Ingredients
- 3 cups cooked, shredded chicken, see notes below
- ½ cup buffalo sauce
- ½ cup carrots, shredded
- ¼ cup green onions, diced
- 1 cup pepper jack cheese, shredded
- 16 ounces crescent roll dough, two 8 count cans
Serving Options
- ½ cup ranch dressing
- ½ cup blue cheese dressing
- ½ cup buffalo sauce
Instructions
- Pre-heat the oven to 375°F.
- Combine the cooked, shredded chicken and buffalo sauce in a large bowl. Add the carrots, green onions and pepper jack cheese. Stir to combine and set aside.
- To form the crescent ring, place a small water glass in the middle of a baking sheet.
- Unroll the crescent dough and separate into 16 triangles.
- Arrange the unrolled crescent rolls around the glass with the large flat ends of the crescent rolls overlapping in the center up against the glass.
- Spoon the buffalo chicken mixture onto the large overlapping ends of the crescent roll dough.
- Slowly remove the water glass from the middle, so that all of the buffalo chicken mixture stays on the crescent rolls and does not fall into the opening in the center.
- Wrap the crescent roll dough up and over the buffalo chicken filling and tuck the dough under the chicken in the middle.
- Place the chicken ring in the oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the crescent rolls are golden brown.
- Remove from the oven and serve with blue cheese, ranch dressing or additional buffalo sauce on the side for dipping.
Notes
- For the cooked chicken, this can be pulled from a rotisserie chicken, or you can use this Instant Pot shredded chicken recipe, or this slow cooker shredded chicken recipe.
- The buffalo chicken filling can be made up to 2 days in advance.
- Leftover buffalo chicken ring will stay good in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
- I recommend reheating the buffalo chicken ring in the oven, if possible, to keep the crescent rolls from getting soggy. To reheat, place slices of the crescent ring on a baking sheet and into a 400°F oven for 10 minutes.
