Ingredients
Rolls
- 1 package (12 count) Hawaiian Rolls
Filling
- 1 (26 ounce) jar Alfredo sauce or homemade Alfredo sauce
- 2 cups shredded cooked chicken breast
- 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
Topping
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Additional grated Parmesan cheese (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C) and allow it to fully preheat while you prepare the rolls.
- Prepare the filling: In a mixing bowl, combine the Alfredo sauce, shredded cooked chicken, grated Parmesan cheese, dried parsley, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are well incorporated.
- Prepare the baking dish: Lightly grease a casserole dish or baking pan with cooking spray to prevent sticking and to allow easy cleanup.
- Prepare the rolls: Place the Hawaiian rolls in the dish. Using a sharp knife, cut a deep “X” across the top of each roll without slicing all the way through, creating pockets for the filling.
- Stuff the rolls: Spoon a generous amount of the Alfredo chicken mixture into each cut opening of the rolls. If desired, sprinkle extra grated Parmesan on top for additional cheesiness.
- Add olive oil: Drizzle olive oil evenly over the stuffed rolls to help achieve a golden, crispy top while baking.
- Bake: Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 10–12 minutes, or until the rolls are golden brown and the cheese filling is melted and bubbly.
- Serve warm: Remove from the oven and serve immediately while warm and gooey for the best taste experience.
Notes
- You can use homemade Alfredo sauce for a fresher and creamier texture.
- Adding a sprinkle of mozzarella cheese on top before baking adds extra gooeyness.
- To make it spicier, add a pinch of red pepper flakes into the filling.
- Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days and reheated in the oven.
- Using rotisserie chicken can save time and add extra flavor.
