Ingredients
  

For the Chicken:

  • 2 large chicken breasts about 1.5 lbs, cooked and shredded or cubed
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • Salt and pepper to taste

For the Cheese Filling:

  • 15 ounces ricotta cheese full-fat
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 large egg lightly beaten
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

For the Lasagna:

  • 9 lasagna noodles oven-ready or regular, cooked if needed
  • 24 ounces Alfredo sauce high-quality, store-bought or homemade
  • 8 ounces mozzarella cheese shredded
  • Fresh parsley chopped (for garnish - optional)

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
  • Prepare Chicken: Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add cooked chicken, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat and heat through.
  • Make Cheese Filling: In a medium bowl, combine ricotta cheese, Parmesan cheese, egg, nutmeg, garlic powder, and salt. Mix well.
  • Assemble Lasagna: Spread a thin layer of Alfredo sauce on the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
  • Layer 1: Arrange 3 lasagna noodles over the sauce.
  • Layer 2: Spread half of the ricotta cheese mixture over the noodles.
  • Layer 3: Top with half of the seasoned chicken and 1/3 of the mozzarella cheese.
  • Layer 4: Drizzle with 1/3 of the remaining Alfredo sauce.
  • Repeat: Repeat layers 1-4 one more time.
  • Top Layer: Arrange the final 3 noodles on top. Spread with the remaining Alfredo sauce and sprinkle with the remaining mozzarella cheese.
  • Bake: Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake for 30 minutes.
  • Uncover: Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the lasagna is heated through.
  • Rest: Let the lasagna rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing and serving.
  • Garnish: Garnish with fresh parsley, if desired.
