3. Assembling the Roll Ups:
Unroll the crescent dough and separate it into triangles along the perforated lines. Spoon a generous amount of the prepared chicken mixture onto the wider end of each triangle. Then, sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese on top of the chicken mixture.
4. Rolling and Baking:
Carefully roll up each triangle of dough, starting from the end filled with the chicken mixture, to create a crescent shape. Place each roll-up on the greased baking sheet with the tip underneath to prevent them from unrolling during baking.
For an extra golden finish, brush the tops of the roll-ups with melted butter before placing them in the oven.
5. Baking to Perfection:
Bake the chicken crescent roll ups in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until they turn a beautiful golden brown and the dough is fully cooked.
6. Serving:
Once baked, allow the roll-ups to cool slightly before serving. If desired, garnish them with fresh parsley for a touch of color and freshness. Serve the chicken crescent roll ups warm and enjoy the delicious flavors!
