Men Can Cook Chef Level: Featherweight
Yields 4 Stuffed Croissants
Intro
Chicken Stuffed Croissants are a fun recipe that I think can be seasoned or filled in various fun ways. In this example, I used chicken, bacon, ranch, & Cajun season to stuff the croissant. However, I think you could change up seasonings and add different sauces to make it your own. I’m definitely going to make different stuffing for this one in the coming month. A couple of quick ideas is a hot sauce to make buffalo chicken stuffing or a BBQ sauce with some Ham bits instead of bacon. The world is yours, so get creative and let me know if you find a fun combo!

Ingredients
- 1 can of Croissants rolls
- 1 lb. of Ground Chicken
- ½ lb. of Bacon
- 8oz Cream Cheese
- 2 Tsp Butter
- 1 Tbsp. Seasoning (I used Cajun)
- ¼ Cup of Ranch Dressing
Directions
- In a skillet over medium heat cook up your Ground Chicken. (I cooked the meat in a little bacon grease)
- Set the cooked chicken in a medium bowl and let cool for at least 10 minutes.
- While the chicken cools line your sheet pan with parchment paper and preheat your oven to 350 F.
- Now cube up and slice your softened butter and cream cheese. Add it to the bowl of chicken.
- Sprinkle the bacon bits over the top of the butter and cheese.
- Add your seasoning and your ranch dressing on top of the bacon.
- Mix everything up with a large spoon. You can use the back of the spoon to smash up the cubes of cheese into the chicken and bacon meat.
- Open the Croissant can there are 8 pieces, but you want just to separate them into 4 pieces and press the seam together. (Refer to the picture to fully understand)
- Now spoon 3 to 4 spoonfuls of the chicken mixture into the middle of each croissant.
- Bring the corners over the mixtures and press them together.
- Once all 4 are completed place them in the oven for 18 to 20 minutes checking as it goes to see when the croissants have a great brown crust.
- Remove from oven, plate, and enjoy a filling meal!
