Ingredients
- 8–10 lasagna noodles (regular or oven-ready)
- 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded or finely chopped (rotisserie recommended)
- 1 cup ricotta cheese
- 2 cups mozzarella cheese, shredded, divided
- 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, finely grated, divided
- 2 cups Alfredo sauce (jarred or homemade)
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder (or 2 cloves fresh garlic, minced)
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
- Crushed red pepper flakes, optional
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook lasagna noodles according to package directions (about 8-10 minutes), drain, and lay flat on parchment or a clean towel.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine shredded chicken, ricotta, 1 cup mozzarella, 1/4 cup Parmesan, egg, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Mix until evenly combined. If dry, add a tablespoon or two of Alfredo sauce.
- Spread about 1/4 cup Alfredo sauce on the bottom of a 9×13-inch baking dish.
- Working with one noodle at a time, spread 2-3 tablespoons of filling along the noodle, leaving a little space at the end. Roll up gently from the short end and place seam-side down in the baking dish. Repeat with all noodles and filling.
- Pour remaining Alfredo sauce (about 1 1/2 cups) evenly over the roll ups. Sprinkle with remaining mozzarella (1 cup) and Parmesan (1/4 cup), covering noodles fully.
- Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 20 minutes. Remove foil and bake another 8-10 minutes, until cheese is bubbling and golden. Broil for 1-2 minutes at the end for extra color, if desired.
- Let cool for 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with chopped parsley and serve hot.
Notes
For gluten-free, use gluten-free lasagna noodles and check Alfredo sauce labels. Pre-shredded cheese is convenient, but shredding your own melts better. Add spinach, mushrooms, or other veggies for variation. Let roll ups rest before serving for easier slicing. Leftovers reheat well and can be frozen before baking.
