Ingredients
- 2 pieces Cooked chicken breast
- 1 Baguette
- 200 grams Cream cheese
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 tablespoon Fresh chives, chopped
- 0.5 teaspoons Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Step 2
Slice the baguette into 24 thin pieces, about 1/2 inch thick, and arrange the slices on a baking sheet.
Step 3
Brush each baguette slice lightly with olive oil on both sides. Bake for 7-10 minutes, or until golden and crispy. Set aside to cool.
Step 4
In a mixing bowl, shred the cooked chicken breasts into small pieces using two forks.
Step 5
In another bowl, mix the cream cheese, chopped parsley, chopped chives, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper until smooth and well combined.
Step 6
Spread a thin layer of the herbed cream cheese mixture onto each baguette slice.
Step 7
Top each canapé with a small heap of shredded chicken, pressing gently to help it adhere to the cream cheese.
Step 8
Garnish with a sprinkle of chopped parsley or chives for presentation, if desired.
Step 9
Serve immediately or store in the refrigerator for up to 2 hours before serving.
