Fritter Ingredients
- 1 package crescent roll dough
- 1/2 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or mozzarella)
- 1/4 cup green onions, chopped
- 1/4 cup ranch dressing
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure easy cleanup.
- Prepare Dough: Unroll the crescent roll dough and carefully separate it into individual triangles, which will serve as the base for your fritters.
- Add Fillings: Sprinkle a small amount of shredded cheese and chopped green onions evenly onto each triangle to add flavor and texture.
- Roll Up: Starting from the wider end of each triangle, roll the dough tightly to encase the fillings and place each roll seam side down on the prepared baking sheet.
- Top Rolls: Brush each roll generously with ranch dressing to add moisture and tanginess, then sprinkle sesame seeds on top if desired for extra crunch and a nutty flavor.
- Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes or until the rolls are golden brown and cooked through, ensuring a crispy exterior and melted interior.
- Serve: Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly before serving warm. Enjoy your delightful dill pickle chicken fritters as a snack or appetizer!
Notes
- You can substitute ranch dressing with your favorite creamy dip or sauce.
- For a spicier kick, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or chopped jalapeños to the cheese mixture.
- These fritters are best served fresh out of the oven but can be reheated in a toaster oven to maintain crispiness.
- To make it vegetarian, omit chicken or add finely chopped mushrooms or spinach inside.
- Sesame seeds are optional but add a nice crunch and flavor contrast.
