Method
- Season chicken cubes with 1-2 teaspoons garlic and herb seasoning, salt, and pepper. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook chicken 6-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until golden brown and internal temperature reaches 165°F. Remove and set aside.
- Bring large pot of salted water to boil. Add 1 pound pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente, about 8-10 minutes. Drain well and return to pot.
- Preheat oven to 375°F. Slice tops off kaiser rolls and hollow out centers, leaving half-inch thick walls.
- Mix melted butter with 1-2 teaspoons garlic and herb seasoning. Using pastry brush or spoon, generously brush inside walls and edges of each hollowed bread bowl with garlic-butter mixture.
- Place brushed bread bowls on baking sheet and bake 4-5 minutes until lightly toasted and golden.
- Add drained pasta and Alfredo sauce to pot with cooked chicken. Stir over low heat for 2 minutes until sauce coats pasta and chicken evenly. Taste and adjust seasoning.
- Fill each toasted bread bowl with chicken Alfredo mixture, being careful not to overfill. Leave about quarter-inch from top edge. Sprinkle about 1 tablespoon shredded Parmesan over each bowl.
- Return filled bowls to oven for 4-5 minutes until cheese melts and bread edges are crisp.
- Cool 2 minutes before serving. Garnish with parsley or red pepper flakes if desired. Serve hot.
Notes
Use rotisserie chicken to save time. Toast bread bowls before filling to prevent sogginess. Store leftover filling separately for up to 3 days. Reheat filled bowls in 350°F oven for 8-10 minutes to restore crispness. Choose kaiser rolls at least 4 inches wide for best results.
