- 1 can crescent roll dough
- 1 cup cooked chicken, shredded

- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a baking sheet with cooking spray.

- Place a generous spoonful of the chicken mixture at the wider end of each triangle.
- Carefully roll the triangle from the wide end to the pointed end, enclosing the filling as you go. Pinch the edges to seal.
- Place the stuffed rolls on the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between them for expansion.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown and flaky.
