Description
These Chicken Alfredo Zucchini Roll Ups are a cheesy, comforting dinner made with tender zucchini, shredded chicken, creamy Alfredo sauce, mozzarella, and Parmesan. This easy baked dish comes together quickly for a satisfying low-carb meal.
Ingredients
- 1 large thick zucchini
- 2 cups shredded chicken, rotisserie chicken works great
- 2 cups Alfredo sauce, homemade or store-bought
- 1 1/4 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/4 cup shaved Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley or fresh parsley
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F. Lightly spray a 9×5-inch or 8×8-inch baking dish with cooking spray and set aside.
- Using a mandolin or large chef’s knife, slice the zucchini lengthwise into 1/8-inch thick slices. You will need about 12 slices.
- Place shredded chicken over each zucchini slice, then add 1 tablespoon of Alfredo sauce. Roll each slice up tightly and place it seam-side down in the prepared baking dish. Repeat with the remaining zucchini and filling.
- Pour the remaining Alfredo sauce over the zucchini roll ups, then sprinkle the mozzarella and Parmesan cheese evenly over the top.
- Bake for 25 minutes, or until the sauce is bubbly and the zucchini is fully cooked.
- Remove from the oven and garnish with parsley. Let the roll ups rest for 10 minutes before serving.
Notes
- Rotisserie chicken is a convenient option for the shredded chicken filling.
- Slice the zucchini evenly and thinly so it rolls easily without breaking.
- Let the dish rest for 10 minutes after baking so the sauce can settle slightly before serving.
- Fresh or dried parsley can be used for garnish.
