BLAZY'S PEPPERONI STUDDED LASAGNA



Blazy's Pepperoni Studded Lasagna image

Guy Fieri beefs up this Italian favorite with the works: homemade tomato sauce, spicy pepperoni and Italian sausage. The garlic in his fresh tomato sauce is browned and caramelized, giving it a sweet, roasted taste. The flavor more than makes up for the effort, plus you can assemble the whole thing in advance and freeze it.

Time 1h35m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

Salt
1 pound lasagna sheets
8 ounces sliced pepperoni (about 2 cups)
4 cups Tomato Sauce, recipe follows
1 pound ricotta
1 pound shredded mozzarella
2 pounds bulk Italian sausage, cooked
3/4 cup grated Parmesan
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 yellow onion, diced
5 medium cloves garlic, minced
Two 28-ounce cans crushed tomatoes
2 tablespoons thinly sliced fresh basil
1 tablespoon minced fresh oregano
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Boil 6 quarts of water, add a pinch of salt and cook the pasta to almost done, about 7 minutes. Remove from the water and shock in an ice bath.
  • In a medium saucepan, add the pepperoni and saute over medium heat until crispy, about 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and drain on a paper towel.
  • In a 10- by 14- by 3-inch baking pan or dish, pour 1 cup of the Tomato Sauce in the bottom and around the sides. Layer lasagna sheets on the bottom of the pan, overlapping by 1/2 inch. Add one-third of the ricotta and one-quarter of the mozzarella, sausage, pepperoni and Parmesan. Spoon 1 cup of tomato sauce over the top. Repeat this two more times.
  • On the top sheet, finish with the remaining cup of tomato sauce, mozzarella, sausage and pepperoni and dust with Parmesan. Bake until the cheese bubbles around the edges and the top is melted and light golden brown, about 45 minutes. If baking the dish from the freezer, add 15 to 20 minutes to the cook time, or until it's bubbly. Cover loosely with foil if it's browning too quickly. Remove from the oven; let sit for 15 minutes. Cut and serve immediately with more sauce, if desired.
  • In a medium saucepan, heat the olive oil. Add the onions and cook over medium to low heat until transparent, about 20 minutes. Add the garlic and cook until almost brown, about 10 minutes. Then, add the tomatoes and cook for 30 minutes over low to medium heat. Add the basil and oregano and continue to cook for another 30 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, cool and store in the refrigerator until ready to use.

SAUSAGE-PEPPERONI LASAGNA



Sausage-Pepperoni Lasagna image

If you're counting calories and/or cholesterol, you'll want to skip this one. On the other hand, if you want your kids to kiss your feet and promise to do their homework, you might try it. :) My children are grown now, but they (and their friends) still beg for it. The original recipe, which I've modified slightly, was printed in Southern Living many years ago. Don't let the fractions throw you. Just 'guesstimate', saving enough for the top layer that it doesn't dry out. Serve with a salad and garlic bread and eat 'til you pop!

Categories     < 4 Hours

Time 1h5m

Yield 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 (16 ounce) package bulk pork sausage, hot or mild (we much prefer 'hot')
4 cups homemade spaghetti sauce or 1 (30 ounce) jar commercial pasta sauce
1 (8 ounce) package lasagna noodles
1 large egg
1 (15 ounce) carton ricotta cheese
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley (can substitute 1 Tablespoon dried)
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 cup freshly-grated parmesan cheese
1 tablespoon margarine
2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese, divided (or more!)
1 (3 1/2 ounce) package sliced pepperoni

Steps:

