Ingredients

Scale

Chicken Mixture

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

Dough & Cheese

  • 3 cups refrigerated biscuit dough (like 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 right temperature while you prepare the ingredients.
  2. Prepare the Chicken Mixture: In a large bowl, combine the shredded chicken, Alfredo sauce, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper, mixing thoroughly to evenly coat the chicken with the flavorful sauce and spices.
  3. Cut the Biscuit Dough: Take each biscuit from the refrigerated dough and cut it into quarters, creating bite-sized pieces ideal for layering in the monkey bread.
  4. Combine Ingredients: Gently toss the biscuit pieces with the chicken and Alfredo mixture to distribute the dough evenly and allow it to absorb some of the sauce.
  5. Add Cheese: Fold in the shredded mozzarella cheese along with half of the grated Parmesan cheese into the biscuit and chicken mixture to add creamy, cheesy goodness throughout.
  6. Assemble in the Pan: Grease a bundt pan thoroughly to prevent sticking, then layer the biscuit and chicken mixture evenly inside. Sprinkle the remaining Parmesan cheese on top for a golden crust.
  7. Bake: Place the bundt pan in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes until the bread is golden brown and cooked through, with bubbling cheese.
  8. Cool and Serve: Allow the monkey bread to cool for about 5 minutes to set, then carefully invert it onto a serving platter. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley for a burst of color and freshness before serving.

Notes

  • Use rotisserie chicken for a quick and flavorful shortcut.
  • If you prefer homemade Alfredo sauce, ensure it is thick enough to coat the chicken but not too runny.
  • Refrigerated biscuit dough makes this recipe quick and easy, but you can use homemade biscuit dough if you prefer.
  • Make sure to grease the bundt pan well to avoid sticking and ensure easy removal.
  • This dish is best served warm to enjoy the gooey cheese and soft biscuit texture.
  • Leftovers can be refrigerated for up to 3 days and reheated in the oven for best texture.
