Ingredients

Scale

Chicken Mixture

  • 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded (rotisserie chicken recommended)
  • 1 cup Alfredo sauce (store-bought or homemade)
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Bread and Cheese

  • 3 cups refrigerated biscuit dough (such as Pillsbury Grands)
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Garnish

  • 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to ensure it reaches the perfect baking temperature while you prepare the dish.
  2. Prepare the Chicken Mixture: In a large bowl, combine the shredded cooked chicken with Alfredo sauce, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
  3. Cut the Biscuit Dough: Take the refrigerated biscuit dough and cut each biscuit into quarters to create bite-sized pieces that will easily bake into the monkey bread.
  4. Combine Ingredients: Add the biscuit dough pieces into the chicken and Alfredo mixture. Toss gently to coat the dough evenly without tearing it apart.
  5. Add Cheese: Fold in the shredded mozzarella cheese and half of the grated Parmesan cheese to the mixture, ensuring cheese is well distributed throughout.
  6. Assemble in the Pan: Grease a bundt pan thoroughly to prevent sticking. Layer the biscuit and chicken mixture evenly inside the pan. Sprinkle the remaining Parmesan cheese on top to form a delicious crust as it bakes.
  7. Bake: Place the bundt pan in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes or until the monkey bread is golden brown and cooked through.
  8. Cool and Serve: Remove the pan from the oven and allow the monkey bread to cool for about 5 minutes. Then carefully invert the pan onto a serving platter. Garnish with fresh chopped parsley for a pop of color and freshness before serving.

Notes

  • Rotisserie chicken adds convenience and flavor but any cooked, shredded chicken will work.
  • Store-bought Alfredo sauce works well, but homemade Alfredo will enhance the richness.
  • You can add a pinch of crushed red pepper flakes for a spicy kick.
  • Make sure to grease the bundt pan well to prevent sticking.
  • This dish is best served warm for the gooey cheese and soft biscuit texture.
  • Leftovers can be reheated in the oven at 350°F for 10-15 minutes to regain freshness.
