For the Alfredo Sauce:
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 cups heavy cream
- 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg (optional, for added flavor)
How to Make Chicken Alfredo Lasagna Rolls
1. Cook the Lasagna Noodles
- Boil a large pot of salted water and cook the lasagna noodles until al dente.
- Drain them and rinse with cold water to stop the cooking process, then lay them flat on parchment paper to prevent them from sticking.
2. Prepare the Alfredo Sauce
- In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat.
- Add the minced garlic and cook for about 1 minute, until fragrant.
- Pour in the heavy cream and bring to a simmer, stirring occasionally.
- Stir in the Parmesan cheese and continue to cook until the sauce is smooth.
- Season with salt, pepper, and nutmeg if using. Set the sauce aside.
3. Prepare the Chicken Filling
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked shredded chicken, ricotta cheese, 1 cup of shredded mozzarella, grated Parmesan, egg, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, and salt and pepper.
- Mix well until everything is fully combined.
4. Assemble the Lasagna Rolls
- Spread a small amount of the Alfredo sauce on the bottom of a 9×13-inch baking dish.
- Take a lasagna noodle, spread about 2 tablespoons of the chicken mixture over the noodle, and roll it up tightly.
- Place the rolled-up lasagna seam-side down in the baking dish.
- Repeat with the remaining noodles and chicken mixture.
5. Top with Alfredo Sauce and Cheese
- Pour the remaining Alfredo sauce over the lasagna rolls, making sure they’re all covered.
- Sprinkle the remaining shredded mozzarella cheese on top for a cheesy finish.
6. Bake
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake for 25 minutes.
- Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10–15 minutes until the cheese is bubbly and golden.
Tips for Success
- Prep Ahead: You can cook the chicken and make the Alfredo sauce ahead of time, then assemble the lasagna rolls when you’re ready to bake.
- Use Rotisserie Chicken: This shortcut makes the recipe even quicker and adds great flavor to the filling.
- Add Veggies: Add spinach, mushrooms, or even zucchini to the chicken mixture for extra nutrition and flavor.
