Description
A cozy and comforting dish featuring layers of shredded chicken, melting cheese, and flaky crescent dough.
Ingredients
- 2 cans (8 oz each) refrigerated crescent roll dough
- 2 cups cooked, shredded chicken
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 1 packet (1 oz) ranch seasoning mix
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella
- 1/4 cup chopped green onions (plus extra for garnish)
- 1/2 cup frozen mixed vegetables, thawed (optional)
- 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
- Unroll one can of crescent dough and lay it in the bottom of the dish, pressing seams together to form an even base.
- In a large bowl, combine shredded chicken, sour cream, mayonnaise, ranch seasoning, green onions, mixed vegetables (if using), and half of the cheddar and mozzarella. Season with salt and pepper.
- Spread the chicken mixture evenly over the dough base. Unroll the second can of crescent dough and lay it over the filling, sealing edges by pressing dough together gently.
- Brush the top with beaten egg and sprinkle remaining cheese over the top. Bake for 25–30 minutes or until golden brown and bubbly.
- Let the Cheesy Chicken Crescent Bake rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing. Garnish with additional green onions.
Notes
Avoid overfilling to ensure the dough bakes through. You can use rotisserie chicken to save time.
