Step 1

Preheat the oven to 375 F. Place a large sheet of aluminum foil onto large baking sheet.

Step 2

In a medium bowl place softened cream cheese and sour cream, stir with a fork just to combine. Add chopped chicken, avocado, shredded cheese and sliced green onion. Stir until evenly combine.

Step 3

Slice the French bread into thirds and using a sharp knife shallow out each piece of bread.

Step 4

Stuff the inside of bread with chicken-avocado mixture. Press it as much as you can so the bread will be filled generously. But do this carefully or the bread might fall apart.

Step 5

Slice each piece of stuffed bread into 1 inch slices, then place them on a baking sheet lined with foil. Arrange them tightly side-by-side.

Step 6

In a small bowl stir together melted butter, grated Parmesan, minced garlic and chopped parsley. Brush the top and sides of bread. Drizzle remaining mixture on top.

Step 7

Wrap the foil over the French bread.

Step 8

Bake for 15–18 minutes, until the cheese has melted and the bread starting to brown.
