Main Ingredients
- 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded (rotisserie chicken recommended)
- 1 cup Alfredo sauce (store-bought or homemade)
- 3 cups refrigerated biscuit dough (such as Pillsbury Grands)
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure it is ready for baking the monkey bread.
- Prepare Biscuit Dough: Cut the refrigerated biscuit dough into quarters to create bite-sized pieces, facilitating even distribution and layering.
- Mix Chicken and Seasonings: In a bowl, combine shredded cooked chicken with Alfredo sauce, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Mix well to thoroughly coat the chicken.
- Layer Monkey Bread: Grease a bundt pan or tube pan. Layer pieces of biscuit dough with spoonfuls of the chicken Alfredo mixture, mozzarella cheese, and Parmesan cheese, repeating until all ingredients are used.
- Bake: Place the pan into the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the biscuit dough is golden brown and fully cooked through.
- Cool and Garnish: Allow the monkey bread to cool for 5-10 minutes before carefully inverting it onto a serving plate. Sprinkle chopped fresh parsley on top for a fresh, vibrant finish.
- Serve: Serve warm and pull apart pieces to enjoy the cheesy, creamy chicken Alfredo goodness baked inside each bite.
Notes
- You can substitute shredded rotisserie chicken with leftover cooked chicken breasts or thighs.
- Feel free to use homemade Alfredo sauce for a richer flavor.
- Adding a pinch of red pepper flakes to the chicken mixture can give a subtle kick.
- Make sure to grease the pan well to prevent sticking.
- Leftovers can be reheated in the oven or microwave, but are best enjoyed fresh.
- To make it Gluten Free, use gluten-free biscuit dough brand.
