- 1 ½ sticks unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons minced garlic (or garlic paste)
- 2 tablespoons chopped parsley (divided)
- 1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil (divided)
- ¼ cup shredded Parmesan cheese
- ½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- ½ cup heavy cream
Instructions
- Prepare the Chicken:
Cut chicken into ½-inch pieces. Toss with 1 tablespoon olive oil and 1 tablespoon poultry seasoning. Cook in a skillet over medium heat until golden and fully cooked. Remove and set aside. - Make Garlic Butter & Toast Bread:
Preheat oven to 350°F.
In a bowl, combine 1 stick melted butter, 1 tablespoon minced garlic, 1 tablespoon parsley, and red pepper flakes.
Spread evenly over both halves of the sliced bread.
Bake 5–10 minutes until lightly toasted. - Prepare Alfredo Sauce:
In the same pan, melt ½ stick butter over medium-low heat.
Add remaining garlic and cook 2–3 minutes until fragrant.
Reduce heat to low. Stir in heavy cream, Parmesan, and remaining parsley.
Simmer 3–5 minutes until slightly thickened. Remove from heat. - Assemble:
Spread half the Alfredo sauce over toasted bread.
Top with cooked chicken and shredded mozzarella.
Spoon remaining sauce over the top. - Bake Again:
Return to oven and bake at 350°F for about 5 minutes, or until cheese is melted and bubbly.
Slice into 2–3 inch pieces and serve warm.
Notes
- For extra crispiness, broil for 1–2 minutes at the end (watch carefully).
- Chicken thighs can be substituted for juicier texture.
- Store leftovers in the fridge up to 3 days and reheat in oven or air fryer for best texture.
- Add spinach or crispy bacon for a fun twist.
