Ingredients
  

2 large pieces of garlic bread (store-bought or homemade)

1 cup cooked chicken, shredded (rotisserie chicken works great)

1/2 cup cream cheese, softened

1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

1/4 cup fresh basil leaves, chopped

1 teaspoon garlic powder

Salt and pepper to taste

2 tablespoons olive oil

Optional: crushed red pepper flakes for heat

Instructions
 

Preheat your oven: Set it to 375°F (190°C).

    Prepare the filling: In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, cream cheese, mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, chopped basil, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well until everything is evenly coated and combined.

      Assemble the sandwich: Take one piece of garlic bread and spread half of the chicken cheese mixture on it. Top with the other piece of garlic bread to form a sandwich.

        Prepare the bread: Brush the outer sides of the garlic bread with olive oil to ensure a golden brown crust.

          Bake: Place the sandwich on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes, or until the bread is golden and crispy, and the cheese is melted.

            Slice and serve: Once out of the oven, let it cool for a minute, then slice the sandwich in half. Optionally sprinkle with crushed red pepper flakes for added heat. Enjoy warm!
