Ingredients
  

2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

4 tablespoons olive oil, divided

4 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon dried oregano

1 teaspoon paprika

Salt and pepper, to taste

1 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded

1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded

1/2 cup cream cheese, softened

1 loaf of French bread or garlic bread

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Chicken: Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, paprika, and oregano. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook the chicken for 6-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked and no longer pink in the center. Remove from heat, let it cool slightly, then shred or chop the chicken into bite-sized pieces.

    Make the Garlic Butter: In a small bowl, combine the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil and minced garlic. Mix well to create a garlic oil.

      Mix the Cheesy Filling: In a medium bowl, combine the shredded chicken, mozzarella cheese, cheddar cheese, and softened cream cheese. Mix thoroughly until well combined.

        Prepare the Bread: If using French bread, slice it open lengthwise. If using garlic bread, you can slice it into sandwiches or just lay it flat.

          Assemble the Sandwiches: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Brush the garlic butter mixture generously over the insides of the bread. Then, on one half of the loaf, spread the cheesy chicken mixture evenly.

            Seal the Sandwich: Place the other half of the bread on top, pressing down gently to seal the sandwich together. For added crunch and flavor, you can brush a bit more garlic oil on the outside of the bread.

              Bake: Wrap the sandwich in aluminum foil and place it in the preheated oven. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly. For a crispy finish, unwrap the foil for the last 5 minutes of baking.

                Slice and Serve: Once baked, remove from the oven and let it cool for a minute. Slice the sandwich into portions, sprinkle with fresh chopped parsley, and serve warm. Enjoy your delicious Cheesy Chicken Garlic Bread Sandwich!
