But we&#8217;ll let you in on a secret: This is one of the simplest <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/awesome-ideas-appetizer-recipes\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/awesome-ideas-appetizer-recipes\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener noreferrer\">appetizer recipes<\/a> ever. Since the chicken puffs start with a tube of crescent rolls, there&#8217;s no finicky pastry to prepare. Using pre-cooked or leftover chicken cuts down on prep time, too.<\/p>\n<p>Our chicken puff recipe is easy to adapt to your tastes by adding spices, herbs or cheese (or all three). Make this puffs recipe once, and you&#8217;ll want keep it in your back pocket forever.<\/p>\n<h2>Ingredients for Chicken Puffs<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Cream cheese:<\/strong> Cream cheese binds the chicken together and melts into a creamy, gooey filling.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Garlic powder:<\/strong> Garlic adds snappy flavor, though there&#8217;s room to play with other seasonings, too.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Shredded chicken:<\/strong> This recipe calls for cooked chicken, so it&#8217;s a great way to use up leftovers\u2014whether they&#8217;re from rotisserie, baked, boiled or grilled chicken. Just shred the meat or cut it into thin strips.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Crescent rolls:<\/strong> Use refrigerated <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/best-crescent-rolls\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/best-crescent-rolls\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">crescent rolls<\/a> to help these puffs come together quickly.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Directions<\/h2>\n<h3>Step 1: Make the filling<\/h3>\n<p>Preheat the oven to 375\u00b0F. In a small bowl, beat the cream cheese and garlic powder until smooth. Stir in the chicken.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 2: Shape the puffs<\/h3>\n<p>Unroll the tube of crescent dough and separate the sheet into 16 triangles. Cut each in half lengthwise, forming two triangles. Place a teaspoon of chicken mixture in the center. Fold the short side over the filling, then press the sides to seal and roll up.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 3: Bake until golden<\/h3>\n<p>Place the puffs an inch apart on greased baking sheets. Bake them until they&#8217;re golden brown, 12 to 14 minutes. Set out a plate of warm chicken puffs as a party appetizer. Your guests will clear out the crescents in no time flat!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-2094026 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Chicken-Puffs_TOHX25_34911_MD_P2_12_10_3b.jpg?fit=700%2C1024\" alt=\"Chicken Puffs \" width=\"700\" height=\"1024\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">MARK DERSE FOR TASTE OF HOME<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Recipe Variations<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Season liberally:<\/strong> Punch up the filling with minced herbs (think parsley, chives, cilantro or dill) or poultry seasoning, seasoned salt, cayenne pepper, paprika, pepper flakes or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/homemade-cajun-seasoning\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/homemade-cajun-seasoning\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Cajun seasoning<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Add vegetables:<\/strong> Stir minced mushrooms, celery, roasted red peppers or garlic into the chicken and cheese mixture. Don&#8217;t use overly hard vegetables (like potatoes or carrots) or anything too wet (raw onions).<\/li>\n<li><strong>Add more cheese:<\/strong> I like shredded cheddar, Gouda, Gruyere, feta or goat cheese.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Play with the shape:<\/strong> No need to stick with a crescent shape. You can roll the pastry into a ball or a triangle, too.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Garnish with seeds:<\/strong> Before baking, brush the rolls with a beaten egg and sprinkle with sesame seeds or poppy seeds.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>How to Store Chicken Puffs<\/h2>\n<p>Chicken puffs are best enjoyed shortly after baking, or on the day they&#8217;re made. The filling will turn the crescent rolls soggy as they sit. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator.<\/p>\n<h3>How long do chicken puffs last?<\/h3>\n<p>Chicken puffs will keep for up to two days in the fridge. They may get a bit soggy as they sit, but will still taste good. After two days they will likely be too soggy to be enjoyable.<\/p>\n<h3>Can you make chicken puffs ahead of time?<\/h3>\n<p>Unlike some other\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/make-ahead-potluck-recipes\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/make-ahead-potluck-recipes\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">potluck appetizers<\/a>, we don&#8217;t recommend making chicken puffs ahead of time, as the pastry will get soggy after a few hours of sitting. However, you may prepare the filling ahead of time. Start with Step 1 as directed, then cover and refrigerate the chicken mixture for up to two days before you make the recipe.<\/p>\n<h3>How do you reheat chicken puffs?<\/h3>\n<p>Reheat chicken puffs in the oven to re-crisp the pastry. You can reheat them in the microwave, but the rolls will become quite soft.<\/p>\n<h2>Chicken Puffs Tips<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-2094025 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Chicken-Puffs_TOHX25_34911_MD_P2_12_10_2b.jpg?fit=700%2C1024\" alt=\"Chicken Puffs placed on a board\" width=\"700\" height=\"1024\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">MARK DERSE FOR TASTE OF HOME<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Can you use homemade crescent roll dough for chicken puffs?<\/h3>\n<p>If you want to go the extra mile, you can definitely use <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/how-to-make-crescent-rolls\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/how-to-make-crescent-rolls\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">homemade crescent roll dough<\/a>! Part of what we love about this recipe is its simplicity, but if you enjoy making pastry dough from scratch, go for it.<\/p>\n<h3>What can you serve with chicken puffs?<\/h3>\n<p>Chicken puffs make a great appetizer, especially for parties, as they look beautiful on a platter.
