Gianluca Mancini eventually gave the Romans the lead after a profligate 20 minutes, heading a Dybala-delivered freekick from close range.
Roma unsuccesfully pushed to double the lead, instead it was Florian Thauvin who got the second goal of the game in the 57th minute, and equaliser for Udinese.
Despite the host's best effort, the game looked headed for a draw until the 80th minute of the game, when Dybala finished off a brilliant team move to give the capital club the lead for the second time in the match.
EL Shaawwy confirmed the three points on the 90th-minute mark when he wrapped his foot around the ball to curl it into the top right.
The win means Roma are now fifth on the log, three points away from Napoli in fourth place, and 10 away from league leaders Inter.
