PERFECT MEXICAN LASAGNA



Perfect Mexican Lasagna image

I got this recipe from Robin Miller's Quick Fix Meals. I have made this several times and my husband loves it. And it is so easy to make! I usually just buy Tyson's ready cooked chicken breast strips (two 6oz pkgs) pre-seasoned with southwestern spices. I sometimes use multi-grain flour tortillas, when I can find them in the store.

Tips:

  • To ensure the lasagna has a rich and flavorful sauce, use a combination of ground beef, Italian sausage, and chorizo. Browning the meats before adding them to the sauce will enhance their flavor even more.
  • Use a variety of cheeses for the filling, such as mozzarella, Monterey Jack, and Parmesan. This will create a gooey, flavorful filling that complements the meat sauce perfectly.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different types of tortillas. Corn tortillas can be used for a more traditional Mexican lasagna, while flour tortillas will create a softer, more delicate lasagna.
  • If you're using corn tortillas, be sure to soak them in hot water for a few minutes before using. This will make them more pliable and less likely to crack when you're rolling up the lasagna.
  • Be generous with the cheese sauce. It should be thick and creamy, and it should coat the lasagna evenly.
  • Bake the lasagna until it's bubbly and golden brown. This will ensure that the cheese is melted and the lasagna is cooked through.

Conclusion:

Mexican lasagna is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. With its flavorful combination of meats, cheeses, and tortillas, it's sure to be a hit with everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a new and exciting lasagna recipe, give Mexican lasagna a try. You won't be disappointed!
