Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients
- 2 cups pre-cooked chicken, shredded or diced
- 1 can (16 oz) refrigerated biscuit dough
- 1 cup Alfredo sauce
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1/4 cup butter, melted
Instructions
- Prepare the Chicken and Sauce: Shred or dice your cooked chicken evenly, then combine it with the Alfredo sauce, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning in a mixing bowl, ensuring every piece is well-coated for maximum flavor.
- Cut and Coat the Biscuit Dough: Slice each biscuit into quarters to create bite-sized pieces. Toss the dough pieces in melted butter and a bit of garlic powder, so they develop a golden, flavorful crust while baking.
- Assemble the Monkey Bread Layers: In a greased bundt or tube pan, alternate layers of butter-coated biscuit pieces, chicken Alfredo mixture, and shredded mozzarella cheese, repeating until all ingredients are used.
- Add a Final Cheese Layer and Bake: Sprinkle Parmesan cheese on the top layer before baking, then put the pan in a preheated oven and bake for about 30-35 minutes until golden, bubbly, and cooked through.
- Cool Slightly and Serve: Allow the bread to cool for 5-10 minutes before inverting onto a serving plate to preserve its shape and facilitate easy pulling apart.
Notes
- Use fresh Alfredo sauce for best flavor and creaminess.
- Don’t over-stuff the pan to allow even rising and baking.
- Cut biscuit pieces evenly to ensure consistent cooking and texture.
- Let the bread rest slightly before serving to avoid filling spillage and enhance flavors.
- Grease your pan thoroughly to make releasing the bread easier and keep the crust intact.
