Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 small yellow onion, finely chopped (about 1/3 cup)
1 clove garlic, minced
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
8 ounces ground beef
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
One (12-ounce) jar marinara sauce
1 large egg
1 cup (8 ounces) ricotta
3 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
3 tablespoons chopped fresh basil
1 cup shredded mozzarella
1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan
5 sheets no-boil lasagna noodles

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Heat the olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the onion, garlic and 1/2 teaspoon salt and saute until the onion is translucent and softened, stirring occasionally, about 4 minutes. Add the ground beef and use a wooden spoon to break it into pieces. Cook, stirring occasionally, until no longer pink, 4 to 6 minutes. Add the oregano and cook 1 minute. Stir in the marinara and let simmer while you make the ricotta mixture.
  • Lightly beat the egg in a medium bowl. Stir in the ricotta, parsley, basil, 1/2 cup mozzarella and 1/2 cup Parmesan until combined.
  • Begin to layer the lasagna, spread 2 tablespoons marinara sauce evenly over the bottom of an 8 1/2-by-4 1/2-inch loaf pan. Cover with 1 lasagna noodle. Spread on 1/3 cup of the ricotta mixture followed by 1/2 cup marinara sauce. Top with another noodle. Repeat layering 4 more times, ending with the sauce. Top the final layer with the remaining 1/2 cup mozzarella and 2 tablespoons Parmesan. Bake until the noodles are tender and the cheese is melted and bubbly, about 30 minutes. Let stand 10 minutes before serving.

CROWD-SOURCED MEAT LASAGNA



Crowd-Sourced Meat Lasagna image

There are very few dishes that taste equally as good, if not better, on the second day as they do on the first. Lasagna is one of them. It takes a bit of effort to make, but with your help we've created a great recipe for this layered dish. In my first question to you about this recipe, I asked what direction we were going for the noodles. When 64% of you said you wanted to use OG (dried) lasagna noodles, I knew we were in for a classic version. Make no mistake, this is a meat lasagna, because 84% of you wanted to push the veggies aside. Which brings me to the cheese: This lasagna is loaded with so much of it, I expect to see plenty of cheese pulls on social media (tag me)! Mozzarella and ricotta were the top picks, so we piled them on - along with a dusting of Parmesan. Once you bake your lasagna, try this tip: Use the tines of a fork to perforate the cheesy top into squares so you don't drag your cheese along with the knife when you're serving it. And of course, don't forget to follow me @SunnyAnderson on Twitter to catch the next poll.

Time 2h30m

Yield 10 to 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for the dish
1 onion, chopped
3 cloves garlic, chopped
2 teaspoons dried oregano
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 pound ground beef
8 ounces sweet Italian sausage, casings removed if links
1/4 cup tomato paste
1/4 cup dry vermouth or white wine
1 28-ounce can crushed tomatoes
Pinch of sugar, as needed
Kosher salt
12 lasagna noodles (about 10 ounces; not oven-ready or no-boil)
2 large eggs
1 32-ounce container whole-milk ricotta cheese
2/3 cup plus 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/4 cup finely chopped fresh parsley
Freshly ground pepper
2 8-ounce bags shredded mozzarella cheese (about 4 cups)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400˚ F. Rub the bottom and sides of a deep 9-by-13-inch baking dish (about 5 quarts) with olive oil. Set aside.
  • Make the sauce: Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the onion, garlic, 1 teaspoon oregano and a pinch each of salt and pepper. Cook, stirring, until golden, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the beef and sausage and cook, breaking up the meat into crumbles with a spoon, until no longer pink, about 5 minutes. Stir in the tomato paste and cook until everything is well coated and the tomato paste is a shade darker, about 2 minutes. Add the vermouth and cook, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot, until almost dry. Add the crushed tomatoes, 1 1/2 cups water, the remaining 1 teaspoon oregano, 1 teaspoon salt and a generous amount of pepper. Bring to a simmer, reduce the heat to low and simmer gently until the sauce reduces slightly, 20 to 25 minutes. Season with salt and pepper; add a pinch of sugar if the tomatoes taste sharp.
  • Meanwhile, cook the noodles: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the noodles and cook, stirring, until just al dente and pliable, about 6 minutes. Transfer to a colander; run cool water over the noodles and separate them.
  • Make the filling: Lightly beat the eggs in a medium bowl. Add the ricotta, 2/3 cup Parmesan, the parsley, 3/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper and stir until combined.
  • Assemble the lasagna: Spread a thin layer of sauce (about 1 cup) in the bottom of the baking dish. Top with 3 noodles, laying them lengthwise. Top the noodles with one-quarter of the remaining sauce (about 2 cups). Dollop one-third of the ricotta mixture (about 1 1/2 cups) on top and spread in an even layer. Top with 3/4 cup mozzarella and 1 tablespoon Parmesan. Repeat these layers two more times (noodles, sauce, ricotta mixture, mozzarella and parmesan). For the last layer, add the remaining 3 noodles, sauce, mozzarella and Parmesan.
  • Cover the baking dish with foil, sealing the edges (do not press the foil into the cheese). Bake until the lasagna is hot and bubbly, 35 to 40 minutes. Uncover and continue baking until golden brown, 20 to 30 more minutes. Let cool at least 20 minutes before slicing.

Tips:

- Use a large skillet that is oven-safe. This will allow you to cook the lasagna in one pan, making it easy to clean up. - Layer the ingredients carefully. Start with a layer of sauce, then noodles, then cheese, and so on. Repeat the layers until you have used up all of the ingredients. - Don't overcook the noodles. They should be cooked al dente, or slightly firm to the bite. - Use a variety of cheeses. This will give the lasagna a more complex flavor. - Add some vegetables to the lasagna. This will make it a healthier and more nutritious dish. - Cover the lasagna with foil before baking. This will help to prevent the top from getting too brown. - Let the lasagna rest for 15 minutes before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld together. ###

Conclusion:

One-pan lasagna is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It is also a great way to use up leftover ingredients. With a few simple tips, you can make a lasagna that is sure to impress your family and friends.
