Steps:
- For the chicken: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Sprinkle the chicken breast with the Italian seasoning, salt and pepper. Heat the oil in a pan and cook the chicken on medium heat until it registers 165 degrees F in the middle, about 5 minutes on each side. Cube the chicken and set aside.
- For the alfredo sauce: In the same pan that the chicken was cooked in, melt the butter over low heat. Add the minced garlic and cook until the garlic has softened, about 2 minutes. Add the flour and whisk until smooth. (Be careful not to brown the roux.) Add the milk and heavy cream a little at a time, making sure to whisk until smooth after each addition, and let thicken, about 5 minutes. Add the nutmeg and pepper. Whisk to combine. Turn off the heat and mix in 2 1/2 cups Parmesan. Stir until all the cheese is melted. Add salt and pepper to taste.
- Layer 1 cup of the alfredo sauce on the bottom of a 9-by-13-inch baking pan. Add 3 lasagna noodles. Spread another cup of alfredo, a third of the chicken, a sprinkle of parsley and a quarter of the mozzarella. Then add 3 more noodles and repeat the layering two more times, ending with alfredo sauce, the remaining mozzarella and 1/2 cup shredded Parmesan.
- Bake until browned on top, 40 to 50 minutes. Remove the lasagna from the oven and sprinkle with parsley. Let the lasagna rest for 10 minutes before cutting into it.

Steps:
- Over a long sheet of saran wrap, lay 8 of the bacon strips down back to back. Lifting up every other strip, fold about 1-inch (2 cm) the bacon back on itself. Lay another slice of bacon perpendicular to the strips and fold the flaps back over the horizontal strip of bacon. Repeat with the rest of the bacon until a tight weave has formed. Set aside in the fridge.
- In a medium saucepan, add the butter and garlic over medium heat, cooking until aromatic, about 30 seconds.
- Add the cream, and bring to a boil.
- Add in the Parmesan, parsley, salt, and pepper, stirring constantly until the cheese has melted and there are no lumps remaining.
- Pour half of the mixture over the shredded chicken, reserving the other half to use a sauce in the end.
- Mix the chicken with the sauce until thoroughly combined.
- On a separate sheet of saran wrap, lay down the lasagna noodles, overlapping them slightly.
- Spread the chicken mixture over the noodles, making sure that you leave about a 1-cm (½ inch) gap at the bottom so the noodles have room to roll on themselves.
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Place the cheese slices evenly across the chicken, then press the spinach into a row centered between the cheese slices.
- While one hand keeps the spinach flat, use the other hand to lift the saran wrap up and over, causing the noodles to roll on themselves. Make sure to roll tightly until the entire thing has come together into a neat rolled bundle.
- Transfer the lasagna roll to the bottom of the bacon weave, and repeat the saran wrap rolling process until the bacon has tightly and completely wrapped the lasagna roll.
- Unwrap and transfer to a baking tray.
- Bake for about 25 minutes until the bacon is starting to get crispy but not too dark.
- Cool for about 15 minutes, then transfer the roll to a cutting board.
- Slice generous 1-inch (2 cm) thick portions, then serve with the remaining alfredo sauce.
- Enjoy!

Steps:
- Place chicken, seasoned salt, and 1 tablespoon garlic in a pot and pour enough broth over top to cover. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Cover, reduce heat to medium, and simmer until chicken is cooked through, about 10 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Transfer chicken to a bowl and shred when cool enough to handle. Discard broth.
- Meanwhile, bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook lasagna noodles in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 8 minutes. Rinse with cold water, drain, and lay out on aluminum foil to cool.
- Mix ricotta cheese, egg, and 1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning together in a large bowl; set aside.
- Combine Alfredo sauce, Parmesan cheese, remaining 1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning, and pepper in a pot over medium-low heat. Cook, stirring frequently, until hot, about 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, heat oil in a skillet over medium heat; stir in onion and mushrooms. Saute until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes. Add spinach and remaining 1 tablespoon garlic; cook until spinach is tender, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and add spinach mixture to the ricotta mixture. Add tomato and mix well.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Put enough sauce in a 9x13-inch casserole dish to cover the bottom. Place 3 lasagna noodles on top of sauce, followed by all of the ricotta mixture, 3 more noodles, all of the shredded chicken, 1/2 of the mozzarella cheese, 3 remaining noodles, the remaining sauce, and the remaining mozzarella. Cover with aluminum foil.
- Bake in the preheated oven until hot and bubbly, about 45 minutes.

Tips:
- Use fresh ingredients whenever possible. Local and organic ingredients are often the best choice, as they are more flavorful and nutritious.
- Don't be afraid to experiment with different flavors. Alfredo sauce is traditionally made with Parmesan cheese, but you can try adding other cheeses, such as mozzarella or Gruyère, to create a different flavor profile.
- Cook the lasagna noodles al dente. This means that they should still be slightly firm to the bite. If you overcook the noodles, they will become mushy and the lasagna will be less enjoyable to eat.
- Be generous with the sauce. Alfredo sauce is the star of this dish, so don't be afraid to use plenty of it. Make sure that each layer of lasagna is coated in sauce, and that there is a generous layer of sauce on top.
- Bake the lasagna until it is golden brown and bubbly. This usually takes about 30 minutes. If you are using a glass baking dish, you may need to bake the lasagna for a few minutes longer.
Conclusion:
Chicken Alfredo lasagna is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is a great way to use up leftover chicken, and it is also a freezer-friendly meal. So next time you are looking for a hearty and flavorful meal, give chicken Alfredo lasagna a try. You won't be disappointed!
