Cheesy Chicken in a Crescent Roll

Cheesy Chicken Crescent Rolls

This Recipe is a family favorite.

In fact, the older my boys get, the more of these I have to make at each meal!

Now that they’re teenagers, they can eat more than I ever imagined.

We rarely have leftovers, because even with a filling recipe like this, it sometimes seems impossible to fill these teenagers up!

One of these, with a couple of vegetables on the side, is enough for Nick and me for dinner.

If we want one for lunch the next day, I put it in a container BEFORE I serve the kids.

I currently triple the recipe, so the boys can each eat 3 of these with vegetables, at dinner. 

Cheesy Chicken Crescent Roll Recipe

If you are doubling or tripling the recipe, you’ll want to heat the extra gravy on the stovetop or in an additional pan in the oven.

Too much gravy in the main pan will cause the crescent rolls to be soggy and they may not cook all the way through.

You can also easily interchange the cream of xx soup. 

I’ve made it with Cream of Mushroom, Cream of Celery, and Cream of Broccoli.

Use whichever flavor your family prefers!

My kids also enjoy this with cream cheese mixed in, jalapenos, sauteed onions, mushrooms, etc. 

Each time I make this, I vary things according to what I have on hand.

If I’m cooking for a crowd, I’ll buy the Crescent Rolls in bulk from Sam’s Club and prepare them all on a Cookie Sheet and warm the gravy in a saucepan. When it’s time to serve, I just slice the Crescent Rolls open and spoon some gravy down the middle.

Cheesy Chicken Crescent Rolls

Cheesy Chicken Crescent Rolls
Prep Time 5 minutes
Cook Time 20 minutes
Total Time 25 minutes

Ingredients

  • 2 chicken breasts cooked and shredded
  • 1 8 ct crescent rolls
  • 1 can cream of chicken soup
  • 1 c milk or buttermilk
  • 1 c shredded sharp cheddar cheese

Instructions

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

• Spray 9x13 pan with Pam.

• Lay out crescent rolls in 4 sections on waxed paper. (Keep the triangles together to form a rectangle). Use a small rolling pin if needed to close the seam.

• Put shredded chicken and cheese on rolls and roll them up (like a short burrito).

• Mix cream of chicken soup and milk heat on the stovetop in a small pan until fairly smooth. (add any leftover chicken or cheese to this).

• Pour between crescent rolls in pan. (Be careful to pour around, not on top or they will be mushy!).

• Bake in the oven for 15-20 minutes or until crescent rolls are cooked through and brown on top.

Notes

Can easily be doubled or tripled. You can heat extra gravy in a saucepan on the stove or a separate pan in the oven. If you add too much gravy to the main pan, the rolls will be soggy and may not cook through.

This meal pairs well with your favorite potatoes – mashed with gravy on top, roasted potatoes, or Au Gratin Potatoes. I sometimes serve with Roasted Green Beans, Broccoli, or Split Peas.

    I think that this is a great recipe for anyone who like crescent rolls , chicken and cheese!

  17. ladymagnolia99 (Judy Cox) says

    This really looks good!! I could even fix this for my great grandchildren and they would love it. As long as they see the cheese they will dig into it!!!

  18. Kasee Johnson says

    I’m glad you specified to pour the sauce AROUND the roll-ups. I was worried about mooshiness. This recipe sounds delicious, but I would have to make my own “Crescent Roll” dough because my kids complain about the strange film left in their mouths from the store-bought versions. Still sounds worth it! I will be adding this to my menu for next week!

  21. Sherry Compton says

    Looks good. We are a cheese loving family. I like how you use simple ingredients….things we have on hand. Thanks.

  22. Nancy says

    This recipe looks very easy.It also looks delicious. To make it more filling and a bit more nutritious, I’d add some chopped cooked veggies like onion, celery, broccoli, etc.

  23. Cindy Brooks says

    I always keep crescent rolls in the refrigerator for quick dinners like this. Thanks for the recipe!

  26. Amy Green says

    This dish will go over really big in my house. My two little sisters are cheese fanatics. I love having crescent rolls every chance I get. I like the pairing up with the green beans as a side.

  27. Cynthia R says

    I love any recipe that involves crescent rolls, one of them I do is a dessert one. This looks like a fabulous dinner.

