Ingredients
8 servings
- •1 pound skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
- •1 ½ cups shredded Monterey Jack cheese
- •1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
- •1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
- •salt and pepper to taste
- •1 (8 ounce) package refrigerated crescent roll dough
- •2 tablespoons melted butter, or as needed
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a baking sheet.
- Place chicken breasts into a large pot and cover with salted water by several inches; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium and simmer until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 15 to 20 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Remove chicken from water and cool. Shred chicken using two forks.
- Thoroughly mix Monterey Jack cheese, Cheddar cheese, cream cheese, salt, and pepper together in a bowl. Stir chicken into cheese mixture.
- Separate crescent roll dough and lay each piece flat on a work surface. Spread chicken-cheese mixture onto each piece of dough and roll dough into crescent roll shapes. Place rolls on prepared baking sheet and brush with melted butter.
- Bake in the preheated oven until cheese is melted and rolls are golden, 20 to 25 minutes.
