Ingredients

Units Scale

(Serves 6-8)

For the Roll-Ups:

  • 12 lasagna noodles, cooked al dente
  • 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded (rotisserie chicken works great)
  • 1 cup ricotta cheese
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 egg, lightly beaten
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

For the Garlic Parmesan Sauce:

  • 3 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 3 tbsp all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups milk (whole milk or 2%)
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

For Topping:

  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • Fresh parsley or basil, chopped (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

1. Preheat the Oven:

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.

2. Prepare the Roll-Up Filling:

  1. In a large bowl, combine shredded chicken, ricotta cheese, mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, egg, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.

3. Cook the Lasagna Noodles:

  1. Boil lasagna noodles in salted water until al dente. Drain and lay flat on a clean surface to prevent sticking.

4. Make the Garlic Parmesan Sauce:

  1. In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.
  2. Whisk in the flour and cook for 1-2 minutes to eliminate the raw flour taste.
  3. Slowly whisk in the milk and cook, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens (about 5 minutes).
  4. Remove from heat and stir in the Parmesan cheese. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

5. Assemble the Roll-Ups:

  1. Spread a thin layer of the garlic Parmesan sauce in the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
  2. Spread 2-3 tablespoons of the chicken filling evenly over each lasagna noodle. Roll the noodles up tightly and place them seam-side down in the baking dish.

6. Top and Bake:

  1. Pour the remaining garlic Parmesan sauce over the roll-ups.
  2. Sprinkle with mozzarella and Parmesan cheese.
  3. Cover with foil and bake for 20 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

7. Serve:

  1. Let the lasagna roll-ups cool for 5 minutes before serving.
  2. Garnish with fresh parsley or basil if desired, and serve warm with a side salad or garlic bread.

Notes

  • Make Ahead: Assemble the roll-ups and refrigerate for up to 1 day before baking.
  • Add Veggies: Include sautéed spinach, mushrooms, or chopped broccoli in the filling for added nutrition.
  • Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or microwave.
