Chicken Alfredo Lasagna Rolls

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Coat a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray; set aside

Step 2

Bring a large pot of water to boil; throw in a good pinch of salt and add your lasagna noodles. Cook until al dente according to package directions. (After draining, drizzle with a bit of olive oil to prevent sticking and drape them over the colander or lay them flat on a baking sheet.)

Step 3

In the meantime, make the Alfredo sauce:Add the butter and cream to a large nonstick saute pan, over medium-low heat; whisk until butter has melted.

Step 4

Add in the minced garlic, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, pepper, the nutmeg and crushed red pepper flakes; whisk until combined and smooth.

Step 5

Bring to a gentle simmer (do not boil) and cook for 3-4 minutes, whisking constantly, until it starts to thicken.

Step 6

Stir in the parmesan cheese just until melted and the sauce is smooth. Take off the heat.

Step 7

Make the Filling and Assemble:Spread 1/2 cup of the Alfredo sauce on the bottom of the prepared baking dish.

Step 8

In a large bowl, stir together the ricotta, egg, and 1 cup of mozzarella until combined. Fold in the chicken and 1/4 cup of the Alfredo sauce until combined.

Step 9

Spread 1/9th of the mixture (about 1/3 cup each) onto the length of each lasagna noodle and roll up in a jelly-roll fashion.

Step 10

Arrange rolls, seam side down, in the baking dish. Top with remaining 1 cup of Alfredo sauce, and remaining 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese.
