  10. Spoon and spread some of the marinara sauce on the bottom of the bowl, then layer on mozzarella, Parmesan cheese, chicken strips, marinara, remaining mozzarella, Parmesan, chicken strips, marinara, and remaining Parmesan.
  11. Place the cap of the bread bowl on top.
  12. Wrap the bread bowl in foil, then weigh it down with a heavy object for 30 minutes.
  13. In a small bowl, mix together butter, garlic, parsley, and Parmesan cheese.
  14. Remove the foil from the bread bowl and brush the garlic butter mixture evenly over it.
  15. Bake for 30 minutes.
