Steps
Slice the chicken breasts in half lengthwise so they are an even thickness.
Season both sides of the chicken with paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
Heat olive oil in a pan over medium-high heat. Cook chicken 4-5 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through (internal temperature of 165°F (74 °C) / 74°C (165 °F)).
Remove the chicken from the pan and slice into thin strips. Set aside.
In a small bowl, mix the softened butter with minced garlic, chopped parsley, and a pinch of salt until well combined.
Slice the bread loaf in half lengthwise and spread the garlic butter evenly on the cut sides.
In a saucepan, sauté the chopped onion for 1-2 minutes until soft.
Add the grated garlic to the onions and cook for 30-60 seconds until fragrant.
Stir in the heavy cream, white wine, Parmesan, oregano, paprika, chili flakes, sundried tomatoes, salt, and pepper.
Simmer the sauce for 3-4 minutes until slightly thickened. Remove from heat.
Spoon a layer of the Marry-Me sauce on top of the garlic buttered bread.
Sprinkle the grated mozzarella generously over the sauce.
Arrange the sliced chicken strips evenly over the cheese.
Drizzle a little extra sauce on top of the chicken. Reserve any remaining sauce for dipping.
To cook in an Air Fryer: Bake at 355°F (180 °C) / 180°C (350 °F) for 7-9 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
To cook in an Oven: Bake at 375°F (190 °C) / 190°C (375 °F) for 20 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Let the bread rest for 1-2 minutes. Top with fresh chopped parsley and serve with the extra sauce on the side.
Notes
Save remaining Marry-Me sauce for dipping. You can use any bread you prefer, though ciabatta or a French baguette works best for holding the toppings.
