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 and 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

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to ensure it’s hot and ready for baking the bread.
Prepare the Chicken Mixture: In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded cooked chicken with Alfredo sauce, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Mix well to evenly coat the chicken.
Cut the Biscuit Dough: Open the refrigerated biscuit dough and cut each biscuit into quarters to create bite-sized pieces.
Combine Ingredients: Add the biscuit pieces to the chicken mixture, tossing gently to coat the dough in the flavorful sauce and seasonings.
Add Cheese: Fold in the shredded mozzarella cheese and half of the grated Parmesan cheese to the mixture, ensuring the cheese is well distributed.
Assemble in the Pan: Grease a bundt pan thoroughly. Layer the biscuit and chicken mixture evenly into the pan. Sprinkle the remaining Parmesan cheese on top for a golden crust.
Bake: Place the bundt pan in the preheated oven and bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the monkey bread is golden brown and cooked through.
Cool and Serve: Allow the monkey bread to cool in the pan for about 5 minutes. Carefully invert it onto a serving platter and garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving.

Notes

Using rotisserie chicken saves time and adds extra flavor.
You can make your own Alfredo sauce if preferred for a homemade touch.
Ensure the biscuit dough pieces are evenly coated to prevent dry spots.
Use a well-greased bundt pan to avoid sticking and ease removal.
This dish is best served warm for optimal gooeyness and flavor.
Leftovers can be reheated in the oven wrapped in foil to retain moisture.
