Ingredients
  

  • 2 small chicken breasts
  • 1 Italian style loaf
  • 2 tablespoons poultry seasoning or salt, pepper, garlic powder
  • 1 1/2 sticks unsalted butter
  • 2 tablespoons minced garlic or garlic paste
  • 2 tablespoons chopped parsley
  • 1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
  • 2 tablespoons Napa Valley olive oil
  • 1/4 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream

Method
 

  1. Cut chicken breasts into ½-inch pieces. Transfer 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. Cook the chicken in a pan over medium heat until golden.
  2. Slice 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.
  3. Spread the 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 desired toast level is reached.
  4. Using the same pan, heat it over medium-low heat. Add ½ stick of butter and melt. Stir in 1 tablespoon of minced garlic and cook for 2-3 minutes until fragrant.
  5. Lower the heat to low. Add ½ cup of heavy cream, ¼ cup of shredded Parmesan cheese, and 1 tablespoon of chopped parsley. Simmer the sauce on low heat, stirring continuously, until slightly thickened (about 3-5 minutes). Remove the pan from the heat.
  6. Spread half of the prepared sauce over the toasted bread. Top with the chopped chicken, shredded mozzarella cheese, and the remaining sauce.
  7. Return the bread to the oven and bake at 350°F for another 5 minutes, or until the cheese is fully melted. Slice the bread into 2-3 inch pieces and serve warm.

Notes

Ingredient Swap: I've totally used chicken thighs instead of breasts when I wanted a richer, juicier bite.
Just make sure to cut them into similar small pieces so they cook evenly.
