Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 1h15m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 boneless skinless chicken breasts
4 red bell peppers
1 lb whole wheat lasagna noodles
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 garlic clove, pressed
1 cup parmigiano-reggiano cheese, grated
1 cup 1% low-fat milk
1 cup plain low-fat yogurt
fresh ground pepper

Steps:

  • Roast red peppers (see Recipe #18589 for instructions).
  • Boil lasagna noodles according to package directions.
  • Steam chicken, cut into thin pieces.
  • Cook olive oil and garlic in a large skillet at medium heat for about 1 minute.
  • Add half the chicken chicken and 1/2 cup cheese and toss well.
  • Add milk, stir and raise to medium high heat for about 2 minutes.
  • To prevent curdling, mix yogurt with the rest of the chicken pieces in a separate bowl.
  • Turn off heat, return mixture to skillet and mix well.
  • In lasagna pan, layer chicken and sauce, roasted red peppers, and noodles.
  • Top with remaining 1/2 cup of cheese.
  • Bake at 350 just until hot.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients. Fresh, flavorful ingredients will make your lasagna taste its best. Look for ripe tomatoes, roasted red peppers with a smoky flavor, and succulent chicken breasts.
  • Don't overcook the chicken. Chicken can quickly become dry and tough if it's overcooked. Cook it until it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Make sure the lasagna is cooked through. The center of the lasagna should be hot and bubbly when it comes out of the oven. If it's not, put it back in the oven for a few more minutes.
  • Let the lasagna rest before serving. This will help the flavors to meld and the lasagna to set. Let it rest for at least 15 minutes before slicing and serving.

Conclusion:

This Roasted Red Pepper and Chicken Lasagna is a delicious and hearty meal that's perfect for a special occasion or a weeknight dinner. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own tastes. So next time you're looking for a satisfying and flavorful lasagna recipe, give this one a try.
