It pairs perfectly with a simple salad and garlic bread for an easy weeknight dinner. It would also be a great make-ahead pick for your next potluck event.<\/p>\n<p>The homemade white sauce is what takes this lasagna to the next level. This sauce is a riff of a classic <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/how-to-make-bechamel\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/how-to-make-bechamel\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">bechamel sauce<\/a>, one of the five mother sauces of French cuisine. To it, we add savory chicken stock and two types of cheese for a serious flavor boost.<\/p>\n<p>You could certainly cook up some chicken to use in this recipe, but we&#8217;re always looking for ways to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/ways-to-turn-rotisserie-chicken-into-dinner\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/ways-to-turn-rotisserie-chicken-into-dinner\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">turn rotisserie chicken into dinner<\/a>, and here&#8217;s one perfect place for that. You could also use canned chicken in a pinch. Just make sure to drain it well so the lasagna doesn\u2019t turn out watery.<\/p>\n<h2>Ingredients for Chicken Lasagna<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Cooked chicken<\/strong>: Use precooked chicken, or cook the chicken fresh. Wondering <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/how-to-cook-chicken\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/how-to-cook-chicken\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">how to cook chicken<\/a> for this recipe? Use your favorite method: Grill the chicken to infuse it with a smoky vibe, or make it quickly in the air fryer or Instant Pot.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Frozen spinach<\/strong>: After thawing, squeeze the spinach well to remove excess moisture. Otherwise, the lasagna can become watery. If you prefer to start with fresh spinach, cook it first using an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/easy-sauteed-spinach\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/easy-sauteed-spinach\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">easy sauteed spinach<\/a> recipe. One 10-ounce package of frozen spinach will yield about 1-1\/2 cups. To use fresh spinach, substitute 1-1\/2 pounds per package.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Lasagna noodles<\/strong>: We use cooked lasagna noodles for this recipe, but you could easily swap in no-cook lasagna noodles without needing to adjust the liquid or cooking time.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Cheese sauce<\/strong>: We make a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/how-to-make-roux\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/how-to-make-roux\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">roux<\/a> with flour and butter, which thickens the chicken broth and milk into a creamy concoction. Then, we add shredded mozzarella, Parmesan cheese and a few dried herbs to give it a stellar finish.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Ricotta cheese<\/strong>: We like ricotta cheese here because it\u2019s richer and smoother than <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/is-cottage-cheese-good-for-you\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/is-cottage-cheese-good-for-you\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">cottage cheese<\/a>. If you\u2019re a bigger fan of the latter, feel free to use it instead; we recommend first straining it through a mesh strainer to remove the extra moisture.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Directions<\/h2>\n<h3>Step 1: Start the cheese sauce<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-1930808\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Make-the-Cheese-Sauce-for-Chicken-Cheese-Lasagna-FT23_152_ST_1017_1-TMB-Studio-DH-TOH.jpg?fit=700%2C467\" alt=\"Make The Cheese Sauce For Chicken Cheese Lasagna Ft23 152 St 1017 1 Tmb Studio\" width=\"700\" height=\"467\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">Taste Recipes<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Preheat the oven to 350\u00b0F.

The creamy sauce is infused with onion, garlic, and herbs. We finish it with mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses for maximum cheesiness.<\/p>\n<h3>What do you serve with chicken lasagna?<\/h3>\n<p>Chicken lasagna is filling on its own, but you could also pair it with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/quick-easy-side-dishes\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/quick-easy-side-dishes\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">easy side dishes<\/a>.

Another way to prevent a watery lasagna is to cook the lasagna uncovered. This lets the excess moisture evaporate as it cooks.<\/p>\n<p>Also, one of our top tips for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/how-to-cook-pasta\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/how-to-cook-pasta\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">cooking pasta<\/a>: Don&#8217;t rinse your noodles after you cook them (doing so removes the starches that help the sauce cling to the noodles). Instead, lay them in a single layer on a lightly oiled baking sheet.<\/p>\n<h3>How do you assemble chicken lasagna?<\/h3>\n<p>We recommend spreading a layer of sauce on the bottom of the baking pan. The sauce prevents the noodles from sticking. Then, add layers of lasagna noodles, ricotta cheese, spinach, chicken and cheese sauce. The final layer features the remaining cheese sauce and Parmesan cheese, giving the dish a gorgeous, golden-brown appearance.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Our chicken lasagna features a rich, creamy cheese sauce and plenty of spinach.
