Author: The Chef
Cuisine: Italian
Recipe type: Lasagna
Ingredients
- Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
- One 16-ounce box lasagna noodles, broken into pieces
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons fresh thyme leaves
- 2½ cups milk (2 percent or whole)
- 2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
- Freshly ground pepper
- 1 rotisserie chicken (about 2 pounds), shredded
- One 15-ounce tub whole milk ricotta cheese
- 12 ounces shredded mozzarella
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- In a large pot of salted water, boil the broken lasagna noodles according to package directions until al dente. Drain and reserve.
- In a medium pot, melt the butter. Once the foaming subsides, add the flour and whisk for about a minute until a roux forms. Add the thyme leaves and whisk another few seconds. Gradually add the milk and keep whisking until a creamy sauce forms, 5 to 8 minutes. Whisk in the lemon juice and season with 1 teaspoon each salt and pepper.
- Pour ½ cup of the sauce in the bottom of a 12-inch cast-iron skillet. Arrange one-third of the noodles on top, then layer with about 1 cup of the chicken, dollop with half the ricotta, sprinkle with ⅓ of the mozzarella and drizzle another 1 cup of the sauce over the cheese. Repeat with another layer of noodles, chicken, ricotta, mozzarella and sauce. Add a final layer of noodles, mozzarella and sauce. Bake until the cheese is browned and bubbly, about 30 minutes.
