RECIPE Preparation
  1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
  2. Cut the baguette on the bias into 16 slices a little thicker than ¼-inch. Lay slices in a single layer on a baking sheet.
  3. Remove the skin from the chicken confit and discard. Remove the meat from the bones and shred or chop.
  4. In a bowl, stir together softened cream cheese, sour cream, and hot sauce until evenly combined. Stir in shredded chicken and half of the chives until evenly mixed.
  5. Spoon a generous helping of the chicken mixture onto each of the baguette slices, smoothing edge to edge. Sprinkle each toast with shredded cheese, then remaining chives.
  6. Bake until chicken mixture is warmed through and cheese is melted and bubbly, about 10-12 minutes.
  7. Cool for about 5 minutes before serving.
