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 reaches the correct temperature for baking the monkey bread evenly.
Prepare the Chicken Mixture: In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded cooked chicken with Alfredo sauce, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Mix thoroughly to evenly coat the chicken with the flavorful sauce and seasonings.
Cut the Biscuit Dough: Take the refrigerated biscuit dough and cut each biscuit into quarters, creating smaller pieces that will be easy to toss and bake.
Combine Ingredients: Add the biscuit pieces into the chicken mixture bowl and gently toss them together, ensuring every piece of dough is coated with the saucy chicken mixture.
Add Cheese: Fold in the shredded mozzarella cheese and half of the grated Parmesan cheese into the mixture, distributing the cheese throughout for gooey bites.
Assemble in the Pan: Grease a bundt pan well to prevent sticking. Layer the combined dough, chicken, and cheese mixture into the pan evenly. Sprinkle the remaining Parmesan cheese on top for a golden cheesy crust.
Bake: Place the bundt pan in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes until the biscuit dough is cooked through and the top is golden brown and bubbling with cheese.
Cool and Serve: Allow the monkey bread to cool in the bundt pan for about 5 minutes. Then invert it onto a serving platter and garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving to add a fresh, vibrant touch.

Notes

Using rotisserie chicken adds great flavor and saves time.
You can substitute store-bought Alfredo sauce with homemade for fresher taste.
Make sure to grease the bundt pan well to avoid sticking.
Serve warm for the best cheesy, gooey experience.
Add red pepper flakes or chopped jalapeños for a spicy kick if desired.
