Tips:

  • To make the chicken parmesan, you can use either boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs. If using thighs, be sure to trim off any excess fat.
  • To ensure that the chicken parmesan is cooked through, use a meat thermometer to check that it has reached an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit (74 degrees Celsius).
  • If you don't have a meat thermometer, you can also check if the chicken parmesan is cooked through by cutting into the center of a piece. The chicken should be white and opaque all the way through.
  • To make the lasagna noodles, you can use either fresh or dried noodles. If using dried noodles, be sure to cook them according to the package instructions.
  • To prevent the lasagna from drying out, cover it with aluminum foil before baking.
  • To serve the lasagna, let it cool for about 10 minutes before slicing and serving.

This easy chicken parmesan lasagna is a delicious and satisfying meal that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences.
