Ingredients
Scale
- 2 small chicken breasts
- 1 Italian style loaf
- 2 tablespoons of poultry seasoning or salt, pepper, garlic powder
- 1.5 sticks of unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons minced garlic or garlic paste
- 2 tablespoons of chopped parsley
- 1 teaspoon of crushed red pepper flakes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 0.25 cup of shredded parmesan cheese
- 0.5 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese
- 0.5 cup heavy cream
Instructions
- Cut the chicken breasts into ½ inch pieces. Transfer them to a bowl, drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, and season with 1 tablespoon of poultry seasoning or a mix of salt, pepper, and garlic powder. In a pan over medium heat, cook the chicken until golden.
- Slice your bread lengthwise in half. In a small bowl, combine 1 stick of melted butter, 1 tablespoon of minced garlic, 1 tablespoon of chopped parsley, and 1 teaspoon of crushed red pepper flakes.
- Spread this butter mixture evenly on both halves of the bread. Toast the bread in a preheated 350°F oven for 5-10 minutes, checking after 5 minutes and monitoring until it reaches your desired level of toasting.
- Using the same pan used to cook the chicken, heat it over medium-low heat. Add 0.5 stick of butter and let it melt, then stir in 1 tablespoon of minced garlic and cook for 2-3 minutes until fragrant.
- Lower the heat to low and add 0.5 cup of heavy cream, 0.25 cup of shredded parmesan cheese, and 1 tablespoon of chopped parsley. Simmer the sauce on low heat, stirring continuously, until it thickens slightly (about 3-5 minutes). Remove the pan from the heat.
- Spread half of the prepared alfredo sauce over the toasted garlic bread. Top with the chopped chicken, shredded mozzarella cheese, and the remaining alfredo sauce.
- Return the chicken alfredo garlic bread to the oven and bake at 350°F for another 5 minutes, or until the cheese is fully melted. Slice the chicken alfredo garlic bread into 2-3 inch pieces and serve warm. Enjoy your homemade chicken alfredo garlic bread!
