Ingredients
  • 230 gr instant lasagna
  • 250 gr chicken thigh
  • 630 gr instant bolognese sauce
  • 1/2 tsp blackpepper
  • 1 tbsp mushroom bouillon
  • 1 onion
  • 3 cloves of garlic
  • 5 tbsp olive oil
  • Water to boil
  • Bechamel
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 1/4 cup flour
  • 3 tbsp cream cheese
  • 500 ml milk
  • 1 tsp mushroom bouillon
  • a pinch of salt
  • Topping
  • 2 cups mozarella
  • Cheddar to sprinkle (optional)
  • Chopped parsley
Instructions
  1. Boil the lasagna sheets in a large pot of water until they are al dente. Once done, drain them and set aside.

  2. Cook the Chicken Filling:
    • In a skillet, heat 5 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat.
    • Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, sautéing until they turn translucent and fragrant.
    • Incorporate the diced chicken thigh into the skillet, cooking until it's evenly browned.
    • Season the chicken with black pepper and mushroom bouillon for an extra kick of flavor.
    • Pour in the instant bolognese sauce, stirring well to combine all the ingredients. Allow it to simmer for a few minutes until the flavors meld together.
  3. Prepare the Bechamel Sauce:
    • In a separate saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat.
    • Gradually whisk in the flour to create a roux, cooking until it becomes golden brown and fragrant.
    • Slowly pour in the milk while continuously whisking to prevent lumps from forming.
    • Add the cream cheese, mushroom bouillon, and a pinch of salt, stirring until the sauce thickens to a creamy consistency. Remove from heat and set aside.
  4. Assemble the Lasagna:
    • Preheat your oven to 190°C (375°F).
    • Arrange a layer of boiled lasagna sheets evenly at the bottom of the dish.
    • Spoon a portion of the chicken filling over the lasagna sheets, spreading it out evenly.
    • Pour a layer of bechamel sauce over the chicken filling, ensuring it covers the entire surface.
    • Sprinkle a generous amount of mozarella and cheddar cheese on top of the bechamel sauce.
    • Repeat the layers until all the ingredients are used, ending with a final layer of mozzarella cheese.
  5. Bake the Lasagna:
    • Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.
    • After 30 minutes, remove the aluminum foil and continue baking for an additional 15 minutes or until the cheese turns golden brown and bubbly.
    • Once baked to perfection, remove the lasagna from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes.
    • Garnish with chopped parsley and, if desired, sprinkle some cheddar cheese on top for an extra cheesy finish.