  • Brown sausage thoroughly in a large skillet over medium heat, stirring to crumble; drain well.
  • Return sausage to skillet and add spaghetti sauce, stirring well to mix.
  • Cook lasagna noodles according to package directions, except omit salt if called for.
  • While pasta cooks, break egg into mixing bowl and beat lightly.
  • Add ricotta, parsley, oregano, pepper and grated Parmesan to beaten egg, stirring well to mix.
  • When lasagna is done, pour into a colander and run cold running water over the noodles.
  • (Be sure not to skip this step. They stick together something awful and will be impossible to layer if you don't rinse away all the starch.) Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
  • Lightly grease a 9" x 13" baking dish on bottom and sides with margarine.
  • Spoon a small amount of meat sauce into dish, spreading to coat lightly.
  • (Use 1/2 cup or less-- just enough to prevent the bottom layer of noodles from sticking. It should be more like a'film' than a layer.) Place half the noodles in bottom of dish, overlapping slightly if necessary.
  • Spoon half the ricotta mixture on top, using a rubber spatula to spread evenly over all.
  • Sprinkle with 1/3 of mozzarella.
  • Spoon on 1/3 the remaining meat sauce.
  • Repeat layers.
  • Cover top of dish with pepperoni slices.
  • Pour remaining meat sauce over all, spreading evenly.
  • Bake at 375 degrees for 20 minutes.
  • Remove from oven and sprinkle remaining mozzarella on top.
  • Bake an additional 5 minutes, or until cheese has melted.
  • Let stand 10 minutes before cutting into squares and serving.
  • (It won't affect the taste if you don't let it'rest', but it will be terribly runny instead of cutting nicely.).

EASY LASAGNA WITH PEPPERONI



Easy Lasagna With Pepperoni image

Pepperoni isn't just for pizza. Layered between sheets of lasagna with creamy, gooey cheese and a simple crushed tomato marinara, this humble little sausage adds a spicy, peppery, and very flavorful bite to the baked pasta classic. Many recipes call for additional meat-ground beef, other sausages, and such. Here, I used only pepperoni so the full flavor comes through without being hidden behind other ingredients. It also makes this one of the easiest, quickest lasagnas you'll ever put together. Not much cooking at all. Note: This recipe uses a total of 80 small pepperoni slices (the regular kind at the deli), with 40 pieces per layer in a 13 X 9-inch baking dish-about seven ounces of sausage total.

Time 1h5m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

12 lasagna noodles
1 tablespoon olive oil, plus more for oiling dish
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1 small onion, finely chopped
2 cups crushed tomatoes (from a 28-oz can)
1 teaspoon dried oregano, plus more for garnish
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1/2 fresh ground black pepper
1 (15 ounce) container ricotta cheese
3 tablespoons chopped flat leaf parsley
1 tablespoon chopped fresh tarragon
8 ounces shredded mozzarella cheese (or a mixture) or 8 ounces provolone cheese (or a mixture)
6 tablespoons finely grated parmesan cheese
80 small pepperoni slices (about 7 oz)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350° F.
  • Cook the lasagna noodles in boiling, salted water 8-9 minutes. Drain and rinse under cold water.
  • Heat a skillet over medium-low heat and add 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Add the garlic and onion and cook 3 minutes, stirring frequently. Add the tomatoes and oregano and season with salt and pepper.
  • Bring to a light simmer then reduce the heat and cook slowly, covered, 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and let cool 10 minutes (or place the sauce in a sealable container and refrigerate until ready to use-in a few hours or overnight).
  • Stir together the ricotta, parsley, and tarragon in a small bowl.
  • To assemble the lasagna, lightly oil a 13 X 9-inch baking dish. Spread 1/2 cup of the tomato marinara in the bottom of the dish and top it with 4 noodles, slightly overlapping. Spread 1/2 of the ricotta-herb mixture over the noodles, then scatter 1/3 of the mozzarella and 2 tablespoons of Parmesan cheese on top.
  • Cover the cheeses with 40 slices of pepperoni (5 rows of 8 pieces).
  • Place 4 more lasagna noodles on top and spread with 1/2 of the remaining tomato sauce and the remaining 1/2 of the ricotta-herb mixture. Scatter another 1/3 of the mozzarella and 2 more tablespoons of Parmesan cheese on top. Cover with the remaining 40 slices of pepperoni.
  • Lay the last 4 noodles on top and spread with the remaining tomato sauce. Scatter the remaining 1/3 of the mozzarella and remaining 2 tablespoons of Parmesan cheese on top and sprinkle with dried oregano.
  • Bake uncovered until the cheese is bubbly and the top begins to brown, 30-35 minutes. Remove and let rest 10 minutes.
  • To serve, cut the lasagna into 6 pieces and serve.
