Instructions
Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Prepare the Filling: In a large bowl, combine the shredded chicken, cream of chicken soup, mixed vegetables, cheddar cheese, salt, and pepper. Stir until everything is well mixed and creamy.
Roll Out the Dough: On a large baking sheet, roll out the crescent dough and press the seams together to form a solid rectangle.
Fill and Braid: Spoon the chicken mixture down the center of the dough, leaving space on the sides for braiding. Cut slits into the dough on each side of the filling, then fold them over the filling to create a braid.
Bake: Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the crescent dough is golden brown and fully cooked. Let it cool slightly before slicing and serving.
