French bread pizzas are so versatile. You can serve them for game day, an easy weeknight dinner with a side salad, or simply a melty after-school snack. This chicken parmesan version mixes simple ingredients (which you probably already have on hand) and produces big flavors.

Ingredients & Directions

Directions

Chicken Parmesan French Bread Pizza

10
½ loaf
ciabatta bread
2 tablespoons
olive oil
2
garlic cloves
½ cup
pizza sauce
4 oz.
fresh mozzarella, sliced
4 slices
provolone, sliced
2 tablespoons
grated parmesan
6
cherry tomatoes, sliced
4
basil leaves, chopped
Italian parsley, chopped
  1. Warm the chicken chunks according to the package directions. (You can warm them in the oven or air fryer.)
  2. Once warmed, slice into smaller bite-sized pieces.
  3. Cut the ciabatta in half, lengthwise, and brush the inner part with olive oil.
  4. Place on a baking sheet and toast in a 450F preheated oven for about 5 minutes (or until crusty on top).
  5. Once toasted, remove and rub the crusted bread with a garlic clove.
  6. Turn the oven down to 425F.
  7. Top each ciabatta half with pizza sauce, cooked chicken chunks, fresh mozzarella, provolone, parmesan and tomatoes.
  8. Bake for 10 minutes, or until cheese is melted.
  9. Serve with additional pizza sauce, if desired, and sprinkle with fresh herbs.

NOTES

Notes from Jess:

· I personally cook my chicken chunks in the air fryer. 400F for about 10 minutes does the trick. Also, leftovers heat up easily at 400F for about 3 – 5 minutes (they’re crispy!).

· Fresh mozzarella is so melty and tasty, it’s what I prefer for French bread pizzas. However, you can totally substitute with whatever cheese you enjoy most.

· The fresh herbs on top are super tasty, and I highly recommend warmed pizza sauce on the side for dipping. My kids like ranch as well.
