8 tablespoons (1 stick) unsalted butter
1 cup finely chopped yellow onion
3 tablespoons minced garlic
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
7 cups milk
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
2 (10 oz.) boxes or bags frozen chopped organic spinach, defrosted and wrung dry

1 1/2 lbs. chicken sausage
2 (14-ounce) cans quartered artichoke hearts, drained and chopped
1 pound oven-ready Lasagna sheets

Steps:

  • Melt the butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the onions and garlic to the pan and saute until soft and translucent, 3 to 4 minutes.

Whisking constantly, slowly add the milk and continue to cook, stirring occasionally until thickened, 5 minutes. Add the salt, pepper, nutmeg, spinach and 1 1/2 cups of the Parmesan and cook, stirring, until thickened, about 2 minutes.
  • Remove from the heat. Place a piece of plastic wrap directly on the surface of the creamy sauce until ready to assemble the lasagna.
  • Set a large, 12-inch saute pan over medium heat and add the olive oil. Brown the sausage until golden brown and cooked through, about 4 to 5 minutes. Stir in artichokes. Transfer to a plate to cool and set aside.
  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Coat a 9-by-13 inch baking dish with olive oil, and spread about 1/2 cup of the bechamel sauce on the bottom of the dish. Lay 3 sheets of pasta across the bottom of the dish and spread 3/4 cup of the bechamel sauce over the pasta. Sprinkle 1/4 of the chicken and artichoke mixture over the bechamel sauce, then sprinkle with 1/4 cup of the remaining Parmesan. Lay another 3 sheets of pasta over the chicken and artichokes. Repeat 2 additional times with the remaining bechamel sauce, chicken and artichokes, Parmesan, and pasta, ending with a layer of pasta covered with bechamel sauce. Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of Parmesan over the bechamel sauce and scatter the butter pieces over the top.

Sauce:
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/4 cup diced onion
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 pound boneless chicken breasts, cut into cubes
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

1 pound lasagna noodles, preferably fresh
4 tablespoons butter
1/4 cup all-purpose flour

Steps:

  • In a large skillet heat the olive oil over medium-low heat. Add the onion, garlic, chicken, Italian seasoning and season well with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring often until chicken is cooked through. Cut the artichokes in half and then in half again, dry off any moisture with paper towels. Stir them into the chicken and cook 2 - 3 minutes. Remove from heat and allow to cool. In a large mixing bowl combine the ricotta, 1 + 1/2 cups of the mozzarella, the egg and parsley. Make stacks out of the spinach leaves and cut them into thin strips (chiffonade). Mix them into the ricotta mixture - it will be thick. Make the sauce: In a large, heavy duty saucepan melt the butter over medium-low heat. Whisk in flour and cook 3 - 4 minutes, whisking often. Slowly whisk in milk, turn heat up and bring to a simmer. Maintain a simmer for 4 minutes, stirring often. Turn heat down to low and stir in nutmeg, Parmesan cheese and a pinch or two each of salt and pepper, continue stirring until cheese is melted. Remove from heat. If using dried noodles cook according to package directions. Assemble the lasagna: Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Butter a 9 x 13-inch casserole pan. Add a very thin layer of sauce over bottom of the pan, then a layer of noodles covering the bottom completely from edge to edge. Spread 1/2 the ricotta mixture evenly from edge to edge then top with 1/3 of the chicken mixture followed by 1/3 of the sauce. Cover the filling with another layer of noodles followed with the remaining 1/2 of ricotta, 1/3 of the chicken and 1/3 of the sauce. Cover with another layer of noodles followed by the remaining sauce, the remaining chicken mixture and the 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese. Bake 45 - 50 minutes until bubbly and hot in the middle.

Artichoke chicken lasagna is a delicious and comforting dish that is perfect for any occasion. This dish is easy to put together, and incredibly satisfying to eat. Lasagna is also ideal for meal prep, as it can be made in advance and easily reheated. If you're considering making artichoke chicken lasagna, here are some valuable tips to ensure that your dish looks and tastes great.

