Chicken Alfredo Rollups


I found this recipe on mmmcafe blog. Its a delicious and fun version of Chicken Alfredo mixed with Lasagna. It was easy to prepare and declared "another success" by my husband.

Ingredients
9 Lasagna Noodles
2 1/2 cups Alfredo Sauce
2 cups cooked, shredded chicken
2 cups mozzarella cheese
garlic salt
oregano

Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Cook chicken. I always prefer to boil chicken if I'm going to shred it. Its super easy to shred the chicken if you have a Kitchenaid or other stand mixer. Using the beater, just drop the chicken in, turn the mixer on and in a couple of minutes, you have perfectly shredded chicken!

Meanwhile, in a 7x7 pan, use about a quarter of a cup of alfredo sauce and coat the bottom of the dish. Set aside.

While chicken is cooking, boil water in a large pot. Cook lasagna noodles until al dente. I cooked a few extra in case any noodles broke, which was good since two did! When noodles are cooked, drain and rinse with COLD WATER. This prevents the noodles from sticking to each other. Lay the noodles out on papertowels and pat dry. Cover each noodle with 2 tbsp of alfredo sauce. Spread the chicken out evenly over the noodles then sprinkle with oregano and garlic salt. Top with cheese.

Carefully roll up each noodle and place in dish with alfredo sauce, seam side down. The noodles fit in pretty tight. Cover noodles with enough alfredo sauce to cover entire dish and sprinkle with cheese. I used less sauce and cheese than was asked and it tasted great. Bake for 30 minutes or until cheese is melted.
