Directions
-
Preheat oven to 375&# 194;°F (190ðC). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
-
Unroll the crescent dough and seal the perforations to form a large rectangle, or keep as individual triangles depending on desired serving size.
-
In a mixing bowl, combine the chopped chicken, minced green onions, dried rosemary, and grated Parmesan cheese.
-
Divide the chicken mixture evenly among the dough portions. Top each portion with the cubed Brie cheese.
-
Fold the dough over the filling, pressing the edges firmly to seal. Ensure no cheese or chicken is exposed.
-
Place the pastries on the prepared baking sheet. Brush the tops generously with the beaten egg.
-
Bake for 18 to 20 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and the filling is hot and bubbly.
-
Remove from oven and let cool for 5 minutes before serving to allow the cheese to set slightly.

Note
For a gluten-free option, use a gluten-free puff pastry sheet instead of crescent rolls.
You can substitute the Brie with Camembert or Goat Cheese for a tangier flavor profile.
Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in a 350ðF oven for 10 minutes to restore crispness.
If the Brie has a strong rind, you may choose to leave it on for a more robust flavor, though removing it ensures a smoother texture.
