Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a food processor, combine fresh basil leaves, garlic, pine nuts, and olive oil, blending until smooth. Gradually add grated Parmesan, garlic powder, black pepper, thyme, and salt while processing.
- In a large skillet over medium heat, warm olive oil, then add the lean ground chicken. Cook for about 5-7 minutes until browned. Toss in fresh spinach leaves and cook until just wilted.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked chicken and spinach mixture with heavy whipping cream, crème fraiche, and the prepared basil pesto. Stir in shredded Asiago and mozzarella cheeses until well-blended.
- Lay the cooked lasagna noodles flat and spread a generous portion of the filling along each noodle, then roll tightly and place seam-side down in a greased baking dish.
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Cover the assembled lasagna rolls with remaining pesto and sprinkle additional mozzarella cheese. Bake for about 30 minutes until cheese is bubbly and golden brown.

Notes
For best flavor, consider making the rolls a day in advance. Enjoy with fresh herbs or extra cheese on top when serving.
