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 love meals that take 30 minutes or less as I'm on my own most nights for dinner while my hubby is at school. And with the after school homework whirlwind there isn't much time left for dinner prep. I would love some new ideas!

Oh Gosh, this is great! With 2 teens who are always going in opposite directions and never knowing who's eating when, this is a real go-to meal for me. Plus-it will introduce me into the frozen garlic bread world. Yes, I admit, I am a novice, but I'm ready to jump in with both feet and eyes wide open!!

I'm 70 and down sizing and just donated years of Southern Living yearly annual cookbooks that I had saved for certain recipes to our local College that has a culinary school. The librarian was thrilled and she was telling how they would use them to show how culinary trends had changed. I had them going back to the early 70's. at this age I am enjoying slow cookers and simple recipes..can't wait to make the chicken Parm pizzas for my grandchildren!
Love your blog. I am always looking for new recipes. I hate cookbooks without pictures. Southern living is my magazine of choice when traveling. I love their recipes.
