Chicken Alfredo Roll Ups
Ingredients
Filling
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 boneless (skinless) chicken breast
- 1 8-ounce package cream cheese, at room temperature
- 1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan
- 2 tablespoons chopped chives
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper (to taste)
- 1 8-ounce tube crescent rolls
- 1/2 cup Italian style bread crumbs
Cheese sauce
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup milk
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper (to taste)
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese (or more, to taste)
Instructions
- 1
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat; set aside.
- 2
Heat olive oil in a medium skillet over medium high heat.
- 3
Season chicken breasts with salt and pepper, to taste. Add to skillet and cook, flipping once, until cooked through, about 3-4 minutes per side. Let cool before shredding.
- 4
In a large bowl, combine chicken, cream cheese, Parmesan, chives, garlic powder, salt and pepper, to taste.
- 5
Remove rolls from the can, separating them into eight triangles. Top each triangle with a heaping tablespoon of the chicken mixture.

Starting with the wide end, roll up each triangle, tucking the ends underneath, and dredge in bread crumbs, pressing to coat. Place seam-side down onto the prepared baking sheet and bake until golden brown, about 10-12 minutes.

To make the cheese sauce, melt butter in a small saucepan over medium high heat. Whisk in flour until lightly browned, about 1 minute. Gradually whisk in milk, and cook, whisking constantly, until slightly thickened, about 3-4 minutes; season with salt and pepper, to taste. Stir in cheese, a handful at a time, until smooth, about 1-2 minutes.

Serve crescent rolls immediately, drizzled with cheese sauce.
