Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 loaf of Italian or French bread
  • 2 cooked chicken breasts, shredded
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (or your favorite cheese)
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/4 cup chopped green onions
  • 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • Optional: red pepper flakes for a bit of heat

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, combine the shredded chicken, mayonnaise, green onions, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, and black pepper. Mix well. Add red pepper flakes if desired.
  2. Preheat oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C). Slice the bread lengthwise, being careful not to cut all the way through, creating a boat. Remove some bread from the center.
  3. Spoon the chicken mixture into the bread cavity, spreading evenly.
  4. Top with shredded cheddar cheese, ensuring it covers the entire surface.
  5. Place the filled bread on a baking sheet and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the bread is golden brown.
  6. Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • Use a good quality bread for the best results.
  • Don’t overfill the bread to prevent it from becoming soggy.
  • Adjust seasonings to your preference.
  • Use pre-cooked or rotisserie chicken to save time.
  • Add chopped vegetables like bell peppers or onions for added flavor.
