Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 pieces Lasagna noodles
- 2 cups Cooked shredded chicken
- 1.5 cups Ricotta cheese
- 2 cups Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 0.5 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 large Egg
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Dried Italian seasoning
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 3 cups Marinara sauce
- 0.25 cup Fresh basil leaves (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray or a small amount of olive oil.
Cook the lasagna noodles according to the package instructions, until al dente. Drain and lay the noodles out flat on parchment paper to prevent sticking.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, ricotta cheese, 1 cup of mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, egg, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.
Spread 1 cup of marinara sauce evenly over the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
Take one lasagna noodle and spread about 3 tablespoons of the chicken and cheese mixture evenly over its surface. Roll the noodle tightly from one end to the other to form a roll.
Place the rolled noodle seam-side down in the baking dish on top of the marinara sauce. Repeat with the remaining noodles and filling.
Once all the rolls are in the dish, pour the remaining 2 cups of marinara sauce over the top, making sure all the rolls are evenly covered.
Sprinkle the remaining 1 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese over the top of the sauce.
Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes.
Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the cheese on top is melted and bubbly.
Remove from the oven and let the lasagna rolls rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Garnish with fresh basil leaves, if desired, and serve hot.
