Ingredients:
- 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded or diced
- 1 can (8 oz) refrigerated crescent rolls
- 1 cup Alfredo sauce (homemade or store-bought)
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Garlic powder and Italian seasoning (optional, for extra flavor)
Instructions:
- Preheat the Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9×13 inch baking dish with cooking spray or butter.
- Prepare the Chicken:
- If you haven’t already, cook the chicken until it’s fully done. You can bake, grill, or sauté the chicken breasts until they’re cooked through. Once cooked, shred or dice the chicken into bite-sized pieces. Season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning for extra flavor.
- Assemble the Bake:
- Roll out the crescent roll dough and press it into the bottom of the prepared baking dish, covering the bottom completely. If necessary, you can stretch the dough slightly to fit the pan.
- Spread the cooked chicken evenly over the crescent roll dough.
- Pour the Alfredo sauce over the chicken, making sure to cover it evenly.
- Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese and grated Parmesan cheese over the Alfredo sauce.
- Bake the Dish:
- Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the crescent rolls are golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Garnish and Serve:
- Once baked, remove the dish from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes.
- Garnish with chopped fresh parsley for a pop of color and freshness, if desired.
- Slice into squares and serve hot, either as a main dish or alongside a side salad or roasted vegetables.
