Ingredients
2 small chicken breasts
1 Italian-style loaf
2 tablespoons poultry seasoning (or salt, pepper, garlic powder)
1 ½ sticks unsalted butter (divided)
2 tablespoons minced garlic (or garlic paste)
2 tablespoons chopped parsley (divided)
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
2 tablespoons olive oil (divided)
¼ cup shredded parmesan cheese
½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese
½ cup heavy cream
Instructions
Prepare the Chicken:
Cut chicken breasts into ½-inch pieces. Place in a bowl, drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil, and season with 1 tablespoon poultry seasoning (or salt, pepper, and garlic powder).
Cook the Chicken:
Heat a pan over medium heat. Cook chicken until golden brown and fully cooked through. Remove from pan and set aside.
Prepare Garlic Butter Bread:
Slice the Italian loaf lengthwise. In a bowl, mix 1 stick melted butter, 1 tablespoon minced garlic, 1 tablespoon parsley, and crushed red pepper flakes. Spread evenly over both halves of the bread.
Toast the Bread:
Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 5–10 minutes until lightly toasted.
Make Alfredo Sauce:
In the same pan over medium-low heat, melt remaining ½ stick butter. Add 1 tablespoon minced garlic and cook 2–3 minutes until fragrant. Lower heat and stir in heavy cream, parmesan cheese, and remaining parsley. Simmer 3–5 minutes until slightly thickened. Remove from heat.
Assemble:
Spread half the Alfredo sauce over toasted bread. Add cooked chicken, sprinkle mozzarella cheese, then spoon remaining sauce on top.
Bake:
Return to oven at 350°F for 5 minutes or until cheese is melted and bubbly. Slice into 2–3 inch pieces and serve warm.
Notes
For extra crispiness, broil for the last 1–2 minutes.
Use rotisserie chicken for an even quicker version.
Add spinach or mushrooms for extra flavor.
Best served fresh but can be reheated in the oven at 325°F to maintain crispness.
