Ingredients

The following ingredients have 6 Servings
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
  • 1 cup thinly sliced red onion (1/4th of a red onion)
  • 2 cups shredded chicken
  • ¼ cup bbq sauce (plus more for dipping)
  • ¼ cup fresh chopped cilantro (plus more for garnish)
  • 1 roll crescent roll dough sheet
  • 1 ½ cups shredded colby jack cheese

Instruction

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F. In a medium skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the onions and cook until softened, 5-8 minutes.
  • Add the chicken, bbq sauce, and cilantro to the pan and mix to combine. Set aside.
  • Well grease 8 sections of a muffin tin with baking spray, set aside. Roll out the crescent dough on a clean work surface and cut it into 8 even sections. Gently press each piece of the dough into one of the greased sections of the muffin tin, repeat with all the pieces.
  • Taking 1/2 cup of the cheese, evenly distribute it to the bottom of each of the cups.
  • Add the chicken mixture on top of the cheese.
  • Top with another ½ cup of the cheese.
  • Taking the corners of the crescent dough, fold them over the top so it forms a little cup.
  • Top each one with the remaining cheese. Bake for 15 minutes or until golden brown.
  • Garnish with optional cilantro and serve with extra bbq sauce for dipping.
