- Microwave 2 tablespoons butter and 1 tablespoon minced garlic in bowl until bubbling, 1 to 2 minutes.

Brush the two halves of ½ large loaf soft Italian bread with butter mixture. Reassemble loaf and wrap in foil.

Gather edges of foil and parchment over tomatoes and crimp to seal, leaving small opening. Sprinkle chicken with remaining 1 teaspoon salt.

Cook chicken and bread until chicken is charred and cooked through and bread is toasted, 8 to 12 minutes, flipping as needed for even browning (peel foil to check bread color). Cook tomatoes until they burst, 15 to 20 minutes.
- Slice chicken and bread. Divide chicken, tomatoes, and 1 (8 ounce) quartered, room temperature ball burrata cheese among individual plates. Sprinkle with remaining 1 tablespoon parsley. Serve with bread.
