Ingredients
Scale
Roll-Ups
- 8 lasagna noodles
- 1 lb. cooked shredded chicken
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 3 cups freshly grated mozzarella cheese, divided
Sauce
- 2 cups Alfredo sauce, divided
Optional Garnish
- Chopped parsley
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Spray a 9×13-inch baking dish with non-stick spray and set it aside for later use.
- Cook Noodles: Boil the lasagna noodles in a large pot of water according to the package directions until al dente. Drain the noodles and carefully lay them out on parchment paper to cool and dry, preventing them from sticking together.
- Prepare Filling: In a medium bowl, combine half of the Alfredo sauce with the cooked shredded chicken, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, pepper, and 1 cup of the mozzarella cheese. Stir until all ingredients are well mixed.
- Assemble Roll-Ups: Spread the chicken Alfredo mixture evenly over each lasagna noodle. Starting at one end, roll each noodle carefully over the filling. Place each roll-up seam-side down in the prepared baking dish.
- Add Toppings: Pour the remaining Alfredo sauce evenly over the top of the roll-ups. Sprinkle the remaining 2 cups of mozzarella cheese evenly on top.
- Bake: Bake the dish uncovered for 20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and slightly golden.
- Garnish and Serve: Remove from the oven and sprinkle with chopped parsley if desired. Serve warm and enjoy your delicious chicken Alfredo roll-ups!
Notes
- If you prefer, fresh lasagna noodles can be used and baked slightly longer to ensure tenderness.
- You can substitute cooked rotisserie chicken for convenience.
- For a lower calorie version, use light Alfredo sauce and part-skim mozzarella cheese.
- Make sure to spread the filling evenly to prevent roll-ups from unrolling during baking.
- These roll-ups can be prepared in advance and baked just before serving.
- Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
