Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound ground chicken
- 1 cup buffalo sauce
- 1 cup ranch dressing
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup ricotta cheese
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/4 cup chopped green onions
- 12 lasagna noodles
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a skillet, cook the ground chicken over medium heat until fully cooked and no longer pink. Drain any excess fat.
- Stir in the buffalo sauce and simmer for 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
- In a bowl, mix together the ricotta cheese, grated Parmesan cheese, and chopped green onions. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- In a baking dish, spread a layer of the buffalo chicken mixture on the bottom.
- Top with a layer of lasagna noodles, followed by a layer of the ricotta cheese mixture.
- Repeat the layers, ending with a final layer of mozzarella cheese on top.
- Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 30 minutes.
- After 30 minutes, remove the foil and bake for an additional 5-10 minutes to allow the cheese to melt and become bubbly.
- Let it cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
Notes
- For extra heat, you can add a little more buffalo sauce to the chicken mixture or sprinkle some crushed red pepper flakes between the layers.
- If you prefer, you can use a different cheese like cheddar for a twist.
- You can prepare this lasagna a day ahead and refrigerate it until you’re ready to bake!
- If you’re looking to cut down on carbs, try using zucchini noodles or gluten-free lasagna noodles.
