How to Make Chicken Alfredo Monkey Bread
Crafting this pull-apart bread is a breeze, especially with the simplicity of store-bought ingredients. Begin by cutting the pizza dough into 1/2-inch pieces, shaping each into a ball. Place the dough balls into a spacious bowl.
Top the dough balls with olive oil, Italian seasoning, minced garlic, 1/2 cup of mozzarella cheese, and 1/2 cup of parmesan cheese. Using your hands, ensure the dough balls are thoroughly coated with these flavorful ingredients. Once prepared, it’s time to layer and bake the bread.
In a prepped bundt pan, layer 1/2 cup of mozzarella cheese, 1/2 cup of parmesan cheese, 1/2 of the coated pizza dough balls, 1/2 of the rotisserie chicken, and 1/2 of the alfredo sauce. Repeat the layers with another 1/2 cup mozzarella, 1/2 cup parmesan, the remaining pizza dough balls, the remaining chicken, and the rest of the alfredo sauce. Complete the creation with the remaining mozzarella and parmesan cheeses.
Bake the Chicken Alfredo Monkey Bread for 45-50 minutes at 375°F, or until golden brown and the cheese has achieved a tantalizing melt. Once baked, invert the bundt pan onto a sizable plate or platter. Allow the bread to cool for a few minutes before serving, creating a delightful appetizer to be savored and shared.
