Ingredients

Bread and Butter

  • 1 loaf French bread, halved lengthwise
  • 3 tbsp butter, softened
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced

Chicken Alfredo Topping

  • 1½ cups cooked chicken breast, shredded
  • 1 cup Alfredo sauce
  • 1½ cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
  • ½ tsp Italian seasoning


Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Set your oven to 375°F (190°C) to prepare it for baking the garlic bread loaded with chicken Alfredo.
  2. Prepare Garlic Butter: In a small bowl, mix the softened butter with minced garlic until well combined. This mixture will coat the bread to infuse it with rich garlic flavor.
  3. Apply Garlic Butter: Spread the garlic butter evenly over the cut sides of the French bread halves, ensuring full coverage for maximum taste.
  4. Mix Chicken Alfredo: In a separate bowl, combine the shredded cooked chicken with the Alfredo sauce to create a creamy, flavorful topping.
  5. Top the Bread: Spread the chicken Alfredo mixture evenly over the garlic buttered bread halves, making sure the layers are thorough.
  6. Add Cheese and Seasoning: Sprinkle shredded mozzarella and grated Parmesan cheese generously on top of the chicken layer. Then, sprinkle Italian seasoning evenly over the cheese for added herbal notes.
  7. Bake: Place the prepared bread on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 12 to 15 minutes until the cheese has melted and the dish is heated through.
  8. Broil for Finish: For a golden, bubbly cheese top, broil the bread for 1 to 2 minutes; watch carefully to avoid burning.
  9. Garnish and Serve: Remove from the oven, sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley for freshness, slice into servings, and enjoy while hot.

Notes

  • Add cooked bacon or fresh spinach to the chicken Alfredo mixture for extra flavor and texture.
  • Best served immediately fresh and hot from the oven to enjoy the ideal cheesy and crispy texture.
