Ingredients
- 1 can refrigerated crescent rolls
- 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
- 1/2 cup ranch dressing
- 1 cup cooked bacon, crumbled
- 1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
- 1/4 cup green onions, sliced
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
- In a medium mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, ranch dressing, crumbled bacon, shredded cheddar cheese, and sliced green onions. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are evenly distributed.
- Open the can of crescent rolls and unroll the dough. Separate the triangles, keeping them intact.
- Arrange the crescent roll triangles on the baking sheet in a circular pattern, with the wide ends pointing inward and slightly overlapping, forming a ring. The points of the triangles should extend beyond the ring's center.
- Spoon the chicken mixture evenly around the inner circle of the dough ring, leaving a small border near the center.
- Carefully fold the pointed ends of the crescent roll triangles over the filling, tucking and pressing them into the center to create a closed ring.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the crescent roll dough is golden brown and the filling is heated through.
- Remove from the oven and let cool for 2-3 minutes before slicing.
- Slice into wedges and serve warm as a delicious appetizer or main dish.
Tips
- For maximum flavor, use rotisserie chicken or freshly grilled chicken that's been seasoned well.
- Ensure your bacon is crispy before crumbling to add a delightful crunch to the filling.
- Let the ring cool for a few minutes after baking to allow the filling to set and make slicing easier.
- For a lighter version, use low-fat ranch dressing and turkey bacon.
- Add a sprinkle of extra cheese on top during the last 2 minutes of baking for a golden, melted finish.
- Serve with additional ranch dressing on the side for dipping.
- Prep ingredients in advance to make assembly quick and easy.
