Why You'll Love These Chicken Alfredo Rollups
Aside from the rich, creamy flavor and cheesy goodness, these Chicken Alfredo Lasagna Rollups are surprisingly quick and easy to make. They may look like a fancy, made-from-scratch dish, but thanks to a couple of smart shortcuts, you can get them on the table in no time. Using rotisserie chicken saves you the step of cooking and shredding your own, and a quality store-bought Alfredo sauce (Trader Joe's is the best) brings all the flavor without the fuss. No one will guess you didn't make it all from scratch! Maybe you're throwing together a comforting meal on a busy weeknight or craving something warm and hearty on a slow weekend, these rollups are a must!
What You Need
- Chicken- We use a rotisserie chicken to make this easier but any cooked chicken will work.
- Lasagna- Make sure to cook up one or two extra lasagna sheets incase you have any that break.
- Cheese- You'll need ricotta cheese, mozzarella, and parmesan.
- Pantry seasonings- Dried parsley, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
- Parsley
How To Assemble These Rollups
- Combine filling in a mixing bowl---chicken, ricotta cheese, mozzarella, parmesan, alfredo sauce, and seasonings.
- Cook lasagna noodles and lay out on parchment paper in a single layer.
- Assemble lasagna sheets with some chicken filling down each noodle and roll up.
- Place lasagna rolls in a baking dish that has some alfredo sauce on the bottom.
- Finish rolls with the remaining alfredo sauce and top with mozzarella cheese.
- Bake in the oven covered for 25-minutes then bake uncovered for another 10-minutes.
- Broil the top if you want it browned. Top with parsley and serve.
Tips for Success and Variations
- Don't overcook the lasagna sheets so it's easier to roll and prevent breaking.
- Use all the alfredo sauce. It will look like a lot but will be the perfect amount once the rolls are cooked.
- Sneak in veggies like cooked spinach or mushrooms to the filling.
