Chicken Mushroom Lasagna image

This white sauce lasagne is a favorite. It's good enough to serve to company. I usually make a Caesar salad and have some crusty french bread on hand. If I don't have cooked chicken on hand, I'll buy a roasted one from the store and debone it, using part of it in here and saving the rest for another meal.

Time 1h45m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 16

9 lasagna noodles
1/4 cup butter or 1/4 cup margarine
3 cups fresh mushrooms, sliced (don't use canned)
1/2 cup chopped onion
3 -4 garlic cloves, minced (at least 2 tsp.)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1/4 cup flour
2 teaspoons instant chicken bouillon
3 cups half-and-half cream (can use fat-free)
3 cups cubed cooked chicken
1/3 cup chopped fresh parsley
1 1/2 teaspoons either marjoram or 1 1/2 teaspoons basil
15 ounces ricotta cheese
8 ounces shredded mozzarella cheese
6 tablespoons fresh grated parmesan cheese (Regiano is best)

Steps:

  • Cook Lasagna noodles in large pot of boiling water according to package directions. Carefully lay noodles out flat on wax paper and set aside.
  • Melt butter in saucepan or deep skillet, add mushrooms, minced garlic, chopped onions, salt and lemon juice. Cook 5 min @ medium heat. Stir in flour and chicken bouillon - blend well. Add milk and cook @ Med-high or until slightly thick (at least 5 minutes). Stir in chicken, parsley and marjoram (or basil) and set aside.
  • Here's an easy trick I learned with the noodles:.
  • Mix the ricotta and shredded mozzarella. Spread on Lasagna noodles, pressing it with your fingers. This will make it easier to layer.
  • Spread 1/3 cup of the sauce in the bottom of a 9 x 12 pan. (The disposable GLAD ones work great). Lay 3 noodles spread with the ricotta and mozzarella side by side, slightly overlapping if necessary, 1/3 of remaining sauce and sprinkle with 2 TBL of the parmesan. Repeat twice ending with parmesan - can use extra on top if desired.
  • Bake at 325 for 45 minutes. Let stand 15 min before serving.
