Chicken
- 2 small chicken breasts
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon poultry seasoning (or salt, pepper, garlic powder mix)
Bread
Garlic Butter Spread
- 1 1/2 sticks unsalted butter (1 stick melted for butter spread, 1/2 stick for Alfredo sauce)
- 2 tablespoons minced garlic (or garlic paste)
- 2 tablespoons chopped parsley
- 1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
Alfredo Sauce
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1/4 cup shredded parmesan cheese
- 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 tablespoon chopped parsley
- 1 tablespoon minced garlic
- 1/2 stick unsalted butter (included above)
Other
- 1 tablespoon olive oil (for cooking)
- Prepare and Season Chicken: Cut the chicken breasts into ½ inch pieces. Place in a bowl, drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil and season with 1 tablespoon poultry seasoning or a mixture of salt, pepper, and garlic powder. In a heated pan over medium heat, cook the chicken pieces until they turn golden brown and are cooked through. Set aside.
- Slice and Prepare Bread: Slice the Italian loaf lengthwise in half. In a small bowl, mix 1 stick of melted butter with 1 tablespoon minced garlic, 1 tablespoon chopped parsley, and 1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes to make the garlic butter spread.
- Toast the Bread: Spread the prepared garlic butter evenly on both halves of the bread. Place the bread on a baking sheet and toast in a preheated oven at 350°F (180°C) for 5-10 minutes. Check after 5 minutes to ensure it reaches your preferred toasting level.
- Make Alfredo Sauce: Using the same pan you cooked the chicken in, heat over medium-low. Melt 1/2 stick of butter, add 1 tablespoon minced garlic, and cook for 2-3 minutes until fragrant. Reduce heat to low and add 1/2 cup heavy cream, 1/4 cup shredded parmesan cheese, and 1 tablespoon chopped parsley. Simmer gently, stirring continuously until the sauce thickens slightly, about 3-5 minutes. Remove from heat.
- Assemble the Bread: Spread half of the Alfredo sauce over the toasted bread halves. Layer the cooked chicken pieces evenly over the sauce, then sprinkle with 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese. Drizzle or spread the remaining Alfredo sauce over the toppings.
- Bake to Melt Cheese: Return the assembled bread to the oven and bake at 350°F (180°C) for about 5 minutes or until the mozzarella cheese is fully melted and bubbly.
- Serve: Slice the cheesy garlic chicken bread into 2-3 inch pieces for easy serving. Serve warm and enjoy your delicious Viral Chicken Alfredo Garlic Bread!
Notes
- For a spicier kick, add more crushed red pepper flakes or a dash of cayenne pepper to the garlic butter spread.
- You can substitute mozzarella with other melting cheeses like provolone or fontina for a different flavor.
- Use fresh parsley for the best aroma and flavor; dried parsley can be used in a pinch.
- To reduce fat content, substitute heavy cream with half-and-half, though the sauce may be less rich.
- Chicken breasts can be swapped for thighs if preferred, adjusting cooking time accordingly.
