Chicken Alfredo Monkey Bread Ingredients
- 1 can (16 oz) refrigerated biscuit dough
- 1 cup cooked shredded chicken
- 1 cup Alfredo sauce
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat and Prepare Pan: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a bundt pan thoroughly with non-stick spray to ensure easy release of the bread after baking.
- Cut the Biscuit Dough: Open the biscuit dough can and cut each biscuit into quarters to create bite-sized pieces that will easily layer in the bundt pan.
- Make Garlic Butter Mixture: Melt the unsalted butter in a small saucepan or microwave-safe bowl, then stir in the minced garlic, Italian seasoning, and freshly ground black pepper to infuse it with flavor.
- Combine Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the biscuit pieces, shredded chicken, Alfredo sauce, shredded mozzarella, grated Parmesan, and the garlic butter mixture. Toss gently until everything is evenly coated.
- Assemble in Bundt Pan: Spoon the mixture into the prepared bundt pan, pressing down lightly to pack the ingredients but still leaving room for the bread to rise and bake evenly.
- Bake: Place the bundt pan in the preheated oven and bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the biscuit dough is fully cooked through. If the top starts browning too quickly, tent with foil to prevent burning.
- Cool and Serve: Remove the pan from the oven and allow the monkey bread to cool for 5 to 10 minutes. This resting time helps the bread maintain its structure. Then invert it onto a serving platter so it comes out in one piece. Serve warm and enjoy the gooey, cheesy pull-apart goodness.
Notes
- Tent the bread with foil if the top browns too quickly during baking to prevent burning.
- Allow the bread to rest for several minutes before inverting to keep its structure intact.
- This recipe works well with pre-cooked rotisserie chicken for convenience.
- For a spicier kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the garlic butter mixture.
- Serve with extra Alfredo sauce or marinara sauce for dipping if desired.
