Instructions
Creating your Gluten Free Garlic Chicken Lasagna can be straightforward if you follow these steps:
1. Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Cook Noodles: Prepare your gluten-free lasagna noodles according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
3. Cook Chicken: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chicken breasts and cook until golden brown, about 5-7 minutes per side.
4. Add Onions and Garlic: Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the skillet. In the same skillet, add chopped onion and minced garlic. Sauté until softened, about 3-4 minutes.
5. Add Tomatoes and Herbs: Chop the cooked chicken into bite-sized pieces. Add it back to the skillet along with diced tomatoes, basil, oregano, salt, and pepper. Stir and let simmer for about 10 minutes to combine the flavors.
6. Prepare Cheese Mixture: In a bowl, combine ricotta cheese, 1 cup mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, eggs, salt, and pepper. Mix until smooth.
7. Assemble Lasagna: In a 9×13 inch baking dish, spread a thin layer of the chicken mixture. Place a layer of gluten-free noodles over the chicken. Then, add a layer of the cheese mixture. Repeat layers, finishing with a layer of chicken mixture on top.
8. Add Toppings: Sprinkle the remaining mozzarella cheese on top of the final layer.
9. Bake: Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake for 30 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes, until the cheese is bubbly and golden.
10. Cool: Once out of the oven, let the lasagna cool for 15 minutes before serving. This allows for easier slicing and enhances layers’ consistency.
By following these steps, you’ll create a delightful dish that’s both gluten-free and packed with flavor!
