This chicken lasagna tastes incredible good. The sauce is really delicious and very flavorful. The Parmesan on top gets such a wonderful taste and color while baking and complements so good this lasagna. To make things easier, you can make the chicken sauce a day before, refrigerate and before assembling the lasagna simply warm it a bit. All you have to do the next day is to make the Bechamel Sauce and lasagna is ready to be assembled. Hope you will give this recipe a try, I am sure you will love it too: ) Ingredients Makes about 9-12 servings 9-12 lasagna noodles Chicken Sauce 2 tbsp olive oil 1 large onion 2 carrots, finely chopped 2 celery sticks, finely chopped 2 cloves garlic, minced or finely chopped 1 pound (500g) ground chicken 28 oz (800g) tomato puree 1/4 cup (50g) tomato paste 3 tsp sugar 1 tsp oregano 4-5 fresh basil leaves, chopped (or 1 tsp dry basil) 3/4 cup (200 ml) white wine salt and freshly ground black pepper Bechamel sauce 1/2 stick (60 g) butter 1/3 cup (40 g) flour 2 1/4 cup (560 ml) milk 1/2 tsp nutmeg salt and freshly ground black pepper Topping 1 cup (100g, Parmesan, freshly grated Directions 1. Prepare chicken sauce. In a large pan heat oil over medium high heat. Cook the onion, garlic, carrot and celery over medium heat until softened, stirring constantly. 2. Add the chicken and cook until it changes its color. Break up any lumps of meat using a fork. 3. Add tomato paste, tomato puree, wine, sugar, oregano, basil, salt and pepper to taste. Cover, bring to a boil, reduce the heat and simmer for about 1 1/2 hrs. Set aside. You can also make the sauce a day before, and refrigerate after it cools. Before assembling the lasagna, warm the sauce as it needs to be a bit warm. 4. Prepare the Bechamel sauce. In a medium sauce pan, melt the butter over medium-low heat. Add the flour and stir until smooth, for about 1 minute, until bubbling. Remove from heat and gradually stir in milk, until mixture is smooth. 5. Return to heat and stir constantly until the sauce boils and begin to thicken. Add nutmeg, salt and pepper and set aside until ready to use. Give it a stir from time to time so it doesn't make a skin on the surface. 6. Preheat oven to 350 F (180C. Grease a 8 X 12 inch (20x30cm)lasagna dish with olive oil or melted butter ( 9x13 inch dish works as well. I used Barilla noodles who didn't required precooking. If your noodles require precooking follow the instructions from the manufacturer and drain well before use. 7. Assemble the lasagna. Spread a layer of chicken sauce (about 1/3 of the sauce) over the bottom of the baking dish. Spread a thin layer of Bechamel (about 1/2 cup of Bechamel sauce. Place a single layer of noodles over top and press gently. Depending on noodles size might be used 3 to 4 noodles per layer. Repeat spreading half of the remained chicken sauce over the noodles. Spread 1/2 cup Bechamel sauce on top. Add a new layer of noodles, pressing gently. Spread the remained chicken sauce, another 1/2 cup Bechamel and add the last layer of noodles. 8. Top the last layer of noodles with the remaining Bechamel sauce and sprinkle the freshly grated Parmesan over the top. Cover with aluminum foil making sure it doesn't touch the surface. 9. Cook for about 25 minutes covered with foil, and another 25 minutes without. If necessary, broil for few minutes until the cheese has the desired golden brown look. 10. Set aside for about 15 minutes before serving. Serve alongside some fresh salad, or even some toasted bread. It is delicious.

Hi, I like all your recipes they look delicious and to be honest I've made some of them I'm Italian living in Ireland so I can say that this recipe is nice but I want to give you a trick to make the best of it The lasagna noddles you'd better to boil ( in the water you can add 1 TBS of oil, so the pasta doesn't get stick) but just from 1 to 2 mins and then put them in a bowl with cold water So the lasagna noodles are cooked instead of using them dry. Let's give it a go and then let me know. Sisi xx

Wow, I have seen many Lasagna recipes but this one was so special and of course romantic as well. The description and the music and then the song at the end was all magic in it. On the top of that your such a pretty face. This is all source of inspiration for me and I am an easy victim to fall in love with such a beautiful Lasagna recipe story and environment. What a delicious recipe, absolutely awesome and fantastic. Love it.

This does look fab and makes me want to make a lasagne as I haven't made on in a while although I would give the tin foil at the end a complete miss as the chicken is already cooked through so you only need to cook out the Lasagne sheet which only takes 25 mins and while it is cooking the cheese is melting and browning at the same time. Superb video though. You make it look easy and delightful. I am drooling.

E' una bestemmia per la cucina italiana. Non tanto per gli ingredienti ma per la tecnica. Il vino va messo prima del concentrato di pomodoro in maniera tale che la parte alcolica, del vino, evapori. Per il resto transeat. Anche in merito alla besciamella ci sarebbe molto da dire. Sospendo la visione per evitarmi inutili mal di pancia.

I tried to cook this and it's soooo delicious I loved it. The only problem I had was that I didn't cover all the pasta with sauce, so it was a little bit uncooked. I will be more careful next time. Thank you

Whenever I make this, the chicken mixture ends up being a little watery making he lasagna watery as the chicken sheds water while cooking. What should I do to keep it thick? Any binding agent other than flour?

Your video was really helpful. I tried it and turned out great thanks. Although I wanted to ask if this would work with mozzarella cheese as well instead of parmesan that you used at the end?
