Lasagna Noodles
- 10 Lasagna Noodles
Filling
- 3 cups Chicken, cooked and shredded
- 16 ounces Ricotta Cheese
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Italian Seasoning
- 1/2 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon Garlic powder
Sauce and Cheese
- 1.5 cups Alfredo Sauce, jarred
- 2 cups Mozzarella, shredded
- 1 cup Parmesan, shredded
Instructions
- Cook Lasagna Noodles: Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the lasagna noodles and cook according to package instructions until they are al dente. Drain the noodles and lay them flat on a piece of parchment paper or a flat surface to prevent sticking.
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius) to prepare for baking the lasagna rolls.
- Prepare Filling: In a large bowl, combine the shredded cooked chicken, ricotta cheese, salt, Italian seasoning, onion powder, and garlic powder. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are evenly combined.
- Assemble Rolls: Spread about 3 ounces of the chicken mixture evenly over each lasagna noodle, leaving about one-third of the noodle uncovered at one end. Spoon 1 to 2 tablespoons of Alfredo sauce on top of the chicken mixture.
- Roll Noodles: Starting at the end with the filling, carefully roll up each noodle toward the bare end, creating tight rolls.
- Prepare Baking Dish: Pour 1/4 cup of Alfredo sauce into the bottom of a casserole dish to prevent sticking and add flavor.
- Place Rolls in Dish: Arrange the lasagna rolls seam side down in the casserole dish in a single layer.
- Add Sauce and Cheese: Pour the remaining Alfredo sauce evenly over the top of the rolled noodles. Sprinkle shredded mozzarella and Parmesan cheese generously over the top.
- Bake Covered: Cover the casserole dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld and the sauce to heat through.
- Bake Uncovered: Remove the foil and continue baking for an additional 10 minutes or until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and starting to brown slightly.
- Serve: Remove from oven and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your creamy and savory Chicken Alfredo Lasagna Rolls!
Notes
- For best results, spread the chicken mixture evenly and do not overfill the noodles to ensure easy rolling.
- You can use homemade Alfredo sauce if preferred for a fresher flavor.
- Make sure not to overcook the noodles initially; they should be firm enough to roll without breaking.
- Leftovers can be refrigerated for up to 3 days and reheated in the oven or microwave.
- For a crispier topping, broil the lasagna rolls for 2–3 minutes after baking.
