Description
Tender chicken wrapped in buttery crescent dough, served with a rich creamy Parmesan sauce.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 package refrigerated crescent roll dough
- 1 cup cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- 1/2 cup heavy cream

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Trim excess fat from the chicken and slice into 4 equal pieces. Flatten each piece slightly to fit on a crescent triangle.
- In a mixing bowl, combine cream cheese, Parmesan, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Stir until smooth.
- Place a piece of chicken on the wide end of a crescents triangle, add cheese mixture, and roll up. Seal ends and place seam-side down on a lined baking sheet.
- Bake for 15–20 minutes until golden brown and chicken reaches 165°F (74°C).
- While baking, heat heavy cream in a saucepan, add remaining Parmesan, and stir until melted and smooth. Drizzle over baked pillows and garnish with parsley before serving.
