This Chicken and Spinach Crescent Ring Delight is a simple yet flavorful dish perfect for any occasion. With a creamy filling and a golden crust, it's sure to be a hit.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Preheating ensures even cooking and a golden crust.
Arrange the crescent roll triangles on a baking sheet in a circular pattern, with the wide ends overlapping in the center to form a ring.
Ensure the points of the triangles are evenly spaced for a neat appearance.
In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, garlic powder, smoked paprika, and shredded cheddar cheese until well blended.
Using softened cream cheese makes mixing easier and ensures a smooth filling.
Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the wide ends of the crescent rolls.
Use a spatula to evenly distribute the filling for consistent flavor.
Top the cream cheese mixture with fresh spinach leaves and grilled chicken pieces.
Arrange the spinach and chicken evenly for balanced bites.
Fold the pointed ends of the crescent rolls over the filling and tuck them under the wide ends to secure the ring.
Press gently to seal the edges and prevent filling from leaking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 14-16 minutes, or until the crescent rolls are golden brown.
Check the ring halfway through baking to ensure even browning.
Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
Allowing the ring to cool slightly makes slicing easier and prevents burns.
