1 can (10.5 oz) cream of chicken soup, ¾ cup shredded cheddar cheese, ¼ cup milk, 8 oz cream cheese (softened), 2 tablespoons melted butter, ½ teaspoon garlic powder, ⅓ cup finely chopped onion, 2 cooked and cubed chicken breasts, ½ teaspoon salt, ½ teaspoon pepper, 1 package (8 oz) crescent roll dough, 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and spray a 9×9-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the cream of chicken soup, ¾ cup shredded cheddar cheese, and milk. Stir until cheese is melted and the mixture is smooth. Set aside.
In a medium bowl, mix the softened cream cheese, melted butter, garlic powder, chopped onion, cooked chicken, salt, and pepper until well combined.
Spoon a thin layer of the soup mixture into the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
Unroll the crescent dough and separate into triangles. Place a spoonful of the chicken mixture onto each crescent triangle, roll up, and place seam-side down into the baking dish.
Pour the remaining soup mixture evenly over the rolls.
Sprinkle the top with the remaining 2 cups of shredded cheddar cheese.
Bake for 30 minutes, or until bubbly and golden brown.
Let cool slightly before serving.
Use rotisserie chicken for a quick prep option.
Try adding a pinch of paprika or chopped fresh parsley for a pop of flavor and color.
Easily double the recipe for a 9×13-inch pan if serving a crowd.
