Chicken Alfredo Garlic Bread Bowls
These Chicken Alfredo Garlic Bread Bowls are the perfect comfort food! A creamy and savory chicken alfredo served in a crispy, buttery garlic bread bowl. The ideal meal for any day, especially Easter or a cozy dinner with friends and family!
Ingredients:
- 3 chicken breasts, cut into cubes
- 1 pound pasta (penne, fettuccine, or your choice)
- 6 kaiser rolls (or more if needed)
- 1 jar alfredo sauce (about 15 oz)
- 1 stick (½ cup) unsalted butter, melted
- 3-4 teaspoons garlic and herb seasoning
- ½ cup shredded parmesan cheese
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Slice the tops off the kaiser rolls and carefully hollow them out, leaving a small rim around the edges to create bowls. Set the tops aside for later use or discard.
- Brush the hollowed-out rolls with melted butter and sprinkle with garlic and herb seasoning. Place the rolls on a baking sheet and bake for 10-12 minutes or until golden and crispy.
- Meanwhile, cook the pasta according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
- In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the cubed chicken breasts, season with salt and pepper, and cook until the chicken is browned and fully cooked, about 6-8 minutes.
- Add the jar of alfredo sauce to the skillet with the chicken and bring to a simmer. Let the sauce cook for 2-3 minutes, then stir in the shredded parmesan cheese until melted and smooth.
- Mix in the cooked pasta and toss until everything is well-coated in the creamy alfredo sauce.
- Carefully spoon the chicken alfredo mixture into each garlic bread bowl. Serve immediately, and enjoy!
Tips for Perfect Chicken Alfredo Garlic Bread Bowls:
- If you like extra garlic flavor, sprinkle a little extra garlic powder on top of the rolls before baking.
- For a lighter version, you can use grilled chicken or substitute the alfredo sauce with a lighter option like a cauliflower-based sauce.
- Feel free to add fresh parsley or extra parmesan cheese on top for garnish.
