Ingredients
For the Rolls
- 12 lasagna noodles
- 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
- 2 cups ricotta cheese
- 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese (divided)
- 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese (divided)
- 3 cups Alfredo sauce (divided)
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley (for garnish)
Instructions
- Prepare Noodles: Cook classic lasagna noodles according to package directions until al dente. Drain and lay flat on a clean surface. If using oven-ready noodles, no pre-cooking is needed.
- Prepare Filling: In a large bowl, combine shredded cooked chicken, ricotta cheese, 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Mix thoroughly until well combined.
- Prepare Alfredo Sauce: Have 3 cups of Alfredo sauce ready (homemade or high-quality jarred). Set aside 1.5 cups for the baking dish base. Add 1/2 cup of the Alfredo sauce to the chicken-ricotta mixture and mix well. The remaining 1 cup is for drizzling.
- Preheat Oven & Dish Prep: Preheat your oven to $375^circ F$ ($190^circ C$). Pour the reserved 1.5 cups of Alfredo sauce into the bottom of a 9×13-inch baking dish, spreading it evenly.
- Assemble Rolls: Lay one cooked lasagna noodle flat. Spread approximately 1/4 to 1/3 cup of the chicken and ricotta filling evenly over the entire surface of the noodle, leaving a small border on the short ends. Carefully roll up the noodle from one short end into a snug spiral.
- Arrange & Top: Place the rolled lasagna noodle, seam-side down, into the prepared baking dish. Repeat this process with the remaining noodles and filling, arranging all 12 rolls snugly in the dish. Drizzle any remaining 1 cup of Alfredo sauce over the tops of the rolls. Generously sprinkle the remaining 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese and 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese over everything.
- Bake Covered: Cover the baking dish tightly with aluminum foil. Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes.
- Bake Uncovered: Remove the foil and continue to bake for another 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese on top is melted, bubbly, and lightly golden brown. If desired, broil for 1-2 minutes for extra browning, watching carefully to prevent burning.
- Rest & Serve: Once out of the oven, let the lasagna rolls rest for about 5-10 minutes before serving. Garnish with a fresh sprinkle of chopped parsley. Serve hot and enjoy!
