Colder weather means comfort food, and these stuffed crescent rolls are comfort food all the way. This dinner is super easy to make - great for a weeknight meal. It's a cross between chicken noodle soup and chicken dumplings. Kids are going to love this. Easy dinner on a cold day.

How To Make cheesy chicken crescent roll

Test Kitchen Tips
We cooked our chicken in the Instant Pot. We added 1 cup chicken broth to the pot. Then sprinkled salt and pepper over the chicken. Cooked on high pressure for 14 minutes. Then a quick release.
  • Chop cooked chicken breasts.
    1
    Cook the chicken how you like. I sprinkle a little salt, pepper, onion, and garlic powder. Then cook in a frying pan with a little olive oil. You can also use a rotisserie chicken pulled off bone and skin removed. Dice cooked chicken.
  • Mix 1/2 c mozzarella cheese with chicken.
    2
    Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Add 1/2 c mozzarella cheese to a bowl with the chicken and mix. Set aside.
  • Unroll crescent roll dough.
    3
    Separate and unroll the crescent rolls.
  • Place chicken and cheese on one end of crescent roll dough.
    4
    Place chicken and cheese mixture on the large end of a separated crescent roll.
  • Roll the dough.
    5
    Roll the dough.
  • Place rolled dough into a baking dish.

    Once rolled, place in a 9x13 dish. Continue until all rolls are completed.

    You can also make this into one roll. Follow the above directions, except for assembly. Separate and unroll the crescent rolls and place them side by side in a 9x13 baking dish. Put chicken mixture at one end of the roll and roll into a cake roll (like a log). Pour the soup mixture over the log and bake until brown and bubbly. The recipe can also be doubled and put both loaves in the 9x13 pan.
