Lasagna Rolls
- 12 lasagna noodles
- 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
- 2 cups ricotta cheese
- 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese, divided
- 3 cups Alfredo sauce
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley (for garnish)
- Prepare the Noodles: Boil the lasagna noodles in salted water until they are al dente, about 8-10 minutes. Drain the noodles carefully and lay them flat on a clean kitchen towel to prevent sticking and to cool.
- Mix the Filling: In a large mixing bowl, combine shredded cooked chicken, ricotta cheese, 1 cup of shredded mozzarella, grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Stir well until all ingredients are thoroughly mixed.
- Assemble the Rolls: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Spread a thin layer of Alfredo sauce evenly on the bottom of a baking dish to prevent sticking. Lay one lasagna noodle flat, then spread about 1/4 cup of the chicken and cheese filling evenly over the noodle. Roll the noodle tightly and place it seam-side down in the prepared baking dish. Repeat with remaining noodles and filling.
- Top with Sauce and Cheese: Pour the remaining Alfredo sauce evenly over the assembled rolls. Sprinkle the remaining 1 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese evenly on top of the rolls for a cheesy crust.
- Bake: Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes. Remove the foil, then bake for an additional 15-20 minutes until the sauce is bubbly and the cheese is melted and golden.
- Garnish and Serve: Allow the rolls to cool slightly for 5-10 minutes after baking. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley for added color and freshness. Serve warm and enjoy your delicious Chicken Alfredo Lasagna Rolls!
Notes
- Cook noodles al dente to prevent them from becoming too soft during rolling and baking.
- Use fresh shredded chicken from a rotisserie or cooked breasts for convenience and flavor.
- You can prepare the filling a day ahead and refrigerate to save time.
- Covering the lasagna rolls while baking keeps them moist; remove the foil towards the end to brown the cheese.
- For a lighter version, use part-skim ricotta and reduced-fat mozzarella.
