Chicken Alfredo garlic bread bowls are a cozy, indulgent mash-up of buttery garlic bread and creamy Alfredo pasta. Each toasted bread bowl is filled with rich Alfredo sauce, tender chicken, and melty cheese—making them the ultimate handheld comfort food.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups cooked chicken breast, shredded or chopped
  • 8 oz fettuccine or penne pasta, cooked al dente
  • 2 tbsp butter (plus extra for brushing)
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 1/2 cups heavy cream
  • 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1/2 tsp Italian seasoning (optional)
  • 4 sturdy bread rolls or small round loaves, hollowed out
  • Chopped fresh parsley, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Cook pasta according to package instructions; drain and set aside.
  2. In a skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant (about 1 minute).
  3. Pour in heavy cream and simmer for 3–4 minutes. Stir in Parmesan, salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning, cooking until sauce slightly thickens.
  4. Fold in cooked chicken and pasta until evenly coated in Alfredo sauce. Remove from heat.
  5. Brush hollowed bread bowls with melted garlic butter and toast in a 375°F oven for 5–7 minutes until lightly crisp.
  6. Spoon Alfredo mixture into toasted bread bowls. Top each with mozzarella cheese.
  7. Return to oven and bake for 10–12 minutes until cheese is bubbly and golden.
  8. Garnish with chopped parsley and serve hot.

Notes

  • Use rotisserie chicken for quicker prep.
  • Add veggies like spinach, mushrooms, or broccoli for variety.
  • Swap mozzarella with provolone or Asiago for different flavors.
  • For parties, use mini dinner rolls for bite-size portions.
  • Store Alfredo pasta separately from bread bowls to avoid sogginess.
