DIRECTIONS
STEP 1: RANCH SAUCE
Add the sour cream, mayo, fresh dill, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, dried parsley, salt, and buttermilk to a small bowl and mix.
STEP 2: BACON
Add to a preheated deep pan or skillet and cook over medium heat.
Remove from pan and set aside.
STEP 3: CHICKEN
Season the chicken on all sides with garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and salt.
Add to pan with cooking oil.
Cook on medium heat for a few minutes on each side until the chicken gets a crispy crust and fully cooks through (170°F internal temperature).
Remove cooked chicken from pan, tent with foil, and set aside for a 10-minute rest.
Slice chicken into 1/2-inch wide strips.
STEP 4: GARLIC BUTTER
In a bowl, combine the softened butter, minced garlic, and half of the chopped parsley, and set aside.
STEP 5: FRENCH BREAD
Slice the loaf in half longways and remove some of the bread in the middle. This will make room for the filling in the next step.
The removed bread can be saved for another recipe like homemade croutons.
STEP 6: BUILD
Layer the bread with garlic butter, ranch sauce, shredded cheese, sliced chicken, bacon, and top with the remaining chopped parsley.
STEP 7: BAKE
Bake in the oven at 350°F for 10-15 minutes until cheese melts and starts to get golden brown.
Slice.
