Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, softened cream cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, dried parsley, salt, black pepper, and melted butter until well blended.
- Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate it into triangles, flattening each triangle slightly.
- Spoon a generous amount of the chicken filling onto the wide end of each triangle, fold the sides over, and roll it up to create a secure envelope.
- Arrange the filled pillows on the baking sheet, brush with egg wash, and sprinkle with panko breadcrumbs if desired.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown and puffed.
- While baking, melt butter in a saucepan, whisk in flour, and gradually add milk and cream, stirring until thickened. Add Parmesan, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
- Serve the baked Chicken Pillows warm, drizzled with the creamy Parmesan sauce.

Notes
Ensure cream cheese is at room temperature for a smooth filling; avoid overfilling pillows to prevent bursts during baking. Brush with egg wash for a golden finish.
