Ingredients
Scale
1 (8 ounce) package refrigerated crescent roll dough
2 cups cooked, shredded chicken
1 (10.5 ounce) can condensed cream of chicken soup
1/2 cup milk
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1/2 cup sour cream
1/4 cup chopped onion
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Lightly grease a 9×13 inch baking dish.
Unroll the crescent roll dough and press it into the bottom of the prepared baking dish, sealing any perforations. Bake the crust for 8 minutes. Remove from the oven.
While the crust bakes, mix the shredded chicken, cream of chicken soup, milk, sour cream, chopped onion, garlic powder, and black pepper in a medium bowl. Stir until well combined.
Spread the chicken mixture evenly over the partially baked crust.
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the top of the filling.
Return the casserole to the oven and bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the edges are lightly browned.
Let the casserole rest for 5 minutes before cutting and serving.
Notes
To prevent a soggy bottom crust, ensure you pre-bake the dough for the specified time before adding the filling.
You can substitute cream of mushroom soup for cream of chicken soup if desired.
For added vegetables, mix in 1 cup of frozen peas and carrots with the chicken mixture.
