Creamy chicken lasagna
Lasagna has become one of my favorite dishes this winter and this is a really nice variation. You can add cream for a really rich sauce. (Good for 6 people)
What you need
- Olive oil and butter for frying
- 750g cooked and sliced chicken breasts
- 1 onion diced
- 1 cup pasta marinara sauce
- 1 teaspoon minced garlic
- 1 cup grated mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup cheddar grated cheese
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 1/2 boxes par cooked lasagna sheets
- Salt and pepper to taste
The process
- In a frying pan with some olive oil and a little butter, cook the onions until soft and add the garlic.
- Add the cooked chicken and salt and pepper to taste. You can add the chicken breasts uncooked at this stage and cook until white.
- Now add the pasta marinara sauce or similar tomato sauce of your choice and about 125ml cream if you need real comfort food.
- Your pasta should be boiled for about 7 minutes before you begin constructing the lasagna.
- Butter a baking dish well and put 1 layer of pasta on the bottom, then a layer of the chicken sauce mixture and sprinkle over a layer of cheese.
- Repeat until you reach the top of the dish and finish with a layer of pasta, Top with the remaining cheese and set in a 180 Celsius oven for 30 minutes or until the cheese is melted and slightly browned in places.
YUM!