Tip #1: Choose Fresh Ingredients

When making artichoke chicken lasagna, it is important to select fresh ingredients. Ensure that the vegetables, chicken, and cheese are all fresh and not expired. Fresh ingredients will not only give your dish a richer flavor, but they will also improve the appearance and texture of your lasagna.
Selecting Fresh Vegetables
When it comes to artichokes, it is best to buy them fresh and not canned. Fresh artichokes have a more subtle flavor and a better texture. When choosing artichokes, look for ones that have tight, compact leaves that are green and have no brown spots. Other vegetables like spinach and mushrooms should also be freshly picked to enhance the flavor.
Choosing Fresh Chicken
When it comes to selecting chicken for your lasagna, it is important to choose fresh chicken. Fresh chicken will have a better texture and flavor, and it will also be more tender than frozen chicken. If you have to use frozen chicken, make sure it is thawed before you cook it.
Use Quality Cheese
The cheese you use in your lasagna is incredibly important, as it is what gives the dish its flavor and texture. When making artichoke chicken lasagna, choose cheeses that are high quality, like mozzarella, parmesan, and ricotta. Avoid using pre-shredded cheese, as it often contains fillers that can affect the taste and texture of your dish.

Tip #2: Pre-Cooking the Chicken

Cooking the chicken before you add it to your lasagna is an important step. Pre-cooking the chicken ensures that it is cooked through, and prevents it from overcooking in the oven. Overcooked chicken can become tough and dry, which will negatively affect the overall taste of your dish.
How to Cook Chicken for Lasagna
There are several ways to cook chicken for lasagna. You can bake it, pan-fry it, or grill it. No matter which method you choose, make sure that the chicken is fully cooked before adding it to your lasagna. When you are cooking the chicken, you can also add herbs and spices to give it a more flavorful taste.

Tip #3: Choosing the Right Lasagna Noodles

Choosing the right noodles is incredibly important when making lasagna. Using the wrong type of noodle can affect the texture and taste of your dish. There are several types of lasagna noodles to choose from, including regular noodles, no-boil noodles, and gluten-free noodles.
Regular Noodles
Regular lasagna noodles are the most common type of noodle used in lasagna dishes, and they are available at most grocery stores. These noodles need to be pre-boiled before adding them to your dish.
No-Boil Noodles
No-boil lasagna noodles are a convenient option for those who do not have the time or space to pre-boil noodles. These noodles are designed to be added directly to the dish and cook during the baking process.
Gluten-Free Noodles
For those who are gluten-sensitive, there are several gluten-free lasagna noodles available. These noodles are made with alternative flours, like rice or quinoa flour, and can be found at most health food stores.

Tip #4: Seasoning Your Lasagna

Seasoning your lasagna is incredibly important, as it adds depth and complexity to the flavors of your dish. When seasoning your lasagna, do not be afraid to add more than just salt and pepper. You can add herbs like basil, oregano, or thyme to give your lasagna a more authentic Italian flavor.
Using Fresh Herbs vs. Dry Herbs
When it comes to using herbs in your lasagna, fresh herbs are the best option. Fresh herbs have a more potent flavor than dried herbs and will add a more authentic taste to your dish. If you cannot find fresh herbs, dried herbs are a good substitute.
Avoid Over Seasoning
While seasoning is important, do not over season your lasagna. Too much seasoning can overpower the other flavors in your dish and make it unpleasant to eat. Start with a small amount of seasoning, and add more as needed.

Tip #5: Layering the Lasagna

Layering the lasagna is a crucial step in the preparation of your dish. Proper layering ensures that each bite is evenly distributed with all the ingredients.
Proper Layering
To properly layer your lasagna, start with a layer of sauce on the bottom of your baking dish. Add a layer of noodles on top of the sauce, followed by a layer of vegetables, chicken, and cheese. Repeat the process until all the ingredients are used up. Make sure to end with a layer of cheese on top of the lasagna.
Avoid Over-Crowding the Dish
Avoid Overcrowding your lasagna as it can affect the cooking time and the overall texture of your dish. Use a larger baking dish if necessary to ensure that the lasagna is not overcrowded.
