BROCCOLI CHICKEN LASAGNA
I came up with this when I didn't have any tomato sauce and tried using a white sauce and it turned out really good! I don't really care for broccoli, so I will cut up the broccoli into small pieces when made into the sauce. Being a Latter Day Saint, we have a three hour church service, so I like to make this on a Saturday and on Sunday, just before we leave for church I will put it in the oven straight from the fridge and bake at 250-275 degrees and when we come home from church, it is cooked well and ready to eat. Therefore, this lasagna can be made well in advanced!

Tips:
- Prep the Ingredients: Before starting, ensure all ingredients are prepped and measured accurately. This will streamline the cooking process and prevent any interruptions.
- Cook the Noodles Al Dente: When boiling the lasagna noodles, cook them slightly less than the recommended time on the package to ensure they retain a slight bite. This will prevent them from becoming soggy when layered in the lasagna.
- Shred the Chicken Ahead of Time: To save time, consider shredding the chicken beforehand. This can be done using a food processor, a stand mixer with a paddle attachment, or by hand using two forks.
- Use Fresh Vegetables: Opt for fresh broccoli florets and chopped onion to ensure the best flavor and texture in your lasagna.
- Make a Béchamel Sauce: Prepare a creamy béchamel sauce from scratch using butter, flour, and milk. This homemade sauce will add a rich and flavorful element to the lasagna.
- Layer Correctly: When assembling the lasagna, start with a layer of sauce at the bottom of the baking dish. Then, layer cooked lasagna noodles, chicken, broccoli, and a generous amount of béchamel sauce. Repeat these layers until you reach the top of the dish. Finish with a sprinkling of mozzarella and Parmesan cheese.
- Bake Thoroughly: Bake the lasagna for the recommended time or until the top is golden brown and the lasagna is bubbling around the edges. Allow it to rest for 10-15 minutes before serving to let the flavors meld and the lasagna set.
Conclusion:
This Chicken Broccoli Lasagna recipe offers a delightful combination of flavors and textures in a hearty and comforting dish. By following the tips mentioned above, you can ensure a successful lasagna that is both delicious and visually appealing. Enjoy this delectable dish with your family and friends for a memorable meal.
