Instructions

Preheat and Prepare Noodles: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Cook the lasagna noodles in boiling water until al dente, then drain them carefully and set aside to cool slightly.
Make Filling Mixture: In a large bowl, combine the shredded cooked chicken, ricotta cheese, 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella, 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Mix until well blended.
Assemble Rolls: Spread an even layer of the chicken and cheese mixture over each lasagna noodle, then carefully roll them up. Place the rolls seam-side down in a prepared baking dish to keep them intact during baking.
Add Sauce and Cheese: Pour the Alfredo sauce evenly over the rolled noodles. Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup mozzarella and 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese on top for a cheesy crust.
Bake Covered: Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes to heat through and meld the flavors.
Finish Baking Uncovered: Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes to allow the cheese to brown slightly and become bubbly.
Garnish and Serve: Once out of the oven, let the dish rest for a few minutes. Garnish with fresh parsley to add a pop of color and freshness before serving.

Notes

For extra flavor, use freshly shredded Parmesan cheese instead of pre-grated.
Make sure not to overcook the noodles; they should be just al dente as they will continue cooking in the oven.
Leftovers keep well and can be reheated in the oven or microwave.
You can use rotisserie chicken to save prep time.
To make this dish gluten-free, substitute the lasagna noodles with gluten-free noodles.
