Instructions

Prepare the Chicken and Sauce: Shred or dice the pre-cooked chicken evenly and combine it in a mixing bowl with Alfredo sauce, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning. Mix thoroughly to coat the chicken pieces evenly, ensuring a flavorful filling.
Cut and Coat the Biscuit Dough: Slice each biscuit into quarters to create bite-sized pieces. Toss these dough pieces in the melted butter along with a sprinkle of garlic powder to help develop a golden, flavorful crust when baked.
Assemble the Monkey Bread Layers: Grease a bundt or tube pan well. Start layering by alternating butter-coated biscuit pieces, the chicken Alfredo mixture, and shredded mozzarella cheese. Repeat these layers until all ingredients have been used up, building a deliciously layered pull-apart bread.
Add a Final Cheese Layer and Bake: Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the top layer of the assembled monkey bread. Place the pan into a preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes until the bread is golden brown, bubbly, and cooked through.
Cool Slightly and Serve: Remove from the oven and allow the monkey bread to cool for 5-10 minutes. Then carefully invert it onto a serving plate to retain its shape and enable easy pulling apart. Serve warm for best enjoyment.

Notes

You can use rotisserie chicken or leftover cooked chicken for convenience.
Using refrigerated biscuit dough saves time and creates a fluffy texture.
Ensure the pan is well-greased to prevent sticking.
Allowing the monkey bread to cool slightly before serving helps maintain its shape for easy pulling pieces apart.
Optional: Add chopped parsley or extra Italian seasoning for garnish and more flavor.
