  • Total Time: 30 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cooked and shredded
  • 1 cup Alfredo sauce (homemade or store-bought)
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
  • 1 medium onion, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup marinara or tomato sauce
  • 4 hoagie buns or sandwich rolls
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Olive oil for cooking

Instructions

  1. Cook the chicken breasts in a skillet with a splash of olive oil until fully cooked and tender. Once cooled, shred the chicken into bite-sized pieces. Season with salt and pepper during cooking.
  2. In a large skillet, heat a tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Sauté the chopped onion and minced garlic until fragrant and translucent, about 3-4 minutes. Add shredded chicken and stir to combine. Pour in Alfredo sauce and marinara sauce, mix well, and simmer for 5 minutes.
  3. Toast the sandwich buns lightly if desired. Spoon a generous amount of the creamy chicken Alfredo mixture onto each bun. Top with grated Parmesan cheese and chopped parsley before serving.

Notes

  • Use freshly cooked or pre-cooked shredded chicken for the best texture.
  • Opt for high-quality Alfredo sauce for richer flavor.
  • Adjust the sauce consistency with chicken broth if it becomes too thick.
  • Add herbs like basil or oregano to customize the flavor.
  • Prepare the filling in advance for quick assembly during busy evenings.
