  • Total Time: 45-50 minutes
  • Yield: 8 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 2 cups pre-cooked chicken, shredded or diced
  • 1 can (16 oz) Pillsbury biscuit dough or equivalent biscuit dough pieces
  • 1 cup Alfredo sauce
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 3 tablespoons butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon Italian herbs (such as oregano, basil, thyme blend)

Instructions

  1. Prep the Chicken and Sauce: Shred or dice the cooked chicken and mix it thoroughly with Alfredo sauce in a bowl until evenly coated.
  2. Cut and Coat the Biscuit Dough: Separate the biscuit dough into small bite-sized pieces. Toss them in a bowl with melted butter, garlic powder, and Italian herbs until well coated.
  3. Layer the Ingredients in the Pan: Grease a bundt pan or similar baking dish well. Begin layering by adding some biscuit pieces, followed by a portion of the chicken Alfredo mixture, then a sprinkle of shredded mozzarella and Parmesan cheese. Repeat layers until all ingredients are used, creating pockets of cheesy, creamy bread throughout.
  4. Bake to Perfect Golden Brown: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the pan inside and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the biscuit dough is puffed, golden brown, and cheese is melted and bubbly.
  5. Cool Slightly and Serve: Allow the monkey bread to cool for a few minutes to let the sauce thicken slightly, then carefully invert onto a serving plate. Serve warm and enjoy the pull-apart cheesy goodness.

Notes

  • Use room temperature ingredients to ensure even baking and perfect cheese melting.
  • Do not overcrowd the pan; layer ingredients loosely to allow heat circulation and a fluffy texture.
  • Thoroughly grease your baking pan for easy removal and clean pull-apart pieces.
  • Let the monkey bread rest briefly before serving to prevent a soggy bottom.
  • Experiment with different cheese blends like provolone or gouda for variety.
