Chicken Alfredo Lasagna Rolls Recipe
First, season chicken with cajun seasoning and a little salt and pepper. Toss to coat. You can cook with a little oil. I also like to add a few veggies to the sauce like spinach and mushrooms. Sauté and cook.
To make the alfredo sauce, sauté onions and garlic in a little oil. Simmer butter, cream cheese and cream. Mix and add the seasonings. You will need cajun seasoning, Italian seasoning and the right amount of salt and pepper. Squeeze in a tablespoon of lemon juice as well. Mix and simmer for about 3 minutes.
If you are using dried lasagna sheets, cook them al dente. Then add a little chicken alfredo mixture to each lasagna sheet and roll. Place this in a baking dish. Top with alfredo sauce and mozzarella.
Finally, bake and garnish with parsley.
