Prep & Cook the Chicken
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Pat dry the chicken breasts and season both sides generously with salt, smoked paprika, garlic powder, black pepper, and onion powder.
  3. Heat clarified butter or oil in a skillet over medium heat.
  4. Sear the chicken for 4–5 minutes per side or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
  5. Remove from the pan, let it rest for a few minutes, then slice thinly and set aside.
Make the Alfredo Sauce
  1. In a saucepan, melt 2 tbsp butter over medium-low heat.
  2. Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant (about 30 seconds).
  3. Pour in the heavy whipping cream and bring it to a gentle boil.
  4. Slowly whisk in the Parmesan cheese until melted and the sauce begins to thicken.
  5. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
  6. Simmer on low heat until thick and creamy. Set aside.
Mix the Garlic Butter Compound

    - Softened butter
    - Minced garlic
    - Chopped parsley
    - A pinch of salt
  2. Mix well until smooth and fully combined.
Assemble the Garlic Bread
  1. Slice the Italian bread in half lengthwise.
  2. Spread 2–3 tablespoons of the garlic butter compound on each half.
  3. Spoon a layer of Alfredo sauce over the bread.
  4. Sprinkle with mozzarella cheese.
  5. Layer with sliced chicken, and drizzle a bit more Alfredo sauce on top.

Bake & Serve
