Creamy Chicken Lasagna
Ingredients
  • 9 lasagna noodles
  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 1 1/2 cups milk
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 4 cups shredded mozzarella cheese, divided
  • 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese, divided
  • 1 teaspoon dried basil
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 2 cups ricotta cheese
  • 2 cups cubed, cooked chicken meat
  • 2 (10 ounce) packages frozen chopped spinach, thawed and drained
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
1
Gather all the necessary components and preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius).
2
Boil a substantial quantity of lightly salted water in a large pot until it reaches a rolling boil. Introduce lasagna noodles into the boiling water and cook for 8 to 10 minutes, or until they have achieved an al dente texture; subsequently, drain the noodles and rinse them with cold water.
3
Concurrently, melt butter in a large saucepan over medium heat; incorporate an onion and garlic into the mixture. Whisk flour into the sauce until it has turned a light brown color and the onion is tender, approximately 2 minutes. Introduce chicken broth, milk, and salt into the sauce; cook, whisking continuously, for 1 minute.
4
Combine 2 cups of mozzarella and 1/4 cup of Parmesan with the sauce mixture until it is well blended. Season the mixture with basil, oregano, and black pepper; remove from heat and set aside.
5
Apply 1/3 of the sauce mixture to the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish.
6
Layer the sauce mixture with 3 lasagna noodles, ricotta, and chicken.
7
Arrange another 3 lasagna noodles over the chicken layer; subsequently, layer with 1/3 of the sauce mixture, spinach, remaining 2 cups mozzarella, and 1/2 cup Parmesan.
8
Arrange the final lasagna noodles over the cheese layer; then, spread the remaining sauce evenly over the noodles. Sprinkle with parsley and the remaining 1/4 cup of Parmesan.
9
Bake in the preheated oven for 35 to 40 minutes.
