Time 1h45m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 ½ pounds bone-in chicken breasts with skin
2 cups chicken stock, or as needed
1 tablespoon paprika
1 teaspoon salt, or more to taste
½ teaspoon cayenne pepper
12 lasagna noodles
cooking spray
1 tablespoon olive oil, or more as needed
2 stalks celery, finely chopped
½ onion, finely chopped
⅔ cup buffalo wing sauce
½ cup crumbled blue cheese
1 (16 ounce) container ricotta cheese
1 cup blue cheese dressing
1 egg
1 (8 ounce) package shredded mozzarella cheese

Steps:

  • Place chicken in a single layer in a large pot and add enough chicken stock to cover; season with paprika, 1 teaspoon salt, and cayenne pepper. Bring stock to a boil, reduce heat to medium, and simmer until chicken is no longer pink in the center, 15 to 20 minutes. Shred chicken.
  • Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook lasagna noodles in the boiling water, stirring occasionally until tender yet firm to the bite, about 8 minutes. Drain. Arrange noodles on a sheet of aluminum foil or parchment paper and spray with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
  • Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat; cook and stir celery and onion until just starting to soften, about 5 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Combine onion mixture and shredded chicken in a bowl; add about 1/3 the buffalo wing sauce and blue cheese and mix well.
  • Mix ricotta cheese, blue cheese dressing, and remaining buffalo wing sauce in a separate bowl; season with salt and cayenne pepper to taste. Stir egg into mixture.
  • Spread a layer of ricotta mixture in the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish; top with a layer of 3 noodles. Spread 1/4 of the remaining ricotta mixture over noodle layer; top with 1/3 the chicken mixture, and 1/4 the mozzarella cheese. Layer 3 lasagna noodles over cheese layer and repeat layering 2 times more ending with a layer of ricotta mixture and mozzarella cheese.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until cooked through and top is lightly browned, about 45 minutes. Cool lasagna at least 20 minutes before cutting.

Tips:

  • Use a quality buffalo sauce: Choosing a flavorful and tangy buffalo sauce will greatly enhance the taste of your lasagna. Look for a sauce that has a good balance of heat and flavor, and that is made with real cayenne pepper.
  • Don't overcook the chicken: Overcooked chicken will be dry and tough. To ensure moist and tender chicken, cook it until it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
  • Use a variety of cheeses: A combination of cheeses will give your lasagna a rich and complex flavor. Try using a blend of mozzarella, cheddar, and cream cheese.
  • Don't skimp on the ranch dressing: Ranch dressing adds a creamy and tangy flavor to the lasagna that perfectly complements the buffalo sauce. Be generous with the ranch dressing, especially if you like your lasagna extra saucy.
  • Let the lasagna rest before serving: This will allow the flavors to meld together and the lasagna to set properly. Let the lasagna rest for at least 15 minutes before slicing and serving.

Conclusion:

Buffalo chicken lasagna is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is a great way to use up leftover chicken, and it is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
