SUMMER STOVE-TOP LASAGNA RECIPE BY TASTY



Summer Stove-Top Lasagna Recipe by Tasty image

Here's what you need: olive oil, garlic, dried oregano, dried parsley, swiss chard, kosher salt, unsalted butter, garlic, all-purpose flour, warm milk, kosher salt, freshly ground black pepper, cayenne, nutmeg, olive oil, warm water, no boil lasagna noodles, frozen peas, shredded mozzarella cheese, shredded parmesan cheese, fresh basil

Provided by Rie McClenny

Categories     Dinner

Time 55m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 21

2 teaspoons olive oil
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 teaspoons dried oregano
1 teaspoon dried parsley
1 bunch swiss chard, roughly chopped, washed and dried
½ teaspoon kosher salt
6 tablespoons unsalted butter
3 cloves garlic, minced
6 tablespoons all-purpose flour
4 cups warm milk
2 teaspoons kosher salt, plus more to taste
½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
⅛ teaspoon cayenne
1 pinch nutmeg, freshly grated
1 tablespoon olive oil
warm water, for soaking noodles
9 oz no boil lasagna noodles
10 oz frozen peas, divided
2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese, divided
1 cup shredded parmesan cheese, divided
½ cup fresh basil

Steps:

  • Heat the olive oil in a 12-inch (30 cm) cast-iron skillet over medium-low heat. Add the garlic and cook for about 1 minute, until the garlic starts to soften but not brown. Add the oregano and parsley and cook for about 30 seconds more, until fragrant. Add the Swiss chard and salt and cook until the chard wilts, 2-3 minutes. Remove from skillet and set aside. Wipe out the pan.
  • Make the béchamel: Melt the butter in the same skillet over medium-low heat. Add the garlic to the pan and cook until softened and fragrant, but not browned, about 1 minute. Add the flour and cook, whisking constantly, for about 2 minutes, until the mixture bubbles but has not yet started to brown.
  • Slowly stream in the warm milk, starting with just a few splashes, whisking constantly. The mixture will be very clumpy at first, but will eventually come together as a thin sauce. Cook until the mixture begins to simmer, and then reduce the heat to low and cook, still stirring frequently, until the sauce thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon, about 10 minutes. Add the salt, pepper, cayenne, and nutmeg and whisk to incorporate. Pour the béchamel into a liquid measuring cup, but do not scrape out the pan. You want a thin coating of sauce left in the bottom of the skillet.
  • Assemble the lasagna: Add the olive oil to the pan and whisk into the béchamel.
  • Pour warm water into a glass baking dish. Dip each lasagna noodle in the warm water for a few seconds, then lay in the skillet, breaking as needed to fit. Once you have a single layer at the bottom of the pan, top with ⅓ of the béchamel, ⅓ of the frozen peas, ⅓ of the sautéed Swiss chard, ⅓ of the mozzarella, and ⅓ of the Parmesan. Repeat to make 2 more layers with the remaining ingredients.
  • Cover the skillet with 2-3 layers of foil and seal tightly to ensure no steam escapes.
  • Cook the lasagna over medium-low heat for 30-45 minutes, until a toothpick slides easily through the noodles.
  • Uncover the lasagna and top with the basil. Serve immediately.
  • Enjoy!

Tips:

  • Use a large pot or Dutch oven to cook the lasagna noodles. This will prevent them from sticking together.
  • If you don't have a pot or Dutch oven large enough to cook the noodles, you can break them in half before cooking them.
  • Cook the noodles according to the package directions. Be careful not to overcook them, or they will become mushy.
  • While the noodles are cooking, prepare the sauce and cheese filling.
  • To make the sauce, brown the ground beef in a large skillet over medium heat. Drain off the excess grease.
  • Add the onion, green pepper, and garlic to the skillet and cook until softened.
  • Stir in the tomatoes, tomato sauce, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Bring to a simmer and cook for 15 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened.
  • To make the cheese filling, combine the ricotta cheese, Parmesan cheese, eggs, parsley, and salt and pepper to taste in a large bowl.
  • To assemble the lasagna, spread a thin layer of sauce in the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking dish.
  • Top with a layer of noodles, then a layer of cheese filling, and then a layer of sauce.
  • Repeat the layers until you have used all of the ingredients.
  • Bake the lasagna in a preheated 375 degree Fahrenheit oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the sauce is heated through.
  • Let the lasagna cool for 10 minutes before serving.
