Garlic Bread Chicken Parmesan Pizzas
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 have never been disappointed in any Southern Living recipe that I have made. That is the first thing I look at in the magazine.

Can't wait to try these individual garlic bread pizzas, sound delicious! If I had a cookbook I wouldn't have to include my laptop as the main ingredient in all your great recipes! 🙂 marchuns (at) aol (dot) com .
After cooking almost everyday of my married life, 30 hmmmm years I need fresh ideas. I'm tired of the same old menu's week after week, my family would sure appreciate something new and so would I!
Thanks for a great blog, I use many of your wonderful ideas!!
What a great giveaway ! I would love to change up the dinner menu a little! This cookbook seems like a good way to start!! Amanda durham_81@yahoo.com
I sooo need this cookbook and here is why; we can NEVER decide what to make for dinner in my home! I really need some fresh new ideas because at this point, my family is tired of the same ole' thing all the time. (I've even repeated most of your recipies!) It is so bad, my boyfriend of 7 years swears he is going to make a "Supper Wheel" so that he can just spin it, and whatever it lands on we eat!!!

I am new at this and love your site. I turn 73 tomorrow and not fond of the kitchen for very long. This chicken pizza would be good for the Grandchildren and yet quick so I will have more play time. I would really benefit from the cook book .Thank you for all you do.

Hi….It's Tiffany, from Georgia, I just started following your blog, love the food you make and how its simple yet easy for a busy single mom, who loves a home cooked meal. I could use your featured cookbook to help with meal prep for myself and my daughter, on those late work nights or when entertaining a house full of guests. BTW I made the Southern Pecan Praline Cake and it was AWESOME!!!!! Keep the recipes coming!!!!

This book would be wonderful to have to get new ideas for fast and simple meals!
And of course I pinned it, gotta remember this to try later!!
New ideas are always helpful, especially if fast & easy!

This cookbook would be so helpful because I have a 7 month old who does not like to be put down. Cooking dinner for our family of 5 on church or soccer nights would be so much simpler!
I love to try new recipes! It would be a fun book to have. I also pinned this to my Pinterest board.
Wow this would be most certainly a handy book to have. After awhile it gets so difficult to try and figure out something different to have for dinner. My family loves when I surprise them with something new to try. Hope I'm lucky. robeader53@yahoo.com.
I run out of things to make for dinner. When I ask my kids what they want, they can't decide. Maybe this book would help all of us and I wouldn't be wondering what to make.

I would LOVE to have one of these books, my famous words when leaving the house are always "What's for dinner?"

Since I'm responsible for dinner at least 99% of the time, (cooking for a total of 5 people), this cookbook would be a Godsend! Dinner ideas are so hard to come up with, especially the quick and easy ones. Thanks for this opportunity! And I did repin this!
