A delightful casserole dish combining tender chicken, creamy cheese, and flaky crescent rolls, perfect for a comforting family meal.
Preheat your oven to 350°F and butter a casserole dish.
Using a buttered dish prevents sticking and adds flavor to the crust.
In a saucepan, combine the half and half, shredded cheddar cheese, and condensed cream of chicken soup. Heat gently until the cheese melts, stirring occasionally.
Avoid boiling the sauce to maintain a smooth texture.
In a mixing bowl, blend the softened cream cheese and butter until smooth. Mix in the garlic powder, chopped onion, shredded chicken, and mayonnaise until well combined.
Ensure the cream cheese is softened for easier mixing.
Unroll the crescent rolls and place a spoonful of the chicken mixture onto each triangle. Roll them up starting from the wider end.
Seal the edges of the rolls to keep the filling inside during baking.
Pour a small amount of the cheese sauce into the bottom of the casserole dish. Arrange the filled crescent rolls seam-side down in the dish. Pour the remaining cheese sauce over the rolls and sprinkle with additional shredded cheese if desired.
Adding extra cheese on top creates a golden crust.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 30 minutes, or until the rolls are golden and the sauce is bubbly.
Check the casserole halfway through to ensure even baking.
Let the casserole cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your cheesy chicken crescent bake!
Allowing the dish to cool helps the flavors settle and makes serving easier.
