Ingredients
- 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
- 1 cup sweet corn (canned or frozen)

Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Prepare the Toast Cups: Use a rolling pin to flatten each slice of bread. Cut out circles using a cookie cutter or a glass that fits into a muffin tin. Press the circles into the muffin tin to form cups.
- Brush with Olive Oil: Lightly brush the bread cups with olive oil to help them crisp up during baking.
- Bake the Cups: Bake the bread cups in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.

- Serve: Garnish with chopped parsley if desired and serve warm.
