Looking for a hearty and flavorful meal that's perfect for any occasion? Try out this delicious chicken and spinach lasagna recipe!
Ingredients:
- 1 pound of ground chicken
- 1 box of lasagna noodles
- 1 jar of marinara sauce
- 3 cups of fresh spinach
- 2 cups of ricotta cheese
- 1 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup of grated parmesan cheese
- 2 cloves of minced garlic
- 1 tablespoon of olive oil
- 1 teaspoon of dried basil
- Salt and pepper to taste
To begin, preheat your oven to 375°F. In a large pan, heat up the olive oil on medium-high heat. Add the minced garlic and cook until fragrant. Then, add the ground chicken and cook until browned. Add the marinara sauce, dried basil, salt, and pepper, and let the mixture simmer for 10 minutes.
While the sauce is simmering, cook the lasagna noodles according to the package instructions. In another pan, sauté the spinach until wilted. In a separate bowl, mix together the ricotta cheese, shredded mozzarella cheese, and grated parmesan cheese.
Now it's time to assemble the lasagna. Start by putting a layer of the chicken and marinara sauce mixture on the bottom of a baking dish. Add a layer of lasagna noodles, followed by a layer of the spinach, and then a layer of the cheese mixture. Repeat this layering process until all ingredients are used up. Top off the lasagna with a final layer of mozzarella cheese.Bake the lasagna in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Serve hot and enjoy!
Tips:
- For a vegetarian option, substitute the ground chicken with a plant-based protein such as Beyond Meat or tofu.
- Feel free to add more vegetables to the lasagna, such as bell peppers, onions, and mushrooms.
- If you're short on time, you can use pre-made marinara sauce instead of making your own.
