Calories: 191kcal
- 2 1/2 cups cooked chicken, shredded or chopped
- 1 cup red onion, chopped
- 1 cup BBQ sauce
- 1/2 tsp. garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp. Italian seasoning
- 2 cans crescent dough (16 pieces total)
- 1 cup mozzarella cheese (Monterey Jack or Provolone works, too)
- OPTIONAL: dipping sauce like Ranch or Chipotle Mayo.
Preheat oven to 375° and lightly grease a baking sheet. Place a small bowl in the center.
In medium bowl, mix together the chicken, onion, and BBQ sauce.
Open the crescent rolls and cut triangles apart. Arrange triangles around bowl overlapping and with the sharpest angle pointing out. Remove the bowl.
Place half the cheese evenly around the circle where the dough overlaps. Spread the chicken mixture over the cheese, then sprinkle the rest of the cheese over the chicken mixture.
Fold the dough tips over the filling (towards the center) and tuck them underneath to create a wreath shape. Bake for 25 minutes, or until golden brown.
Let it cool slightly, then place on a platter. Slice or pull apart for serving. Place optional dipping sauce in the bowl and place the bowl back in the center. Enjoy!
