Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 fresh French bread loaf (about 12 inches)
  • 2 cups cooked chicken breast, shredded or diced
  • 1 cup Alfredo sauce
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 cup butter, melted
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon fresh parsley or 1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Bread: Slice the French bread loaf lengthwise into two halves. Lightly hollow out some of the soft inside to create space for the filling without overstuffing.
  2. Mix the Filling: In a bowl, combine the shredded or diced cooked chicken breast, Alfredo sauce, mozzarella cheese, and Parmesan cheese. Stir thoroughly so everything is well coated and evenly mixed.
  3. Make the Garlic Butter: Melt the butter and mix it with the minced garlic and fresh parsley or Italian seasoning. Brush this garlic butter generously over the inner sides of both bread halves to infuse them with flavor.
  4. Assemble the Bread: Spread the chicken Alfredo mixture evenly inside the hollowed bread halves, pressing gently to compact the filling. Sprinkle a little extra mozzarella or Parmesan cheese on top for a golden crust.
  5. Bake Until Perfect: Place the stuffed bread on a baking tray and bake in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 15-20 minutes, or until the bread is golden and the cheese is bubbling and slightly browned.

Notes

  • Use day-old bread if possible; it holds up better against moist fillings and crisps nicely when baked.
  • Do not overfill the bread to prevent spillage during baking.
  • Use a serrated bread knife for clean slicing without compressing the bread.
  • Use leftover rotisserie chicken or pre-cook chicken breast to save time and add flavor.
  • Allow the baked bread to rest for 5 minutes before slicing so the filling sets.
