Chicken Alfredo Garlic Bread (Print Version)

Crispy garlic bread loaded with savory chicken, creamy Alfredo sauce, and golden bubbly cheese.

# Ingredients:

→ Main Components

01 - 2 small boneless, skinless chicken breasts
02 - 1 Italian-style loaf of bread

→ Herbs and Seasonings

03 - 2 tablespoons poultry seasoning
04 - 2 tablespoons minced garlic or garlic paste
05 - 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
06 - 1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes

→ Dairy

07 - 1 1/2 sticks unsalted butter (12 tablespoons)
08 - 1/4 cup shredded parmesan cheese
09 - 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
10 - 1/2 cup heavy cream

→ Oils

11 - 2 tablespoons olive oil

# Steps:

01 - Cut the chicken breasts into 1/2-inch pieces. Place them in a bowl, drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, and season with 1 tablespoon of poultry seasoning or a blend of salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
02 - Heat a nonstick pan over medium heat. Add the seasoned chicken and cook until pieces are golden brown and fully cooked through. Remove from heat and set aside.
03 - Slice the Italian loaf lengthwise into two halves. Set aside.
04 - In a small bowl, combine 1 stick (8 tablespoons) of melted butter, 1 tablespoon of minced garlic, 1 tablespoon of chopped parsley, and 1 teaspoon of crushed red pepper flakes. Stir well.
05 - Evenly spread the prepared garlic butter mixture over both bread halves. Place on a baking tray and toast in a preheated 350°F oven for 5–10 minutes, monitoring after 5 minutes until bread reaches preferred crispness.
06 - Using the same pan used for chicken, heat over medium-low. Add 1/2 stick (4 tablespoons) of butter to melt. Stir in 1 tablespoon minced garlic and cook for 2–3 minutes until aromatic.
07 - Reduce heat to low. Add 1/2 cup heavy cream, 1/4 cup shredded parmesan, and 1 tablespoon chopped parsley. Simmer, stirring constantly, until sauce thickens slightly, about 3–5 minutes. Remove from heat.
08 - Spread half of the Alfredo sauce evenly over the toasted bread. Top with the cooked chicken pieces and distribute the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly. Drizzle the remaining sauce over the top.
09 - Return the assembled bread to the oven and bake at 350°F for 5 minutes, or until the cheese is fully melted. Slice bread into 2–3 inch pieces and serve warm.

# Notes:

01 - Monitor the bread closely while toasting to prevent burning, and adjust the baking time according to your oven.
