Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 sheets Lasagna noodles
- 3 cups Cooked shredded chicken
- 4 cups Alfredo sauce
- 2 cups Ricotta cheese
- 3 cups Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
- 3 cups Baby spinach
- 1 large Egg
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the lasagna noodles according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and place the noodles on a parchment-lined tray to prevent sticking.
In a medium bowl, mix together the ricotta cheese, egg, salt, black pepper, and 1/2 cup of Parmesan cheese. Set aside.
Heat a skillet over medium heat and add olive oil. Sauté the baby spinach until wilted, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
Spread 1/2 cup of Alfredo sauce on the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish.
Lay 3 cooked lasagna noodles over the sauce.
Spread 1/3 of the ricotta mixture evenly over the noodles. Top with 1 cup of shredded cooked chicken, a handful of wilted spinach, 1 cup of Alfredo sauce, and 1 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese.
Repeat the layering process two more times: noodles, ricotta mixture, chicken, spinach, Alfredo sauce, and mozzarella.
For the final layer, top with lasagna noodles, spread the remaining Alfredo sauce, and sprinkle with the remaining mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses.
Cover the lasagna with aluminum foil, making sure it doesn't touch the cheese, and bake for 35 minutes.
Remove the foil and bake for an additional 20 minutes, or until the top is golden and bubbly.
Let the lasagna cool for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
