for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the sauce is bubbling and the crescent rolls are golden brown.
  3. Take out of the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving. If you choose, you can add fresh herbs or more cheese to the dish before serving.
