How long will this chicken alfredo crescent ring stay fresh?
In an airtight container in the refrigerator, this crescent ring will stay fresh for up to 3 days. To reheat it, heat it back in the oven until it’s warmed through.
However, if you’re making this for a party or potluck, it’s best when served within the first hour of baking.
What kind of chicken should I use?
I’ve found that the easiest way to prepare chicken for this recipe is to either shred a rotisserie chicken or chop up some cooked chicken breasts. It’s a delicious appetizer either way!
What can I serve as a dip for this appetizer?
A serving of this crescent ring all by itself is delicious. However, it’s even better when served with a bowl of alfredo or marinara sauce for dipping!
Recipe Tips and Notes
- Don’t eat pork? That’s okay! You can use turkey bacon in place of pork bacon.
- If you have a circular baking stone to place in the center of the ring, that works very well. However, it’s not necessary to still have a perfect ring.
- Avoid using jumbo crescent rolls, as they won’t work well with this recipe. Regular sized crescent rolls are all you need.
This creamy, cheesy, and crescent wrapped chicken alfredo is one of my favorite easy appetizers to make before a party.
