# Expert Advice:

  • Its basically two comfort foods collided into one incredible meal
  • The bread soaks up all that velvety sauce in ways regular pasta never could

02 -
  • Don't skip the garlic butter layer on the bread first, it creates a flavor foundation that makes the whole thing sing
  • Let the Alfredo sauce thicken slightly off the heat before spreading, otherwise it might make the bread soggy
  • Room temperature ingredients blend more smoothly into the sauce
03 -
  • Grate your own Parmesan cheese, pre-grated cheese has anti-caking agents that prevent smooth melting
  • If the sauce seems too thick, add another splash of milk before combining with the chicken
  • Let the bread cool for at least 3 minutes before slicing, it holds together much better
