Categories     main-dish

Time 50m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

9 lasagna sheets, fresh or dried
1 teaspoon olive oil, plus 1 tablespoon, divided
2 (8.5-ounce) jars sun-dried tomatoes, drained
1 1/2 packed cups fresh basil leaves
1/2 cup grated Parmesan, plus 3/4 cup
1/4 pound pancetta, diced
1 medium onion, diced
2 garlic cloves, minced
4 bunches asparagus, trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces
1 (15-ounce) container whole milk ricotta cheese
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 cups shredded whole milk mozzarella cheese
2 tablespoons butter

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Add 1 teaspoon olive oil. Add the pasta and cook until tender but still firm to the bite, stirring occasionally, about 8 to 10 minutes for dried pasta or 2 to 3 minutes for fresh pasta. Drain pasta.
  • In a food processor combine the sun-dried tomatoes and basil. Pulse until the mixture is combined. Transfer to a small bowl. Stir in 1/2 cup Parmesan. Set aside.
  • In a large skillet brown the pancetta until crisp. Remove from the pan using a slotted spoon. Add 1 tablespoon olive oil, onion, and garlic and cook until tender, about 4 minutes. Add asparagus and cook until tender, about 4 minutes. Transfer the mixture to a large bowl. Add the ricotta, salt, and pepper and stir to combine.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. In a 9 by 13-inch baking dish sprinkle some of the sun-dried tomato mixture on the bottom of the casserole dish. Place some lasagna sheets, then half asparagus mixture. Next sprinkle some mozzarella cheese and some of the remaining 3/4 cup Parmesan. Continue for 1 more layer. Top with lasagna sheets, some sun-dried tomato mixture, mozzarella, and Parmesan. Dot the top with butter. Bake until the ingredients are warm and the cheese is melted, about 25 minutes.

CHICKEN ASPARAGUS HOLLANDAISE LASAGNA



Chicken Asparagus Hollandaise Lasagna image

This lasagna is outrageously delicious! If you prefer more sauce, use 3 packages of Knorr's hollandaise sauce mix. The basil and oregano may be adjusted to suit taste. This lasagna will really fill a 13x9 baking dish very high. I have even used canned sliced mushrooms (about 3-4 cans, very well drained), but I have to say that the fresh is much better. You will really love this dish!

LASAGNA WITH ASPARAGUS AND CHIVES



Lasagna With Asparagus and Chives image

Lasagna doesn't always have to be assembled and baked; it can be thrown together quickly, like a regular pasta dish. Use no-boil lasagna noodles for this deconstructed lasagna. Despite the name, they do require boiling here, but they will be lighter than regular lasagna noodles.

Provided by Martha Rose Shulman

Categories     dinner, easy, quick, weekday, main course

Time 20m

Yield Serves four

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 pound asparagus, trimmed
1/2 cup ricotta
1 garlic clove, finely minced or preferably pureed
2 tablespoons chopped chives or a combination of chives and slivered basil
1/2 pound no-boil lasagna noodles
1/4 cup (1 ounce) freshly grated Parmesan or pecorino romano (or a combination)

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of water to a rolling boil, salt generously and add the asparagus. Meanwhile, fill a bowl with cold water. Boil thin stalks for three minutes, thicker stalks for four to six minutes until tender. Using tongs, remove the asparagus from the pot and transfer to the bowl of cold water. Drain and cut on the diagonal into 3/4-inch lengths.
  • Add the lasagna noodles to the boiling water, and boil until cooked al dente -- firm to the bite. Meanwhile, place the ricotta in a large pasta bowl, and stir in the garlic. When the noodles are done, remove 1/2 cup of the pasta water, and add to the bowl with the ricotta. Mix together well, and add the asparagus, fresh herbs and Parmesan or pecorino to the bowl. Drain the lasagna, and toss with the ricotta mixture. Serve at once.

