  • Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil.

Notes

You can use regular lasagna noodles instead of oven-ready, just cook them according to package directions but slightly undercook them.
Store-bought Alfredo sauce can be used as a time-saver - use approximately 4 cups.
Rotisserie chicken is ideal for this recipe, but you can cook and shred chicken breasts if preferred.
For a make-ahead option, assemble the lasagna, cover and refrigerate for up to 24 hours before baking.
Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days or frozen for up to 3 months.
