Lasagna rolls with chicken: A delicious twist on casserole classics

There’s definitely a lot going on in this casserole. The lasagna rolls hide a delicious chicken filling, all wrapped in a sauce made from cream cheese, heavy cream, garlic, and a generous handful of grated cheese. It might not be the most diet-friendly dish, but it’s definitely worth the indulgence. I don’t know anyone who would refuse a portion of hot, delicious chicken pasta casserole.

This time, the lasagna sheets became the base for delicious chicken rolls instead of a traditional layered casserole. The preparation is really simple, and the dish looks impressive enough to be confidently served at family gatherings.

Ingredients:

• 2 chicken breasts
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon pepper
• 1 teaspoon sweet paprika
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon oregano
• 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
• 7 ounces grated mozzarella
• 8 sheets of lasagna pasta

Sauce:

          
• 4 garlic cloves
• 4 ounces cream cheese
• 1/2 cup heavy cream
• 1 teaspoon oregano
• 1/2 teaspoon sweet paprika
• 1/3 cup Parmesan cheese

Preparation method:

Step 1: Cut the chicken breasts into cubes. Add vegetable oil, oregano, sweet paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper, and mix thoroughly to coat the meat evenly with the spices. Put it in a pan and sauté.

Step 2: Start preparing the sauce. In the same pan used for the chicken (do not wash it), add cream cheese, minced garlic, sweet paprika, oregano, heavy cream, and grated Parmesan. Heat the mixture, stirring constantly.

Step 3: Parboil the lasagna sheets. Lay a sheet on the countertop, spread a portion of the sauce on it, sprinkle with grated mozzarella and chicken pieces, and then roll it up. Grease the bottom of an ovenproof dish with sauce and place the pasta rolls in it. Pour the remaining sauce over and sprinkle with grated cheese. Put it in the oven preheated to 392°F.

Step 4: After baking, divide into portions and transfer to plates. It tastes best when warm, and the cheese is deliciously stretchy. Enjoy!
