Herbed Chicken Lasagna image

For a cooking class several years ago, I lightened up a classic lasagna and created this chicken version. It was preferred over the traditional dish in taste tests in my class and by my family and friends as well. -Dena Stapelman, Laurel, Nebraska

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I had some roasted chicken that I needed to use up and this lasagna was the perfect solution.
