Everything you need to know about this recipe
Chicken Alfredo Lasagna Rolls blend classic Italian lasagna layering with the creamy Alfredo sauce that became popular in the United States after the early 20th‑century immigration wave. The roll‑up technique reflects American comfort‑food innovation, turning a traditional baked pasta into a handheld, family‑friendly dish.
In Italy, rolled pasta dishes such as "cannelloni" are typically filled with ricotta, spinach, or meat and baked in tomato sauce. The chicken alfredo version substitutes the classic ricotta filling with sautéed chicken and uses a rich cream‑based sauce instead of a pure tomato ragù, reflecting American taste preferences.
It is usually served hot from the oven, garnished with fresh parsley and a sprinkle of extra Parmesan. A simple green salad or garlic bread often accompanies the dish, making it a complete family dinner.
The dish is popular for weekend family meals, holiday gatherings like Thanksgiving or Christmas, and casual pot‑luck events because it can be made ahead and feeds a crowd with minimal fuss.
Pairs nicely with a crisp Caesar salad, roasted vegetables such as broccoli rabe, or a light antipasto platter featuring cured meats, olives, and marinated artichokes.
Traditional ingredients include fresh lasagna sheets, chicken breast, heavy cream, Parmesan, and mozzarella. Acceptable substitutes are no‑boil lasagna sheets, half‑and‑half for cream, and provolone or cheddar in place of mozzarella.
Common errors include over‑cooking the lasagna sheets, drying out the chicken by cooking too long, and using too much sauce which makes the rolls soggy. Also, failing to cover the dish early in baking can cause the rolls to dry out.
The cream‑based sauce provides a silky texture that coats the chicken and cheese, creating the classic Alfredo mouthfeel. It also balances the acidity of the diced tomatoes, giving a richer flavor profile suited to the roll format.
Yes. Assemble the rolls, cover tightly with plastic wrap, and refrigerate up to 24 hours. Keep the sauce separate until just before baking, or store it in a sealed container and combine when ready.
