Ingredients

  • 4 ounces thinly sliced pancetta, cut into strips
  • 3 ounces thinly sliced prosciutto or deli ham, cut into strips
  • 3 cups shredded rotisserie chicken
  • 5 tablespoons unsalted butter, cubed
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 4 cups whole milk

  • 2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley, divided
  • 1/4 teaspoon coarsely ground pepper
  • Pinch ground nutmeg
  • 9 no-cook lasagna noodles
  • 1-1/2 cups shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
  • 1-1/2 cups shredded Parmesan cheese

Directions

  1. In a large skillet, cook pancetta and prosciutto over medium heat until browned. Drain on paper towels. Transfer to a large bowl; add chicken and toss to combine.
  2. For sauce, in a large saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Stir in flour until smooth; gradually whisk in milk. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly; cook and stir 1-2 minutes or until thickened. Remove from heat; stir in 1/2 cup Asiago cheese, 1 tablespoon parsley and seasonings.
  3. Preheat oven to 375°. Spread 1/2 cup sauce into a greased 13x9-in. baking dish. Layer with 3 noodles, a third of the remaining sauce, a third of the meat mixture, and 1/2 cup each Asiago, mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses. Repeat layers twice.

Test Kitchen Tips
  • Swap bacon for the pancetta if you want a little smoky action in your lasagna. Mmmmmm.
  • Rotisserie chicken keeps this dish ultra simple, but really, any leftover pulled or cubed chicken will do.
  • Make it vegetarian by subbing 3 cups of sauteed vegetables for the meat. We like a combo of mushrooms and squash. Zucchini and butternut work well, too.
