Ingredient Notes
- Lasagna Noodles – Cook until al dente for easy rolling.
- Shredded Chicken – Rotisserie chicken works great for convenience.
- Ricotta Cheese – Adds creaminess to the filling. You can substitute with cottage cheese for a lighter option.
- Mozzarella & Parmesan Cheese – Melty, cheesy goodness on top!
- Alfredo Sauce – Use homemade or store-bought for a rich, creamy base.
- Garlic & Italian Seasoning – Enhances the flavor of the filling.
Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Cook the Noodles
Boil the lasagna noodles according to package instructions. Drain and lay them flat on a parchment-lined surface to prevent sticking.
2. Prepare the Filling
In a bowl, mix shredded chicken, ricotta cheese, 1 cup mozzarella, Parmesan, garlic, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper.
3. Assemble the Roll Ups
Spread a thin layer of Alfredo sauce in a baking dish. Take each noodle, spread the chicken mixture evenly, and roll it up. Place seam-side down in the dish.
4. Top with Sauce and Cheese
Pour the remaining Alfredo sauce over the roll ups and sprinkle with the rest of the mozzarella cheese.
5. Bake to Perfection
Cover with foil and bake at 375°F for 25 minutes. Remove foil and bake for another 10 minutes until the cheese is golden and bubbly.
Expert Tips for the Best Roll Ups
- Don’t overfill – A thin layer of filling makes rolling easier.
- Use fresh Parmesan – It melts better and gives a richer flavor.
- Let them rest – Allow a few minutes after baking so the filling stays intact when serving.
