Garlic Bread Chicken Parmesan Pizzas are individual pizzas made with frozen garlic bread, pizza sauce, chicken strips and shredded cheese. Easy and delicious!
A FUN, SIMPLE WEEKNIGHT MEAL!
Around my house we have meals that we call the Working Mom’s Specials. These meals, like these Garlic Bread Chicken Parmesan Pizzas, are our easy to make meals where we don’t have the time (or energy) to be fussing with a lot of ingredients or making a bunch of dirty dishes to be washed. Plus, these taste really, really good!
TIPS FOR MAKING GARLIC BREAD CHICKEN PARMESAN PIZZAS:
- Any pre-cooked chicken will work for this: grilled, rotisserie or even chicken nuggets
- In addition, marinara sauce can be substituted for the pizza sauce. You might want a little extra for dipping!
- To serve: I just grabbed one of those prepackaged Caesar Salad Kits that are in the produce section to serve with this.
INGREDIENTS NEEDED: (FULL RECIPE AT THE BOTTOM OF THE POST)
- Garlic Texas Toast
- pizza sauce
- precooked chicken nuggets or popcorn chicken
- shredded mozzarella cheese
HOW TO MAKE THESE GARLIC BREAD CHICKEN PARMESAN PIZZAS:
Preheat oven to 400F degrees. Arrange garlic bread (butter side up) on a baking sheet.
Bake frozen garlic toast for about 3-4 minutes until bread is no longer frozen and just starting to brown on the edges.
While, the bread is toasting, start dicing up the cooked chicken. Cut them up into 1/2-inch pieces. When bread is ready, spread sauce on each slice of garlic toast (or loaf, if using)
Then evenly layer diced chicken on top of sauce.
Bake for about 6-8 minutes just to get that chicken warmed back up. Then take out and top each slice with some shredded mozzarella.
And pop it back into the oven for another 3-4 minutes just until cheese is melted and bubbly.
And enjoy!

I’m dealing with some serious health issues and have to do 48 hours of chemo therapy every other week. This cookbook would be a Godsend for my family.
Made this tonight for dinner and it was a hit with the family–they gobbled it up. I used chicken tenders chopped up and served it with a side of spaghetti. Kids told me that I can make it again so that was an affirmation that they liked it.
I have a house full of very picky eaters and it is a challenge coming up with new things to cook. Everyone seems to want something different. I am always looking for new recipes to try.

I'm having a baby this summer and I know that easy go-to meals will be a huge help. Thanks!
I would be thrilled to win the cookbook, I think no matter how long you've been cooking it's always nice to find something new and refreshing!
I love your blog and have fixed many recipes all fabulous keep up the good work you do an outstanding job.
This book looks AWESOME!! Aside from being a cookbook junkie, I adore Southern Living and am always thrilled to find good, quick, worknight-doable dinners for my family!
This cookbook would help get us out of a food rut.
With all the activities today's youth add to their daily routine, parents have little time for meal planning let alone cooking. And with the price of groceries going up let alone gas for the family vehicle, every little tip helps to save time and money. This cook book seems to do just that. My youngest son age 15 is in Scouts and Key Club. He has decided to add wrestling and banjo lessons to his extra-curricular activities. This cook book appears to have recipes that will help me to keep up with him. And I need all the tips I can get with an active teenager! 🙂
This cook book appears to be a rather down to earth book. With the price of groceries going up and parents always on the go getting their children from point A to point B, the recipes seem practical, time saving, and cost practical. My youngest is in Boy Scouts and Key Club, and has now decided to add wrestling and banjo lessons to his activities. With all this activity, there is little time for meal planning let alone cooking. Any little tips are always helpful and welcomed–and this cook book appears to fit the bill.
30-minute meals everyone will love? That's what I'm looking for–quick dinner ideas that the family won't turn their noses up at.
