Cheesy garlic bread with chicken parmigiana
150g dried spaghetti pasta
100g butter, melted
2 garlic cloves, crushed
2 tbsp chopped fresh continental parsley leaves
18cm cob loaf
400g jar Barilla Napoletana pasta sauce, warmed
255g (2 1/2 cups) coarsely grated three cheese mix
Fresh basil leaves, to serve
crumbed chicken rissoles
2 slices white bread, crusts removed
125ml (1/2 cup) milk
500g chicken mince
40g (1/2 cup) shredded parmesan
1 green shallot, finely chopped
1 garlic clove, crushed
2 tbsp chopped fresh continental parsley leaves
4 eggs
40g (1/4 cup) plain flour
125g (2 1/2 cups) panko breadcrumbs
Vegetable oil, to shallow-fry
Step 1
To make the rissoles, line 2 baking trays with baking paper.
Combine bread and milk in a bowl. Soak for 5 minutes.
Squeeze bread to release excess milk. Discard milk and place bread in a bowl.
Add mince, parmesan, shallot, garlic, parsley and
1 egg to the bowl. Mix until well combined. Roll tablespoonfuls of the mixture
into 30 balls and place on 1 lined tray. Place in the fridge for 30 minutes or
until firm.
Step 2
Place the flour and breadcrumbs on
separate plates. Whisk remaining eggs in a bowl. Lightly coat a ball in flour,
then dip in the egg and then coat in breadcrumbs. Place on remaining lined tray
and flatten slightly. Repeat with the remaining balls. Place in the fridge for
30 minutes to chill.
Step 3
Meanwhile, preheat oven to 200C/180C fan forced. Cook
the pasta in a large saucepan of boiling water following packet
directions or until al dente. Drain and return to saucepan, cover and keep
warm.
Step 4
Add enough oil to a large frying pan to come 5mm up the side
of the pan. Heat over medium heat. Cook the rissoles, in batches, for 2-3
minutes each side or until they are golden. Drain.
Step 5
Line a baking tray with baking paper. Combine butter, garlic and parsley in
a bowl. Cut the top third off the cob. Scoop out bread inside, leaving a
2cm-thick shell. Cut 12 slits halfway down around the edge of the cob. Place
cob on prepared tray. Tear removed inside bread into large croutons. Place
around cob on tray. Brush garlic butter inside and on top of the cob and over
the torn bread. Sprinkle 2 cups of the cheese inside cob, pressing
some into slits on the side. Bake for 2 minutes or until cheese starts to melt.
Step 6
Reserve 125ml (1/2 cup) of the pasta sauce. Add the
remaining pasta sauce to the cooked pasta. Spoon the pasta into the cob.
Step 7
Line a baking tray with baking paper. Place rissoles on
tray. Spoon reserved pasta sauce over rissoles. Top with the remaining cheese.
Bake the trays at the same time for 8-10 minutes or until the cheese is melted.
Step 8
Top cob with rissoles and sprinkle with basil. Serve
extra rissoles and garlic croutons on the side.
