Ingredients You’ll Need

These essentials come together to create a dish that feels restaurant-worthy, yet is absolutely doable even on a busy weeknight. Each ingredient adds its own unique touch to the flavor, texture, or irresistible color of your Chicken Alfredo Roll-Ups.

Lasagna noodles: Wide and sturdy, perfect for rolling up and holding all the creamy filling firmly in place.
Cooked shredded chicken: Tender, protein-rich, and an ideal vessel for soaking up seasoning and Alfredo sauce. A rotisserie chicken makes things even easier!
Alfredo sauce: The heart of this dish! Use your favorite store-bought jar or go the extra mile with homemade—either way, it brings unctuous richness.
Shredded mozzarella cheese: Melts beautifully for that classic, cheesy pull and gooey finish.
Grated Parmesan cheese: Delivers savory depth and a salty punch that elevates the whole bake.
Garlic powder: Adds warmth and rounds out the flavor with a gentle, familiar kick.
Italian seasoning: A fragrant mix that ties everything together, bringing herby brightness to every bite.
Salt and pepper: Essential for seasoning and balancing all the creamy, cheesy notes.
Chopped parsley: For garnish! Adds fresh color and a lovely final touch to your roll-ups.

How to Make Chicken Alfredo Roll-Ups

Step 1: Prepare Your Pan and Noodles

Start by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly greasing a 9×13-inch baking dish with a little olive oil or butter. Cook your lasagna noodles according to package instructions until al dente—soft but still pleasantly firm, since they’ll bake again. Once drained, lay them flat on a clean surface like a cutting board or sheet pan so they don’t stick together.

Step 2: Mix the Creamy Chicken Filling

Grab a large bowl and gently toss together your shredded chicken, 1 cup of Alfredo sauce, ½ cup of mozzarella, the garlic powder, Italian seasoning, plus a sprinkle of salt and pepper. Make sure the chicken is thoroughly coated and cheesy—this filling is packed with flavor in every forkful!

Step 3: Roll Up the Noodles

Spoon about ¼ cup of the savory chicken mixture onto each noodle and use the back of the spoon to spread it into an even layer, keeping a little space at each end. Carefully roll each noodle tightly so it holds its shape, then arrange them seam-side-down in your greased baking dish, keeping things snug but not squished.

Step 4: Add Sauce and Cheese

Pour the remaining Alfredo sauce generously over the top of your rolls, making sure every noodle edge gets a bath in that creamy goodness. Sprinkle the last of the mozzarella and all of the Parmesan cheese evenly on top for the ultimate bubbly, golden finish.

Step 5: Bake to Perfection

Cover the dish with foil to keep the moisture in and bake for 20 minutes. Next, remove the foil and bake another 10 minutes, or until the cheese is gloriously melted, bubbling, and lightly golden brown around the edges. That irresistible aroma is your cue that dinner is nearly ready!

Step 6: Add the Finishing Touch

Once out of the oven, give your Chicken Alfredo Roll-Ups a generous shower of chopped parsley for a burst of fresh color and flavor. Let them stand a few minutes—they’ll slice and serve more easily when not piping hot.

How to Serve Chicken Alfredo Roll-Ups

Garnishes

A sprinkle of bright green parsley not only makes these roll-ups look irresistible but adds a slight peppery freshness. For extra flair, grate a little more Parmesan on top or add a twist of cracked black pepper just before serving. Lemon zest is a fun, zippy option too!

Side Dishes

Chicken Alfredo Roll-Ups love a simple, balanced side. Think crisp green salads dressed with vinaigrette, steamed or roasted broccoli, or garlic bread that’s perfect for mopping up any extra sauce. For something lighter, try a tomato-cucumber salad or some sautéed spinach.

Creative Ways to Present

Serve your roll-ups arranged in a single layer on a bright platter with extra Parmesan and parsley. If you want an extra wow-factor, place each one in a small individual baking dish for a restaurant-style touch, or slice them into rounds for bite-sized party appetizers.

Make Ahead and Storage

Storing Leftovers

Chicken Alfredo Roll-Ups reheat like a dream, so don’t worry about making a full dish. Store any extras tightly covered in the fridge for up to 3 days. Keep the sauce and pasta together in the same dish so the noodles stay moist and flavorful.

Freezing

For longer storage, these roll-ups freeze wonderfully! Place cooled roll-ups in an airtight, freezer-safe container, with a little extra Alfredo sauce on top to prevent dryness. Label and freeze up to 2 months. Thaw overnight in the fridge before reheating for best results.

Reheating

To reheat, cover with foil and bake at 350°F until heated through, about 20 minutes. For a quick lunch, microwave individual portions with a splash of water or extra sauce to keep everything creamy and luscious.

FAQs

Can I use a different pasta instead of lasagna noodles?

Lasagna noodles are ideal because of their width and sturdiness, but in a pinch, you can use cooked cannelloni or manicotti tubes and stuff the filling inside. Just adjust the baking time as needed!

What type Main Course

Rotisserie chicken is a fantastic shortcut and adds delicious flavor, but any cooked, shredded chicken breast or thigh meat will work. Leftover grilled chicken is great, too.

Is homemade Alfredo sauce better than store-bought?

Homemade Alfredo sauce gives you total flavor control, but don’t hesitate to use a quality store-bought version for convenience—either will result in irresistible Chicken Alfredo Roll-Ups.

Can I add vegetables to the filling?

Absolutely! Finely chopped fresh spinach or steamed broccoli are both delicious and add a pop of color and nutrients to the filling. Just make sure to squeeze out any extra moisture from veggies first.

What’s the best way to prevent my roll-ups from sticking together?

Give your baking dish a good coating of nonstick spray or butter, and make sure to place your roll-ups seam-side down with just a bit of space between each. A little extra sauce around the edges doesn’t hurt, either!

Final Thoughts

If you’re ready to shake up your pasta routine with something creamy, cheesy, and all-out comforting, Chicken Alfredo Roll-Ups deserve a spot on your table. They’re destined to become a family favorite, so gather your ingredients and let the rolling begin—it’s time to create a dinner everyone’s going to remember!
