Ingredients

  • For the Casserole:
    • 2 (8 oz) cans Pillsbury Refrigerated Crescent Dinner Rolls
    • 1 (10 3/4 oz) can cream of chicken soup, undiluted
    • 3/4 cup grated cheddar cheese
    • 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
  • For the Filling:
    • 4 oz cream cheese (at room temperature)
    • 4 tbsp butter (at room temperature)
    • 1 tsp garlic powder
    • 1/3 cup onion, finely chopped
    • 2 large cooked chicken breasts, finely chopped (about 2 cups)
    • ½ cup finely grated cheddar cheese
    • 1/2 tsp seasoning salt
    • 1/2 tsp ground black pepper
    • 2-4 tbsp heavy whipping cream (if needed for consistency)
    • 1-2 cups grated cheddar cheese (for topping)

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with butter.
  2. Make the Sauce: In a small pot over medium heat, combine the cream of chicken soup, ¾ cup of cheddar cheese, and heavy whipping cream. Stir until the cheese melts, then remove from heat.
  3. Prepare the Filling: In a mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, butter, and garlic powder using a fork. Add the chopped chicken, onion, heavy cream, seasoning salt, black pepper, and ½ cup of cheddar cheese. Mix well until combined.
  4. Assemble the Rolls: Unroll the crescent rolls. Place 1 tablespoon of the chicken mixture on the larger end of each roll, then roll them up starting from that end.
  5. Layer in Baking Dish: Spread some of the cream of chicken sauce on the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Arrange the rolled crescent rolls in the dish, then pour more sauce over the top. Finish with a sprinkle of grated cheddar cheese.
  6. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, or until golden brown and bubbly.
