CHICKEN LASAGNA WITH SPINACH



Chicken Lasagna with Spinach image

My boyfriend and I love chicken lasagna with spinach. I never could find the "one" recipe that I really liked. I have a habit of gathering 3 or 4 different recipes and mixing them up to create my own. I have made this with and without chicken, either way it is wonderful.

Time 2h5m

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 21

8 tablespoons butter, divided
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 skinless, boneless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
12 fresh mushrooms, sliced
½ cup chopped onion
8 cloves garlic, minced, divided
salt, divided
¾ teaspoon ground black pepper, divided
1 (16 ounce) package lasagna noodles
3 (9 ounce) packages fresh spinach
2 cups whipping cream
2 cups half-and-half
2 teaspoons onion powder
1 teaspoon crushed dried sage
1 bay leaf
cooking spray (such as Pam®)
¼ cup all-purpose flour
3 ½ cups shredded Parmesan cheese, divided
⅛ teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 (32 ounce) container ricotta cheese
4 cups shredded mozzarella cheese, divided

Steps:

  • Heat 3 tablespoons butter and olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add chicken, mushrooms, onion, 1/2 of the minced garlic, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper; cook until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in spinach; set aside.
  • While chicken is cooking, bring 2 large pots of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook lasagna noodles in the boiling water in one pot, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 8 minutes. Drain and set aside. Drop spinach into the boiling water in the second pot and blanch for 1 minute; pour into a colander to drain.
  • Combine cream, half-and-half, remaining garlic, onion powder, sage, and bay leaf in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on high power in 1-minute increments until boiling; stir well.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray a 12x15-inch piece of aluminum foil with cooking spray.
  • Melt remaining 5 tablespoons butter in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add flour; stir and cook until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Continue stirring and add cream mixture. Cook until thickened, about 3 minutes. Stir in 1 1/2 cups Parmesan cheese, remaining 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper, and nutmeg. Remove from heat.
  • Meanwhile, mix ricotta cheese and 3 cups mozzarella cheese in a medium bowl. Fold in 1/4 cup of the cream sauce.
  • Assemble lasagna in a deep 9x13-inch baking dish as follows, spreading ingredients in each layer: 1/2 cup cream sauce, 1/3 of the chicken-spinach mixture, 1/3 of the noodles, 1/2 cup cream sauce, 1/3 of the chicken-spinach mixture, 1/2 of the ricotta mixture, 1/4 cup cream sauce, 1/3 of the noodles, 1/2 cup cream sauce, remaining chicken-spinach mixture, remaining ricotta mixture, remaining noodles, remaining cream sauce, remaining Parmesan, and remaining mozzarella. Cover with the aluminum foil, sprayed-side down.

SPINACH LASAGNA WITH CHICKEN



Spinach Lasagna With Chicken image

I found this recipe on a can of Del Monte spinach. I used fresh spinach instead of the can, chicken instead of beef. It turned out to be a big lasagna, but it was very good. I made it in a 4.5 quart casserole dish. It seems like you could substitute and add a lot of things. I added some zucchini to the chicken. I also used low-fat ricotta and low-fat mozzarella.
