Alfredo Chicken Lasagna
This is a different take on Lasagna. The spinach and chicken offer a unique flavor combination that isn't as heavy as traditional dishes. We like to substitute eggplant in place of the noodles.
Ingredients:
1 package (16oz) lasagna noodles
1 package (10-12 oz) frozen chopped spinach
2 boneless chicken breasts
2 jars (16 oz) Alfredo Pasta Sauce
4 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
1 container (32 oz) ricotta/cottage cheese (try a mixture of half each)
1 teaspoon each Pepper, Salt and Garlic Seasoning (mix in the ricotta/cottage cheese)
Optional: Try adding drained mushrooms, sautéed onions or eggplant (sliced thin)
Directions:
1. Cook lasagna noodles according to package (large pot of salted boiling water) – Drain
2. Cook spinach according to package (microwave for several minutes) – Drain and press out liquid
3. Cook chicken breasts and shred (grilled, boiled, baked – your choice)
4. In a deep 9 x 13 baking dish, start layering – Noodles, chicken, ricotta/cottage cheese, spinach, sauce, mozzarella cheese. Repeat. Repeat.
5. Bake @ 350 for 30 minutes or until top is bubbly and browned
** Alternate way to make:
- Use 2 cans of chicken (drain and shred)
- Thaw spinach – drain and press out liquid
- Use noodles uncooked
- Layer as above but extend bake time to one hour
