Additional Tips for Making This Recipe Better

Here’s what I learned after making this recipe a few times. These tips can help make your roll ups even more delicious!

  • Use fresh pasta sheets if you can find them. They roll easier and don’t tear like dried noodles sometimes do.
  • Shred your own cheese – Pre-shredded cheese has added starch and doesn’t melt as well.
  • Let the roll ups rest for 5 minutes before serving. This keeps the filling intact and easier to slice or serve.
  • Add spinach or mushrooms to the filling for an extra veggie boost.
  • Use rotisserie chicken – It’s quick, flavorful, and saves so much prep time!

Tasty Twists and Flavor Variations

Looking to customize these roll ups to fit your needs or just want to try something new? You can totally make this recipe your own.

  • Dairy-Free Version: Use dairy-free Alfredo sauce, plant-based ricotta, and vegan mozzarella.
  • Low-Carb Option: Swap lasagna noodles with zucchini or eggplant slices.
  • Add Extra Flavor: Mix sun-dried tomatoes, spinach, or even a bit of pesto into the cheese mixture.
  • Spicy Kick: Add red pepper flakes to the Alfredo sauce for a little heat.

Kitchen Tools You’ll Need

Here’s what I used while making this dish. Everything is pretty standard, but having the right tools makes things much easier!

  • Large pot – To boil the lasagna noodles.
  • Skillet – To quickly heat the chicken with olive oil.
  • Mixing bowl – For blending the cheese and sauce mixture.
  • Baking dish (9×13-inch) – To hold and bake the roll ups.
  • Measuring cups/spoons – To get the ingredient amounts just right.
  • Spatula or spoon – To spread the filling onto the noodles.

How to Serve Chicken Alfredo Lasagna Roll Ups

Once baked to cheesy perfection, you want your roll ups to look as good as they taste. Here’s how I love to serve them. Place 2–3 roll ups on a plate, spoon over a little extra Alfredo sauce, and sprinkle with fresh parsley or extra Parmesan.

  • Serve it with a side salad or garlic bread for a full meal.
  • If you like seafood flavors, you can also serve it alongside something like my Firecracker Salmon Recipe for a creative dinner pairing.
  • And don’t forget a chilled glass of white wine!

How to Store Chicken Alfredo Lasagna Roll Ups

Keeping leftovers fresh is super easy. I usually make extra just so I have lunch for the next day!

  • Storing in the Fridge: Let the roll ups cool completely, then store in an airtight container. They’ll stay fresh for up to 3 days in the refrigerator.
  • Freezing: To freeze, wrap each roll individually in plastic wrap, then store in a zip-lock bag or freezer container. They’ll last for up to 2 months.
  • Reheating: To reheat, place in a baking dish, cover with foil, and warm in the oven at 350°F for about 15–20 minutes. If frozen, thaw overnight in the fridge before reheating.

More Useful Tips for Making It Just Right

Want your Chicken Alfredo Lasagna Roll Ups to turn out even better? Here are some more helpful ideas:

  • Choose the right noodles: Go for traditional lasagna noodles, not the no-boil kind. You want them soft and flexible.
  • Go heavy on the sauce: Alfredo tends to thicken in the oven, so don’t be shy. Add extra sauce on top before baking.
  • Don’t overfill the noodles: Too much filling makes them hard to roll and messy in the dish.
  • Bake uncovered: This helps the cheese on top get golden and bubbly.
  • Let them rest after baking: It helps everything set and makes serving easier.

Ingredients
  

  • 9 lasagna noodles – Cook until al dente; don’t overboil or they’ll tear during rolling.
  • 1 tbsp olive oil – Adds richness and prevents chicken from drying while reheating.
  • 1 lb cooked chicken shredded – Use rotisserie chicken for extra flavor and ease.
  • 1 15 oz jar Alfredo sauce – Go for high-quality or homemade for best creaminess.
  • 1/2 cup ricotta cheese – Gives a creamy slightly tangy layer to the filling.
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese – Freshly grated for sharper richer flavor.
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley – Adds freshness and color to balance the richness.
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder – Enhances the sauce with a subtle savory touch.
  • 1/4 tsp salt – Light seasoning especially helpful if using low-sodium Alfredo.
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper – Balances the creaminess with a bit of depth.
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese – Melts beautifully and gives a golden finish.

Method
 

  1. Fill a large pot with salted water and bring it to a boil. Cook the lasagna noodles according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and lay them flat on a clean surface or parchment paper to prevent sticking. Avoid overcooking as soft noodles may tear during rolling.
  2. While the noodles are cooling, heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the shredded cooked chicken just to warm it up—about 2–3 minutes. In a separate mixing bowl, combine the Alfredo sauce, ricotta cheese, Parmesan, chopped parsley, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until everything is smooth and evenly blended.
  3. Take each noodle and spread about 2 tablespoons of the Alfredo mixture across its surface. Spoon a small amount of chicken over the sauce. Gently roll the noodle from one end to the other, keeping the filling inside. Repeat with all noodles until all are filled and rolled.
  4. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish. Place each roll seam-side down into the dish. Pour the remaining Alfredo sauce evenly over all the roll ups. Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese on top. Bake uncovered for 20–25 minutes or until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and lightly golden on top.
  5. Once out of the oven, let the roll ups rest for about 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with extra parsley if desired. Pair it with garlic bread or a fresh green salad for a complete meal. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container for up to 3 days in the refrigerator.
