Description
Chicken Bacon Ranch Bread is a deliciously stuffed French bread filled with shredded chicken, bacon, ranch dressing, and topped with gooey cheese.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 loaf of French bread
- 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
- 1 cup cooked bacon, chopped
- 1 cup ranch dressing
- 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/4 cup green onions, chopped
- 1 tablespoon butter, melted
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon dried parsley
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure it’s ready for baking.
- Slice the loaf of French bread in half lengthwise. Hollow out the center of each half, leaving about a 1-inch shell to create a cavity for the filling.
- In a large bowl, combine shredded chicken, chopped bacon, ranch dressing, mozzarella cheese, and green onions. Mix well to coat evenly.
- Spoon the filling mixture into the hollowed-out bread halves, pressing it down gently to pack it in.
- Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the top of the stuffed bread for added flavor.
- In a small bowl, mix melted butter with garlic powder and dried parsley. Brush this mixture over the top of the bread.
- Place the stuffed bread halves on a baking sheet and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Let the bread cool slightly before slicing and serving. Enjoy the gooey, savory flavors with every bite.
