Ingredients
- 4 small sourdough bread bowls
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1 cup baby spinach leaves
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
- 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
If you’re out of sourdough, any sturdy bread bowl will work wonderfully. And if you’re feeling adventurous, swap out the spinach for kale or add a dash of red pepper flakes for a spicy kick!
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F. Slice the tops off the sourdough bowls and carefully scoop out the insides, leaving a thick crust.
- In a skillet over medium heat, add the olive oil and garlic. Sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.
- Stir in the heavy cream and bring to a simmer. Gradually add in the Parmesan cheese, stirring until the sauce thickens.
- Add the cooked chicken, Italian seasoning, and spinach to the sauce. Cook until the spinach wilts and the chicken is heated through, about 5 minutes.
- Season with salt and pepper, then spoon the Alfredo mixture into each bread bowl.
- Top with shredded mozzarella cheese and place the bread bowls on a baking sheet.
- Bake in the preheated oven until the cheese is bubbly and golden, about 10 minutes.
- Garnish with chopped parsley before serving.
