Description

This buffalo chicken garlic bread is stuffed with creamy, spicy chicken and baked inside toasted garlic baguettes for a cheesy, satisfying meal.


Ingredients

2 garlic baguettes (about 7 ounces each), fresh or frozen

2 tablespoons neutral cooking oil

2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-size pieces (about 12 ounces total)

1 tablespoon Cajun-style seasoning

½ teaspoon black pepper

1 chicken bouillon cube, crumbled

1 medium onion, thinly sliced

1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced

1 yellow bell pepper, thinly sliced

2 cloves garlic, minced

2 jalapeños or mild green chilies, sliced

¼ cup hot pepper sauce

1 tablespoon Worcestershire-style sauce

1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar

⅓ cup heavy cream

½ cup shredded cheddar cheese

3 green onions, chopped


Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F, or follow the baking temperature listed on your garlic bread package.

2. If using fresh baguettes, slice them lengthwise down the center. If frozen, bake first and slice later.

3. Bake the garlic baguettes on a sheet pan according to package directions.

4. While the bread bakes, heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

5. Add the chicken, Cajun seasoning, and black pepper. Cook for 5 minutes, until lightly browned and nearly cooked through.

6. Add crumbled bouillon cube and stir to combine.

7. Add onion, bell peppers, garlic, and half the jalapeños. Cook for another 5 minutes, stirring often.

8. Pour in hot pepper sauce, Worcestershire sauce, apple cider vinegar, and heavy cream. Stir and bring to a gentle simmer.

9. Simmer for 4–5 minutes, until chicken is fully cooked and sauce thickens. Remove from heat.

10. Open the baked garlic baguettes and spoon the buffalo chicken mixture inside.

11. Sprinkle shredded cheese evenly over the filling.

12. Return to oven for 2–3 minutes, until cheese melts.

13. Remove from oven, slice each baguette in half, and top with remaining jalapeños and chopped green onions before serving.

Notes

Use rotisserie chicken to cut down prep time.

Swap in mozzarella or blue cheese for different flavor variations.

Great served with a light salad or crisp drink to balance the heat.
