  7. Toast Buns: Toast the sandwich rolls or hamburger buns to your preference.
  8. Assemble Sandwiches: Spoon the creamy chicken mixture onto the bottom half of each roll, topping them with a generous sprinkle of grated Parmesan cheese.
  9. Garnish and Serve: Garnish with chopped fresh parsley and cover with the top halves of the rolls.

Notes

  • For a lighter version, use reduced-fat cheese and Alfredo sauce.
  • You can prepare the chicken mixture in advance and reheat before serving.
  • Try adding some crushed red pepper flakes for a spicy kick.
  • Substitute sandwich rolls with whole wheat buns for added fiber.
  • Homemade Alfredo sauce can enhance the flavor if time permits.
