These Chicken Parmesan Pinwheels are a delicious way to enjoy those beloved Italian flavors without a lot of effort. Festive enough for a Christmas appetizer and easy enough for a weeknight dinner.

Chicken Parmesan Roll Ups

Who doesn’t love chicken parmesan? It’s a classic dish with breaded chicken, cheese and tomato sauce usually served over pasta. It’s delicious, but it can take quite a bit of effort to prepare. That’s why these Chicken Parmesan Pinwheels are so perfect! Not only are they a great, simple weeknight dinner option, but they make a great party appetizer too.

Chicken Parmesan Baked Roll-Ups

How to make Chicken Parmesan Pinwheels

  1. Like our other baked pinwheel recipes, these Chicken Parmesan Roll Ups start with a sheet of dough. You can use either crescent dough or pizza dough from the refrigerator section of your grocery store.
  2. Top the dough with shredded chicken and tomato sauce, Mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses and Italian seasoning. Then carefully roll it up, starting with the longest side. You want to roll as tight as possible without squishing out the filling.
  3. Once it’s all nice and rolled up you can slice and bake right away but I recommend refrigerating for at least 30 minutes to make the log easier to slice. Use a sharp, serrated knife when you’re ready to cut the log into pinwheels shapes.
  4. Bake on a parchment or foil lined cookie sheet to keep the pinwheels from sticking. Garnish with fresh parsley or basil and you’re ready to serve!

Easy Chicken Parmesan Roll-Ups

Here are some more baked pinwheel recipe we love:

  • Spinach & Artichoke Dip Pinwheels – The same flavors of the classic dip, rolled in dough and baked.
  • Bacon, Cheddar & Jalapeno Pinwheels – Jalapeno Poppers in roll up form.
  • Pizza Pinwheels – Customize to your favorite pizza toppings, these make a delicious after school snack.
  • Cheddar Bacon Ranch Pinwheels – Just 3 ingredient: cheese, bacon, and bread. YUM!
  • Ham and Cheese Pinwheels – Who doesn’t love a good hot ham and cheese sandwich? Make them the easy way and roll them up!
