Description

Chicken Alfredo Roll Ups combine tender shredded chicken and creamy Alfredo sauce wrapped in lasagna noodles, baked to golden perfection with a cheesy crust. This comforting Italian-American dish makes an easy and impressive main course perfect for weeknight dinners or special occasions.


Ingredients

Pasta

  • 8 cooked lasagna noodles

Filling

  • 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
  • 1 cup Alfredo sauce
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste

Topping

  • 1 cup Alfredo sauce
  • ½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese

Garnish

  • Chopped fresh parsley


Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare Dish: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish to prevent sticking and ensure even cooking.
  2. Prepare Noodles and Filling: Lay the cooked lasagna noodles flat on a clean working surface. In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, 1 cup of Alfredo sauce, 1 cup mozzarella cheese, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to evenly distribute the flavors.
  3. Assemble Roll Ups: Evenly spread about 2 to 3 tablespoons of the chicken mixture onto each noodle, then carefully roll each noodle tightly from one end to the other to encase the filling.
  4. Arrange in Baking Dish: Place each roll up seam-side down in the prepared baking dish to keep them closed during baking and maintain their shape.
  5. Add Sauce and Toppings: Pour the remaining Alfredo sauce evenly over the roll ups. Sprinkle the top with the remaining mozzarella and Parmesan cheese to create a bubbly, golden crust when baked.
  6. Bake Covered: Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld and the cheese to melt thoroughly.
  7. Bake Uncovered: Remove the foil and continue baking uncovered for an additional 10 to 15 minutes until the sauce is bubbly and the cheese topping turns golden and slightly crispy.
  8. Serve and Garnish: Let the roll ups cool slightly before garnishing with chopped fresh parsley. Serve warm, ideally paired with a side salad or garlic bread for a complete meal.

Notes

  • Use rotisserie chicken for a quick and convenient option.
  • Add sautéed spinach or mushrooms to the filling for extra flavor and nutrients.
  • Pairs wonderfully with a fresh side salad or garlic bread to complement the creamy pasta.
