Ingredients
Bread and Garlic Butter
- 1 loaf of Italian or French bread (cut lengthwise)
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter (softened)
- 2 cloves garlic (minced)
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
Toppings
- 1 cup Alfredo sauce
- 1 ½ cups cooked chicken breast (shredded or diced)
- 1 ½ cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- Chopped parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
- Preheat and Prepare Bread: Preheat the oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Place the bread halves cut side up on the baking sheet.
- Make Garlic Butter: In a small bowl, combine the softened butter, minced garlic, and garlic powder. Spread this garlic butter mixture evenly over the cut sides of the bread.
- Toast Bread: Bake the bread halves for 5–6 minutes until they are lightly toasted and fragrant. Remove from the oven.
- Add Alfredo Sauce and Toppings: Spread a generous layer of Alfredo sauce over each bread half. Top with the shredded or diced cooked chicken, mozzarella cheese, and Parmesan cheese. Sprinkle the Italian seasoning evenly on top.
- Bake Until Cheese Melts: Return the assembled pizzas to the oven and bake for an additional 10–12 minutes, or until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and slightly golden.
- Garnish and Serve: Remove from the oven, garnish with chopped parsley if desired, slice into portions, and serve warm for the best flavor and texture.
Notes
- Rotisserie chicken works great for this recipe and saves cooking time.
- For extra flavor, consider adding cooked bacon, spinach, or sun-dried tomatoes as toppings.
- You can use either store-bought or homemade Alfredo sauce depending on your preference and convenience.
