Directions

1. Cook the Lasagna Noodles: Cook the lasagna noodles according to the package instructions, drain, and set aside.
2. Prepare the Alfredo Sauce: In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add garlic and sauté for 1 minute. Add heavy cream, salt, pepper, and basil. Bring to a simmer and cook for 3-5 minutes until it thickens. Stir in Parmesan cheese and set aside.
3. Prepare the Filling: In a bowl, mix together the shredded chicken, ricotta cheese, and 1 cup of mozzarella cheese.
4. Assemble the Rolls: Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Spread a small amount of Alfredo sauce in the bottom of a baking dish. Lay a lasagna noodle flat, spread the chicken and cheese mixture along the noodle, then roll it up tightly. Place the roll in the baking dish. Repeat for all noodles.
5. Bake: Pour the remaining Alfredo sauce over the rolls, then top with the remaining mozzarella cheese. Bake for 25-30 minutes until bubbly and golden.
