Tips:

  • Use a variety of cheeses. This will give your lasagna a more complex flavor. Some good options include mozzarella, ricotta, Parmesan, and Asiago.
  • Don't overcook the chicken. Otherwise, it will become dry and tough. Cook it until it is just cooked through, about 10 minutes per side.
  • Use a good quality tomato sauce. This is the base of your lasagna, so it's important to use a sauce that is flavorful and well-seasoned. You can use a store-bought sauce or make your own.
  • Don't skimp on the cheese. Cheese is what makes lasagna so delicious, so don't be afraid to use plenty of it. Use a combination of different cheeses to create a more complex flavor.
  • Let the lasagna rest before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld together and the lasagna to set up properly. Let it rest for at least 15 minutes before cutting and serving.
