Blackened Chicken Alfredo French Bread Pizza

This recipe is yummy. It took a while to make since I made my own French bread and alfredo sauce. For ease, the recipe that I am including uses French bread and alfredo sauce from the store. If you make your own, use them instead.  

Ingredients:

2 Boneless chicken breasts sliced in half 

1 Tbs butter for frying the chicken

1 15 oz jar alfredo sauce

1 French bread loaf, sliced in half

1/2 stick of butter for the garlic butter

2 Tbs of minced garlic

3 Tbs chopped or dried parsley

8 oz Grated Mozzarella cheese, divided 

Tony Chachere's No Salt Seasoning Blend, or similar product

Season Salt


I have yet to make a smooth alfredo sauce. I guess in truth, I have never followed a recipe per se. Today was no exception. I used milk with a very high fat content instead of full cream, butter, garlic and parmesan cheese for the base of the alfredo sauce. I would advise following a recipe or using a high-quality alfredo sauce in a jar. Just add some No Salt creole seasoning for added flavor. Parmesan is very salty. I used Tony Chachere's Creole No Salt Seasoning Blend. This is good stuff!



Season the chicken with season salt and creole seasoning.
Heat up or make from scratch the alfredo sauce.
Add a bit of creole seasoning to taste.

Grate the cheese

Sear the seasoned chicken breast in butter until it forms a nice dark crust and is thoroughly cooked.

Dice chicken into small cubes.

Split the French bread lengthwise in half.

Melt 1/2 stick of butter, add 2 to 3 tablespoons of minced garlic and 3 tablespoons of parsley.

Spread evenly between the two halves. 

Bake at 400* degrees for 10-12 minutes.

Spread 1/4 of the grated mozzarella on top of the pre-baked garlic bread. 

Add some alfredo sauce on top of the mozzarella. Not too much. 

Pile on the blackened chicken breast. 

Add 1/4 more of the mozzarella.

Add a little more alfredo sauce. Repeat the process on the other half of the garlic bread.

I only made 1/2 half of the recipe. I added the rest of the blackened chicken to the leftover alfredo sauce and froze it to use at a later date. I will thaw, reheat and serve it over cooked pasta like penne with the leftover garlic bread and a salad.

This can easily be made into a hot sub sandwich by placing the other half of the garlic bread on top and baking it for the final 12-15 minutes.

Bake in a 400* degree oven for 12-15 minutes.

Slice and serve with a fresh salad.

Enjoy,

Mrs. Smith
