2 packages of dinner rolls (12 count each) Soft buns that hold everything together perfectly.

3 tablespoons melted unsalted butter Used for brushing the tops to get that golden finish.

Instructions

This step ensures every piece is packed with flavor, and you can tweak it for dietary preferences, like using a milder sauce if needed.
2-Next: slice the dinner rolls horizontally without separating them, creating top and bottom layers, then place the bottoms cut side up in your prepared baking dish. Sprinkle half the shredded Monterey jack cheese over them, spread the chicken mixture evenly, and top with the remaining cheese. For the final touch, add the roll tops, brush them with the melted unsalted butter mixed with Italian seasoning, and pop it in the oven.
3-Bake for 10 to 15 minutes until the cheese melts and the tops turn golden brown. Once done, serve them warm and enjoy the gooey, spicy goodness. If youβre planning ahead, you can assemble these up to 24 hours in advance, wrap them, and refrigerate before baking for a quick meal later.
