Ingredients
- 2 cups cooked chicken breast (shredded or diced)
- 1 cup cooked ham (chopped)
- 1 cup shredded Swiss cheese (or mozzarella as an alternative)
- 1/3 cup mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 cans refrigerated crescent roll dough
- 1 egg (beaten, for egg wash)
- Optional: fresh parsley for garnish
Step-by-Step Method
1. Prepare the Filling
In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, chopped ham, and cheese. Add the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, and black pepper. Mix everything thoroughly until the filling is creamy and evenly coated.
This mixture is the heart of the dish, so make sure all ingredients are well distributed for balanced flavor in every bite.
2. Arrange the Crescent Dough
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
On a large baking tray lined with parchment paper, arrange the crescent dough triangles in a circular pattern:
- Place the wide ends of the triangles toward the center
- Let the pointed ends face outward, forming a sun-like shape
The dough pieces should slightly overlap at the base to create a solid ring foundation.
