Instructions
Creating Cozy Chicken Pillows With Creamy Parmesan Sauce is simple if you follow these easy steps:
1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper.
2. Prepare Filling: In a large bowl, combine shredded chicken, cream cheese, mozzarella cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.
3. Roll Out Dough: Open the package of crescent roll dough and unroll it into triangles.
4. Fill Dough: Place 2-3 tablespoons of the chicken filling on the wider end of each triangle.
5. Seal Pillows: Carefully fold the dough over the filling to create a pocket. Pinch the edges to seal.
6. Arrange on Sheet: Place the filled pillows on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they do not touch.
7. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the dough is golden brown.
8. Prepare Sauce: While the pillows are baking, heat olive oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Add heavy cream and bring to a simmer. Stir in grated Parmesan cheese until melted and smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
9. Serve: Once the pillows are baked, remove them from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving.
10. Drizzle Sauce: Serve the chicken pillows drizzled with the creamy Parmesan sauce. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired.
