Ingredients

Scale

Chicken Mixture

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

Bread and Cheese

  • 3 cups refrigerated biscuit dough (large flaky kind like Pillsbury Grands)
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese, divided

Garnish

  • 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to ensure the biscuit dough cooks evenly and achieves a golden brown top.
  2. Combine Chicken and Sauce: In a large bowl, mix the shredded chicken, Alfredo sauce, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper thoroughly so the chicken is well coated with the sauce.
  3. Prepare Biscuit Dough: Separate the refrigerated biscuit dough and cut each biscuit into four equal pieces using a knife or kitchen shears to increase surface area for sauce absorption.
  4. Mix Dough with Chicken Mixture: Add the biscuit quarters to the chicken mixture and gently toss with a spatula, ensuring each piece is lightly coated without overmixing.
  5. Add Cheeses: Fold in the shredded mozzarella and half of the Parmesan cheese into the mixture for a gooey, cheesy texture throughout.
  6. Prepare Bundt Pan: Generously grease a bundt pan to prevent sticking and transfer the chicken and dough mixture into it, spreading evenly. Sprinkle the remaining Parmesan cheese over the top for a crispy crust.
  7. Bake: Place the bundt pan in the preheated oven and bake for 25 to 30 minutes until golden brown on top and a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  8. Cool and Serve: Let the monkey bread cool in the pan for 5 minutes to set, then invert onto a serving platter. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley and serve warm.

Notes

  • Using pre-cooked rotisserie chicken saves time and adds rich flavor.
  • Grating your own mozzarella cheese is preferable for better texture and melt.
  • Freshly grated Parmesan cheese enhances flavor more than pre-grated options.
  • Do not overmix the biscuit dough with the chicken mixture to maintain fluffiness.
  • Allowing the bread to cool slightly before flipping prevents it from breaking apart.
