Ingredients You’ll Need

  • 9 uncooked lasagna noodles: Traditional lasagna noodles work best; be careful not to overcook them to maintain their structural integrity.
  • 14.5 ounces garlic Alfredo sauce: Creamy and rich, this sauce adds a delicious depth of flavor. Feel free to substitute with homemade Alfredo if you’re feeling adventurous.
  • 1 pound cooked, shredded chicken: Use rotisserie chicken for an easy option or cook your own chicken breast for a healthier touch.
  • ½ teaspoon oregano: Adds an earthy flavor to the filling; dried oregano is perfect for this dish, but fresh can be used for a brighter taste.
  • 1 teaspoon garlic salt: Enhances the overall flavor; can be adjusted to taste or substituted with regular salt if preferred.
  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese: Essential for that stretchy, gooey texture on top. Consider mixing in some Parmesan for additional flavor.

How to Make Chicken Alfredo Roll Ups

  1. Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Prepare an 8×8 inch baking pan by spraying it with non-stick spray. Pour about ½ cup of Alfredo sauce on the bottom of the pan and set it aside.
  2. Cook the Lasagna Noodles: In a large pot, bring water to a boil and cook the lasagna noodles until they’re al dente. Don’t let them get too soft, as they will continue cooking in the oven. Once cooked, drain the noodles and rinse them with cold water to prevent them from sticking together.
  3. Mix the Filling: While the noodles are cooking, grab a mixing bowl and combine 1 cup of the Alfredo sauce, 1 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese, the shredded chicken, garlic salt, and oregano. Mix everything until well combined and set aside.
  4. Assemble the Roll-Ups: Take a lasagna noodle and lay it flat on a clean surface. Gently blot the water off the noodles with a paper towel to absorb excess moisture. Spread 1/9 of the chicken mixture evenly over the noodle, then carefully roll it up from one end to the other. Place the roll-up, seam side down, into the sauce-covered pan. Repeat this process with the remaining noodles and filling mixture.
  5. Bake the Dish: Once all roll-ups are in the pan, pour the remaining Alfredo sauce over the top ensuring each roll is well covered. Sprinkle with the rest of the mozzarella cheese. Place them in the oven and bake for 30 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden.

Storing & Reheating

After enjoying your Chicken Alfredo Roll Ups, any leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to 3 days. You can also freeze them for a quick meal later—just be sure to wrap them tightly and store them in a freezer-safe container for up to 3 months. When you’re ready to enjoy, simply reheat in a preheated oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for about 20-25 minutes until warmed through. Keep in mind that the texture may slightly change after freezing, but refreshing them in the oven helps return some of that creamy goodness.

Chef’s Helpful Tips

  • Avoid overcooking the lasagna noodles; they should be slightly firm as they will bake further.
  • If you have leftover roast chicken or turkey, use that for the filling; it saves time and adds great flavor.
  • For additional flavor, sprinkle some Italian seasoning or fresh herbs on top before baking.
  • Try making these roll-ups a day in advance; simply cover and refrigerate before baking the next day.
  • Keep the sauce handy; if the roll-ups dry out a bit while baking, pour a little extra sauce over them before serving.
  • For a fun twist, incorporate some spinach or cooked mushrooms in the filling for added nutrition and flavor.

The blend of garlic Alfredo sauce, chicken, and cheesy mozzarella enveloped in lasagna noodles creates a dish that everyone will want second helpings of. Feel free to experiment to make it your own—add veggies or spices as you desire!

Making Chicken Alfredo Roll Ups is more than a meal; it’s an invitation to gather around the table and share smiles. So, grab your ingredients, crank up the oven, and get ready to enjoy a comforting dish that’s sure to please!