1 cup heavy cream

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 500 degrees. Cut the tips off each asparagus spear and reserve them. Cut the stalks of asparagus into 1/2" lengths. Marinate the stalks in a plastic bag with the garlic and 3 tablespoons oil in fridge for at least 3 hrs. In a shallow roasting pan, add the stalks and salt to taste and roast them in a shallow baking pan until crisp-tender. About 5-10 minutes. Remove and lower temp to 400 degrees. In a saucepan melt the butter, add the flour and cook the roux over moderate low heat stirring for 3 minutes. Add 1 1/2 cups of the broth and water in a stream, whisking, simmer the mixture for 5 minutes and and whisk in the goat cheese, zest and salt to taste, whisking until the sauce is smooth. Arrange pasta in 13" x 9" buttered glass pan and spread with 1/4 of the sauce. Top the sauce with 1/4 of the roasted asparagus and sprinkle with 1/3 cup of the Parmesan. Repeat and end with a layer of pasta. In a bowl beat the cream with a pinch of salt until it holds soft peaks. Arrange the reserved asparagus tips on the pasta, spoon the cream on top and spread evenly with the back of a spoon. Sprinkle the remaining 1/3 cup Parmesan on top. Add the remaining 1 cup of broth to casserole dish. Bake the lasagna covered for 20 minutes and uncovered for 10 minutes or until it is golden and bubbling. Let stand at least 10 minutes before serving.

CHICKEN ASPARAGUS HOLLANDAISE LASAGNA RECIPE



Chicken Asparagus Hollandaise Lasagna Recipe image

Provided by tunes

Number Of Ingredients 14

3 cups fresh sliced mushrooms
2 1/2 cups chopped onions
3 cups prepared knorr's hollandaise sauce (2 packages will be about 3 cups prepared)
8 -10 lasagna noodles, cooked to firm-tender, and drained
2 1/2 lbs cooked chicken or 2 1/2 lbs turkey breast, thinly sliced
salt and black pepper
1 teaspoon dried basil (or to taste)
1 teaspoon dried oregano (or to taste)
3 -4 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
1 -1 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
1 lb fresh asparagus, cooked until JUST firm-tender (do not overcook, as the asparagus will cook more in the oven)
Change Measurements: US | Metric
Directions:Prep Time: 40 mins
Total Time: 1 1/4 hr

Steps:

  • 1 Set oven to 350 degrees. 2 Grease a 13 x 9-inch baking dish. 3 Sauté the mushrooms and onions in butter until the mushrooms release their moisture and the onions are soft (not brown). 4 Spread a small amount of prepared Hollandaise sauce on the bottom of the baking dish. 5 Place a layer of cooked lasagna noodles evenly over the sauce. 6 Cover the noodles with the chicken or turkey. 7 Sprinkle with salt and pepper. 8 Then top with HALF of the mushroom/onion mixture. 9 Then HALF of the remaining Hollandaise sauce. 10 Sprinkle with HALF of the basil and oregano. 11 Top the spices with HALF of the mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses. 12 Then top the cheeses with ALL of the asparagus. 13 Repeat the layers (omitting a layer of asparagus), ending with the cheeses. 14 Bake uncovered for 35 minutes, or until bubbly. 15 Let stand about 10-15 (or more) minutes before slicing.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh, slender asparagus. Thicker asparagus can be tough and fibrous.
  • Trim the asparagus spears. Cut off the tough ends of the spears, about 1 inch from the bottom.
  • Blanch the asparagus spears. This will help them retain their color and crispness. To blanch asparagus, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the asparagus spears and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until they are bright green and tender. Remove the asparagus spears from the boiling water and immediately transfer them to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process.
  • Prepare the lasagna noodles according to the package directions.
  • Make the cheese filling. In a large bowl, combine the ricotta cheese, Parmesan cheese, eggs, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.
  • Assemble the lasagna. To assemble the lasagna, start by spreading a thin layer of cheese filling on the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking dish. Top with a layer of lasagna noodles, then a layer of asparagus spears, and then another layer of cheese filling. Repeat the layers until you have used up all of the ingredients. End with a layer of cheese filling.
  • Bake the lasagna. Bake the lasagna in a preheated 375 degree Fahrenheit oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the lasagna is heated through.
  • Let the lasagna cool slightly before serving. This will help the lasagna to set and make it easier to cut.

Conclusion:

Asparagus lasagna is a delicious and elegant dish that is perfect for a special occasion. With its creamy cheese filling, tender asparagus spears, and crispy lasagna noodles, this lasagna is sure to impress your guests. Follow these tips to make the best asparagus lasagna possible.
