Delicious BBQ Chicken Croissants

These BBQ Chicken Stuffed Croissants feature succulent BBQ chicken combined with cheese, all embraced by buttery, flaky croissant dough. The recipe is quick to prepare and takes around 30 minutes to serve 4 people.

Ingredients

2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
1 cup BBQ sauce (your choice)
1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or mozzarella recommended)
1 package refrigerated crescent roll dough
1 tablespoon olive oil
Salt and pepper to taste
Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)

Instructions

Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven according to the croissant dough package instructions.
Prepare Filling: In a bowl, combine shredded chicken, BBQ sauce, and cheese. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Roll Croissants: Unroll the crescent roll dough onto a clean surface. Separate the triangles and place a generous spoonful of the BBQ chicken mixture at the wider end of each triangle.

Shape Croissants: Roll the dough from the wide end to the tip, ensuring the filling stays inside. Place the rolled croissants on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Bake: Brush the tops of the croissants with olive oil, then bake in the preheated oven for the time specified on the dough package, usually about 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown.
Serve: Remove from the oven and let cool slightly. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired, and serve warm.
