Mushroom Chicken Alfredo Lasagna
Cheesy, creamy, and packed with flavor for the perfect cozy meal!
Ingredients
- Lasagna noodles, cooked al dente
- 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded or chopped
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- 1 pound white mushrooms, sliced
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 3 cups Alfredo sauce
- 1 large egg
- 1 cup ricotta cheese
- 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese, divided
- 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- Fresh parsley, for garnish
Instructions
1. Preheat and Prep:
First things first, set your oven to 350°F and grease a 9×13 inch baking dish – it’s time to get ready for some lasagna magic!
2. Sauté the Veggies:
In a large skillet, warm up some olive oil over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic, cooking until they’re soft and fragrant. Toss in the mushrooms and cook until they’re tender and browned. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper, then set aside.
3. Combine the Saucy Chicken:
In a bowl, mix together the Alfredo sauce and cooked chicken until everything is well coated.
4. Whip Up the Ricotta Mixture:
In another bowl, blend the ricotta cheese, egg, 1/2 cup of Parmesan cheese, and Italian seasoning until smooth and creamy.
5. Start Layering:
Now the fun begins! Spread a thin layer of the chicken Alfredo sauce at the bottom of your prepared baking dish. Lay down three lasagna noodles on top.
6. Add the Fillings:
Spread half of the ricotta mixture over the noodles, followed by half of the sautéed mushrooms, and a third of the mozzarella cheese.
7. Build More Layers:
Repeat the layering with another set of noodles, the rest of the ricotta mixture, the remaining mushrooms, and another third of the mozzarella cheese.
8. Finish with a Final Layer:
Top it all off with a final layer of noodles. Pour the remaining chicken Alfredo sauce over the top, then sprinkle with the last of the mozzarella and Parmesan cheese.
9. Bake to Perfection:
Cover the dish with foil and bake for 40 minutes. Then, remove the foil and bake for another 20 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden.
10. Let It Rest and Serve:
Once it’s out of the oven, let the lasagna rest for about 10 minutes to set the layers. This will make slicing a breeze. Garnish with chopped parsley for a fresh burst of color, and you’re ready to dig in!
This lasagna is a creamy, cheesy masterpiece layered with rich Alfredo sauce, tender chicken, and savory mushrooms. Perfect for a cozy, satisfying meal! Enjoy!
