Ingredients

1 can (8 oz) refrigerated crescent dough
1 cup cooked chicken, shredded
1 cup marinara sauce
1/2 cup diced onion
1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
Salt and pepper to taste

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Prepare the Crescent Dough: Unroll the crescent dough and separate it into triangles. Press each triangle into the bottom and up the sides of a greased muffin tin.
Make the Filling: In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add diced onion and sauté until soft. Stir in the shredded chicken, marinara sauce, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Cook for 5 minutes until heated through.
Fill the Cups: Spoon the chicken filling into each crescent cup and top with shredded mozzarella cheese.
Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the crescent dough is golden brown and the cheese is melted.
Serve: Allow to cool slightly before removing from the muffin tin. Garnish with fresh basil if desired, and serve warm.
