    Step 2

    While the chicken is baking, add cream cheese, milk, and diced onion to a pot. Cook over medium heat, stirring until it becomes a sauce and the cream cheese fully melts

    When the chicken is done, turn the oven down to 350F°. Shred the chicken with two forks. Mix the chicken with the sauce

    Step 4

    Place a spoonful of the mixture onto an unrolled crescent roll. Fold up the roll, sealing the sides so no mixture pokes out

    Brush the melted butter on top of the closed rolls and sprinkle bread crumbs on top

    Bake for 20-25 minutes. The tops should be golden brown when you pull the rolls out

Notes from the cook

You can substitute chicken thighs for the breasts. I use bone-in. Bake them at 425F° for 40 minutes.
