Chicken Alfredo Lasagna Rolls have completely changed the way I think about weeknight comfort food. This recipe came to life one cozy evening when I had leftover rotisserie chicken and a sudden craving for something cheesy, creamy, and satisfying. I love lasagna, but the idea of rolling all the good stuff into individual portions felt not only fun but perfectly practical.

The smell alone as it bakes is enough to make you fall in love. The creamy Alfredo sauce bubbles around tender lasagna noodles wrapped around juicy chicken and cheese, creating the most irresistible golden topping. Each roll is like a personal bundle of warmth, filled with flavor and begging to be devoured.

Why You’ll Love This Chicken Alfredo Lasagna Rolls Recipe

You’ll love how easy these lasagna rolls are to assemble, even more so than a traditional layered lasagna. They are great for portion control, which makes serving simpler, and they reheat beautifully, keeping their shape and flavor. The Alfredo sauce brings a velvety, garlicky richness that blends perfectly with shredded chicken and melted mozzarella. This dish brings all the creamy, cheesy satisfaction of classic Italian comfort food, but with a fresh and fun twist that makes it feel special every single time.

Ingredients

Each ingredient in these Chicken Alfredo Lasagna Rolls has a purpose that ties the dish together in rich, comforting harmony.

Lasagna noodles are the structural base here, creating perfect spirals that hold the filling beautifully. I use the traditional kind, boiled until just tender so they don’t fall apart during rolling.

Shredded cooked chicken brings savory protein and heartiness. It’s the perfect way to repurpose leftovers or rotisserie chicken.

Ricotta cheese adds a creamy, smooth layer to the filling, giving each bite a soft and luscious texture.

Mozzarella cheese is essential for that irresistible melt and stretch factor, both inside the rolls and sprinkled generously on top.

Parmesan cheese sharpens the overall flavor with its salty, nutty kick, and works wonders when melted into the Alfredo sauce.

Homemade Alfredo sauce made with butter, heavy cream, garlic, and more Parmesan is the star. It wraps everything in creamy decadence.

Fresh parsley finishes the dish with a pop of green and freshness that balances the richness.

How to Make Chicken Alfredo Lasagna Rolls

Step 1: Cook the Noodles

Boil the lasagna noodles in salted water until al dente. Be gentle when handling them afterward so they stay intact for rolling.

Step 2: Mix the Filling

Combine the shredded chicken, ricotta, some mozzarella, and Parmesan in a large bowl. Season with a bit of salt, pepper, and garlic powder for extra flavor.

Step 3: Roll the Lasagna

Lay each noodle flat, spread the chicken mixture evenly across, and gently roll them up from one end. Place them seam-side down in a greased baking dish.

Step 4: Make the Alfredo Sauce

In a saucepan, melt butter and add minced garlic. Stir in heavy cream and simmer before adding Parmesan cheese. Let it thicken into a creamy sauce.

Step 5: Assemble the Dish

Pour some Alfredo sauce into the bottom of the baking dish. Nestle the lasagna rolls in and spoon the remaining sauce over the top. Sprinkle with mozzarella.

Step 6: Bake

Cover the dish with foil and bake at 375°F for about 25 minutes. Remove the foil and bake another 10 minutes until bubbly and golden.

Step 7: Garnish and Serve

Sprinkle with chopped parsley before serving hot. The rolls will be creamy, cheesy, and irresistible.

Recipe Variations and Possible Substitutions

One of the best things about Chicken Alfredo Lasagna Rolls is how adaptable they are. You can swap out the chicken for turkey or even shredded rotisserie-style tofu if you’re going for a vegetarian twist. For added veggies, wilted spinach or finely chopped broccoli blend seamlessly into the filling without overpowering the flavor.

If you’re looking for a lighter option, try cottage cheese in place of ricotta. It adds protein and keeps things creamy. For a dairy-free version, use plant-based cheeses and a cashew Alfredo sauce — the creaminess still shines through.

Not in the mood to make sauce from scratch? A good-quality jar of store-bought Alfredo sauce can definitely save time and still taste amazing.

Serving and Pairing Suggestions

These lasagna rolls make a rich and satisfying main dish, so I usually serve them with something light and fresh. A crisp green salad with a zesty vinaigrette cuts through the creaminess beautifully. Garlic bread or a slice of crusty Italian loaf works well to mop up that delicious sauce.

For drinks, a glass of chilled Chardonnay or a light sparkling water with lemon is all you need. If you’re putting together a bigger spread, add roasted veggies or a fruit salad for contrast.

Storage and Reheating Tips

To store leftovers, let the rolls cool completely and transfer them to an airtight container. They keep well in the fridge for up to four days. For freezing, wrap each roll individually in foil and place them in a freezer-safe bag. They’ll stay good for up to two months.

To reheat, bake covered at 350°F until heated through, or microwave individual portions. Add a splash of milk or extra Alfredo sauce if they seem a bit dry.
