How to Make Cheesy Chicken Lasagna Roll Ups
Start by pre-cooking your chicken breast for 45 minutes at 350 degrees if you’re using un-cooked chicken, or you can use rotisserie chicken.
Then, you’ll saute your butter, red onion, red bell pepper, minced garlic, and tomato in a large skillet over medium heat for 3-5 minutes.
Next, add in your flour and stir for around 2-3 minutes until its combined with your remaining butter. You’ll then slowly whisk in your chicken broth a little at a time and bring everything to a boil over medium high heat until your sauce starts to thicken. After it’s thickened, add in your salt, pepper, and heavy cream and mix well.
You’ll then spray a large 9×13 baking dish with cooking spray and place about 1/4 of your sauce at the bottom of the pan.
Then, combine your chicken breast with 16 oz. of your mozzarella cheese and mix well.
Next, you’ll lay your cooked lasagna noodles out flat and fill with 1/12 of the chicken mixture and roll the lasagna noodle up from the short side and place into your baking dish. You’ll repeat 12 times.
Next, pour your remaining sauce over the top of your lasagna roll ups and top with your remaining mozzarella and cheddar cheese.
Finally, bake at 350° F for 35 minutes, or until cheese is bubbly and starting to brown on top. Enjoy! This is a fun one.