  31. Betty C says

    I’m not sure I have a favorite cheesecake flavor because I love them all! But I do especially like a plain cheesecake with fancy toppings.

  32. PuffyBiggler says

    My favorite cheesecake flavor is plain New York cheesecake. Thanks for sharing!

  37. Paol Trenny says

    I love berry swirled cheesecake, coffee cheesecake, and chocolate cheesecake. Sorry I could not just pick one flavor.

  40. nenasinclair says

    This looks so good! A great easy after work recipe that my family would love! Also, lol, not sure what this post has to do with cheesecake, but my favorite cheesecake is Oreo!

  43. David Smith says

    This looks really easy to make and pretty tasty too. My fiance makes something like this already, but doesn’t use buttermilk. We will have to try it out.

  46. Rosie says

    this reminds me of a dish we used to have at school called chicken squares, that we still talk about, only this sounds even better with cheese!

  47. Jill in Iowa says

    Made these tonight; family loved them. I added red pepper and shallots that I sauteed in a little butter. Easy and delicious.

  49. Sherry Compton says

    My family loves how filling and comforting cream soup baked over chicken is. I hadn’t thought about topping it with crescent rolls, but it sounds wonderful. You could even add some peas and carrots to make it like a chicken pot pie casserole.

  50. mary gardner says

    This looks simple and quick to put together once you cook the chicken. Thanks!

  53. Ronald Gagnon says

    This looks more than delicious. You should come to my house and prepare it for me-I am a bachelor who is tired of the same old thing

  55. Sarah Hayes says

    Ive never seen this recipe before but my goodness it looks amazing! I def want to try it bc Iove chicken dishes like this and its super simple!

  59. Donna Cheatle says

    We’ve been on a crescent roll binge lately, lol…always searching for more recipes to use them. Will be trying this one, thanks!

  60. Mia Dentice Carey says

    COOL! I have everything I need for this in my frig……guess what’s for dinner tomorrow! =)

  61. ThePixieSprinkles says

    How do you cook the chicken in a slow cooker over night? I am new to crock pots and love using them! Due to medical issues, I cannot stand over the stove, so this really helps. If I can cook over night in the crock pot that would really help me out! How do I cook em overnight, and for how long is that? Thanks! =)

  63. Terri P says

    My favourite chicken recipe is crockpot boneless buffalo strips!

  70. Cori Westphal says

    Sounds good! I like to mix white rice and black beans with some taco seasoning. Then put the rice mixture, lettuce, cheese, and guacamole in a tortilla. delish!

  72. Jessica Snow says

    Wow, this looks yummy! I actually don’t make anything all that fancy and follow my mothers recipes.

  74. Karen says

    Sorry for the confusion, I double the recipe, which is why mine makes 8. I normally cook it in 2 pans when I double it so the gravy doesn’t make them mushy, but the night I took the photos, I needed my smaller pans for something else, so I had to use a larger pan:/

  75. Joyce says

    I tried making these but I found the directions hard to follow. For example your picture looked like you had about 8 pieces but mine only came out to four. I didn’t quite understand how you divided the cresent rolls.

  76. Stephanie Hirsch says

    I don’t have a favorite recipe, but I do LOVE making things all on my own. No recipe at all!

  77. Alicia K says

    my favorite recipe is easy; take chicken, cover it in salsa, sprinkle it with crushed tortilla chips, and then cheese. Bake. Tada!

  78. Sandy VanHoey says

    Thanks for including a print button ion this. Many times, bloggers have not and it makes it much more difficult to get the recipe. This looks SO great! We WILL give it a try…thanks!

  81. LaProfesoraFrida says

    Yum! These look fantastic! And easy to make! Thanks for sharing the recipe!
    My fave– chocolate chip orange zuchini bread! yumm! 🙂

  82. Nena Sinclair says

    These look awesome! I bought a bunch of frozen boneless chicken and was looking for something different to make with it, this is it! Thanks for the recipe!

  86. Erin @ Making Memories says

    Oh my heck! This sounds delicious! I bookmarked it and can’t wait to make it. Thanks!

  87. Kenyatta Rodriguez says

    Thank you for this easy delicious recipe! I will definitely try this one on my oh so finicky boys. 🙂
