Prep Time: 20 mins
Cook Time: 25 mins
Total Time: 45 mins
Cuisine: American
Serves: 6 servings

Ingredients

  1. 1 lb chicken breast, diced
  2. 1 cup spinach, chopped
  3. 1 cup cream cheese
  4. 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  5. 1 tsp garlic powder
  6. 1 tsp onion powder
  7. Salt and pepper to taste
  8. 1 package crescent roll dough

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with cooking spray.
  2. In a medium mixing bowl, combine cream cheese, chopped spinach, shredded cheddar cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are well incorporated.
  3. Season the diced chicken breast with additional salt and pepper. In a skillet over medium-high heat, cook the chicken until it is no longer pink in the center and lightly golden, about 5-6 minutes.
  4. Allow the cooked chicken to cool slightly for 3-4 minutes. Fold the cooked chicken into the cream cheese and spinach mixture.
  5. Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate into individual triangles. Stretch each triangle slightly to increase its size.
  6. Place a generous spoonful of the chicken and spinach mixture in the center of each crescent dough triangle.
  7. Carefully fold the edges of the dough around the filling, pinching and sealing the edges to create a complete seal and prevent leaking.
  8. Place the filled dough balls seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each bomb.
  9. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the dough is golden brown and crispy.
  10. Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes before serving. The filling will be hot, so allow them to rest briefly.
  11. Serve warm and enjoy these delicious Spinach Dip Chicken Bombs as an appetizer or main dish.

Tips

  1. Prep Ahead: To save time, you can prepare the spinach and cream cheese mixture a day in advance. Just store it in the fridge until you're ready to assemble the bombs.
  2. Customize Your Filling: Feel free to add your favorite ingredients! Sun-dried tomatoes, artichokes, or even crumbled bacon can elevate the flavor even more.
  3. Don’t Rush the Cooling: Allow the cooked chicken to cool slightly before mixing it with the cream cheese mixture. This prevents the cream cheese from melting too much and helps maintain the filling’s texture.
  4. Seal It Well: Make sure to pinch the edges of the crescent dough tightly to avoid any filling leakage during baking.
  5. Serve with Dipping Sauce: Pair these bombs with a side of ranch dressing or marinara sauce for an extra burst of flavor!
  6. Watch the Oven: Keep an eye on the baking time, as ovens can vary. You want them golden brown and crispy, so check a couple of minutes before the timer goes off.Enjoy making these delicious Spinach Dip Chicken Bombs, and watch them disappear in no time!
