How to Make It
1. Step
Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Line a baking sheet with foil and grease with nonstick spray.
2. Step
Add the Spam to a medium nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Cook for 4–5 minutes, without disturbing, until the Spam cubes are golden brown on the bottom. Cook for another 4–5 minutes, stirring occasionally, or until most of the Spam is golden brown. Transfer to a bowl and set aside.
3. Step
Melt the butter to the same skillet over medium heat. Add the red onion, garlic, chives, and salt and stir to combine, then remove the pan from the heat.
4. Step
Using a sharp knife, carefully cut the bread about halfway through into 1-inch (2.54 cm) slices, stopping ½ inch (1.24 cm) from the bottom of the loaf to keep intact. Turn the loaf 90° and repeat cutting in the opposite direction.
5. Step
Stuff the Swiss cheese and Spam between the bread slices. Transfer the loaf to the prepared baking sheet and pour the onion and garlic butter evenly over the top.
6. Step
Grease another sheet of foil with nonstick spray, then cover the loaf. Bake for 30 minutes, or until the cheese is melted. Remove the foil and bake for another 5 minutes, until the cheese is bubbling and golden brown on top.
7. Step
Remove the bread from the oven and transfer to a serving platter. Serve hot.
