Found this recipe on foodgawker...So yummy. Also really great for a freezer meal if you want to just make a bunch at one time.
INGREDIENTS:
- 12 lasagna noodles
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons flour
- 2 cups milk
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- 2 cups shredded chicken breast
- 2 (15-ounce) container ricotta cheese
- 1 cup basil pesto...I used the kirkland bottled pesto and did not use a full cup. that seemed like way too much to me so just do it to taste.
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese, divided
- 2 cups marinara sauce, divided
- Grated Parmesan, for serving
DIRECTIONS:
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Lightly oil a 9x13 baking dish or coat with nonstick spray.
In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook lasagna according to package instructions; drain well.
To make the béchamel, melt the butter in a large saucepan. Whisk in the flour until lightly browned, about 1-2 minutes. Gradually whisk in the milk and cook, whisking constantly, until thickened, about 3-4 minutes; season with salt and pepper, to taste. Spread 1/2 cup béchamel in the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
In a large bowl, combine the chicken, ricotta, pesto, 1 cup mozzarella, salt and pepper, to taste. Lay the noodles flat and spread 1/3 cup ricotta mixture evenly along each noodle. Roll up and place seam side down in the baking dish; repeat with remaining noodles and filling. Top with remaining béchamel and 1 cup marinara and sprinkle with mozzarella.
Place into oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until lasagna rolls are heated through and the cheese is beginning to brown.
Serve immediately on a bed of marinara and garnished with Parmesan, if desired.
