White Chicken Alfredo Lasagna
- 1 pound Lasagna Noodles
- 1 pound Fresh Spinach
- 2 teaspoons Olive Oil, Plus More For Cooking Pasta
- 1/2 cups Butter
- 1 whole Onion, Chopped
- 1 clove Garlic, Minced
- 1/2 cups Flour
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 2 cups Chicken Broth
- 1- 1/2 cup Milk
- 4 cups Shredded Mozzarella Cheese, Divided
- 1- 1/4 cup Grated Parmesan Cheese, Divided
- 1/2 cups Drained Oil-Packed Sun-Dried Tomatoes, Chopped
- 3 teaspoons Fresh Basil
- 1 teaspoon Oregano
- 1/2 teaspoons Ground Black Pepper
- 2 cups Shredded Chicken
- 2 cups Ricotta Cheese
- 1 teaspoon Fresh Parsley
- 1.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Bring a large pot of salted water to boil, and add lasagna noodles.
- Add a little bit of olive oil to keep noodles from sticking together.
- Drain, rinse with cold water, and add a bit of olive oil again.
- 2.
- While the noodles are boiling, rinse and dry the spinach.
- Remove stems from spinach leaves.
- Add the olive oil to a large saucepan, and cook spinach until bright green and tender.
- Add salt to taste.
- 3.
- The last part you will need to make before putting the lasagna together is the white sauce.
- Start by melting the butter in a large saucepan over medium heat.
- Cook the onion and garlic in the butter until tender.
- Stir in the flour and salt, and simmer until bubbly.
- Mix in the broth and milk, and boil, stirring constantly, for 1 minute.
- Stir in 2 cups mozzarella cheese, 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese, and sun-dried tomatoes.
- Season with basil, oregano, and ground black pepper (keep a bit of the fresh basil to sprinkle on top of the lasagna).
- Add more salt to taste, if desired.
- Remove from heat.
- Set aside about 1 cup of the sauce (enough for the top of the lasagna), then add the chicken to the rest.
- 4.
- You may layer however you want.
- I prefer to be especially liberal with the noodles and cheese.
- This is about how I ended up layering: Put a tiny bit of the chicken-less sauce on the bottom to keep from sticking, then start with a layer of noodles.
- Add ricotta, chicken sauce, spinach, cheese, noodles, and repeat until your pan is full.
- Finish with a layer of noodles, topped with the rest of the chicken-less sauce, and a hefty portion of mozzarella and Parmesan cheese.
- Sprinkle with fresh basil and parsley.
- Bake 35-40 minutes in the preheated oven.
- Enjoy!
