Ingredients:
- 3 cups shredded cooked chicken (a rotisserie chicken works well)
- 8-ounce block cream cheese, softened to room temperature
- 10.5-ounce can cream of chicken soup
- 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley flakes
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- 2 cans crescent roll dough
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
Instructions:
- Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly spray a large sheet tray with cooking spray and set it aside.
- Prepare the Filling: In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, cream cheese, cream of chicken soup, grated Parmesan cheese, dried parsley flakes, black pepper, kosher salt, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix until thoroughly combined. For best results, use an electric hand mixer to ensure the ingredients are well blended.
- Form the Bundles: Open the cans of crescent roll dough. Take two of the rolls and pinch the seams together to form a rectangle. Place the rectangle on the prepared sheet tray. Repeat with the remaining dough.
- Add the Filling: Spoon about a heaping ¼ cup of the chicken mixture onto the center of each dough rectangle.
- Seal the Bundles: Carefully pull up the four corners of the crescent rolls, pinching the seams together to enclose the filling completely. Ensure that the seams are sealed tightly to prevent any filling from leaking out during baking.
- Bake: Brush the tops of the bundles with the melted butter. Bake in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the bundles are golden brown.
- Garnish and Serve: For an extra touch of flavor, sprinkle additional dried parsley over the top of the baked bundles if desired. Serve immediately while warm and enjoy!
Tips and Advice:
- Make Ahead: These chicken bundles can be prepared in advance and stored in the refrigerator until ready to bake. Simply brush with butter just before baking.
- Versatile Filling: Feel free to customize the filling by adding chopped vegetables, like spinach or bell peppers, or swapping the cream of chicken soup with cream of mushroom for a different flavor.
- Serve with Sides: These bundles pair wonderfully with a simple side salad or steamed vegetables to round out the meal.
