Chicken Parm Lasagna Recipe 455

Steps:

• Cut chicken breasts in half (pound thin if necessary) and season with salt and pepper.
• Add the flour, 4 eggs, and bread crumbs to 3 separate shallow dishes. Beat the eggs. Coat the chicken in the flour, then the eggs, and finally in the bread crumbs.
• Heat the vegetable oil in a cast iron skillet over medium heat. Fry the chicken on both sides until golden brown, about 4 minutes on each side. Let drain on paper towels.
• In a medium bowl, combine the ricotta cheese and the remaining egg.
• Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
• Spread about ⅓ of the marinara sauce over the bottom of a casserole dish. Top with 4 lasagna noodles, ½ of the ricotta mixture, and 3 chicken cutlets. Sprinkle with ½ cup of mozzarella and ½ cup of Parmesan cheese. Repeat to make another layer, then finish with the remaining sauce and mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses.
• Cover with foil and bake for 45-60 minutes, uncovering the lasagna for the last 10 minutes of baking.
• Serve with a sprinkle of fresh basil.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• For the chicken: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Sprinkle the chicken breast with the Italian seasoning, salt and pepper. Heat the oil in a pan and cook the chicken on medium heat until it registers 165 degrees F in the middle, about 5 minutes on each side. Cube the chicken and set aside.
• For the alfredo sauce: In the same pan that the chicken was cooked in, melt the butter over low heat. Add the minced garlic and cook until the garlic has softened, about 2 minutes. Add the flour and whisk until smooth. (Be careful not to brown the roux.) Add the milk and heavy cream a little at a time, making sure to whisk until smooth after each addition, and let thicken, about 5 minutes. Add the nutmeg and pepper. Whisk to combine. Turn off the heat and mix in 2 1/2 cups Parmesan. Stir until all the cheese is melted. Add salt and pepper to taste.
• Layer 1 cup of the alfredo sauce on the bottom of a 9-by-13-inch baking pan. Add 3 lasagna noodles. Spread another cup of alfredo, a third of the chicken, a sprinkle of parsley and a quarter of the mozzarella. Then add 3 more noodles and repeat the layering two more times, ending with alfredo sauce, the remaining mozzarella and 1/2 cup shredded Parmesan.
• Bake until browned on top, 40 to 50 minutes. Remove the lasagna from the oven and sprinkle with parsley. Let the lasagna rest for 10 minutes before cutting into it.

Steps:

• Lightly season the chicken breast with salt and pepper, then slice it into strips about ½ inch (1 cm) in thickness.
• Dredge each piece of chicken in flour followed by egg and bread crumbs.
• Quickly fry chicken strips in ½ inch (1 cm) of oil over medium heat, cooking for about 30 seconds each side to color the breading. Set cooked strips aside to drain on paper towels. (NOTE: The chicken will NOT be fully cooked after this stage.)
• On a clean surface, assemble the roll-ups. Start by laying a cooked lasagna noodle flat. Using a spoon, spread marinara sauce on one end of the noodle. Next, add a slice of mozzarella cheese on top of the sauce followed by a piece of chicken. Starting from the end with the sauce on it, roll up the noodle like a sleeping bag towards the un-sauced side.
• Place each roll-up into a large casserole dish that has been lightly covered with nonstick cooking spray.
• Pour remaining sauce over roll-ups, then generously cover with mozzarella cheese.
• Bake at 350˚F (180˚C) for 20 minutes until cheese is melted and edges of lasagna noodle are slightly crisped.
• Serve and garnish with parsley.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375°F. Spray 13x9-inch baking dish with cooking spray. Set aside.
• In 4-quart saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Add garlic; cook 2 to 3 minutes or until garlic is fragrant. Slowly beat in flour with whisk; cook about 1 minute or until smooth. Beat in milk and broth, 1 cup at a time, beating until thickened after each addition. Remove from heat. Beat in Italian seasoning.
• Pour 1 cup of the milk mixture into baking dish. Top with 3 lasagna noodles. Sprinkle one-third of the chicken and 1 cup of the spinach on top. In small bowl, stir together ricotta and egg. Spread one-third of the ricotta mixture on top of chicken and spinach.
• Place 3 lasagna noodles on top of the ricotta, followed by 1 cup of the milk mixture, one-third of the chicken, 1 cup of the spinach and one-third of the ricotta mixture.
• Repeat with another layer of 3 lasagna noodles, 1 cup milk mixture, remaining chicken and spinach and remaining ricotta. Finish with last 3 lasagna noodles and remaining milk mixture. Sprinkle with mozzarella cheese. Pour the water on top of lasagna; cover pan with foil.
• Bake 45 minutes. Remove foil; top with bread crumbs and Parmesan cheese. Bake 10 to 15 minutes longer or until topping is bubbly and golden brown. Cool 10 to 15 minutes before cutting.
