Buffalo Chicken Lasagna

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Cook the lasagna noodles according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

In a large bowl, mix together the shredded cooked chicken and Buffalo sauce until the chicken is evenly coated.

In a separate bowl, combine the ricotta cheese, egg, grated Parmesan cheese, and chopped parsley. Mix well.

Spread 1 cup of marinara sauce evenly over the bottom of a 9×13 inch baking dish.

Layer 3 lasagna noodles over the sauce, followed by 1/3 of the Buffalo chicken mixture, 1/3 of the ricotta mixture, and 1 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese.

Repeat the layers twice, ending with the remaining mozzarella cheese on top.

Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake for 25 minutes.

Remove the foil and bake for an additional 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Let the lasagna cool for 10 minutes before serving. Garnish with chopped green onions, if desired.

Enjoy this spicy and comforting Buffalo Chicken Lasagna, a delicious twist on a classic Italian favorite.
