Instructions

How to Make Savory Herb Crescent Turkey

  • Preheat Oven: Set your oven to 375°F (190°C) to prepare for baking your savory delight.
  • Sauté Onions and Garlic: In a skillet, heat a splash of olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped onions and sauté until they become translucent. Then, stir in minced garlic until it's fragrant—about 1-2 minutes.
  • Cook Ground Turkey: Add ground turkey, fresh herbs, salt, and pepper to the skillet. Cook until browned and no longer pink, breaking it up into small pieces.
  • Add Cheese: Once cooked, sprinkle in the shredded cheddar cheese and mix well until fully melted and combined with the turkey mixture.
  • Assemble with Crescent Rolls: Roll out the crescent dough, spoon turkey filling onto each triangle, and roll them up, enclosing the filling completely.
  • Bake: Place the assembled crescents in your oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, until golden brown and puffed up.

Notes

Optional: Drizzle warm herb-infused olive oil over the baked crescents for an extra layer of flavor.
