Ingredients
- 14 pieces of lasagna sheets I used gluten free
- 1 lb Springer Mountain Farms ground chicken breast
- 1 small onion diced small
- 1 red pepper diced small
- 2 tablespoon minced garlic
- 28 oz jar crushed tomatoes
- 2 cups chicken broth
- 1 cup mozzarella cheese
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- 3 teaspoon italian seasoning
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- basil fresh
- 1 tablespoon olive oil I used basil oil but regular works fine as well
Instructions
- In a 10x10 deep sauté pan, sauté the ground chicken on medium high heat with salt and pepper.
- Once the chicken is done, carefully remove it from the pan and drain any excess oil. Then set aside.
- In the same pan, on medium heat, add the olive oil.
- Once the olive oil has heated up, sauté the onion, bell pepper, and minced garlic and seasonings: Italian and garlic powder
- Once the onion and bell pepper are translucent, add the tomato sauce and chicken broth and mix well.
- Then add the meat back in and let the sauce come to a light boil.
- Now add in the lasagna pieces by standing them up across the pan.
- Once they are all in, push them down into the sauce, making sure to cover them and add the lid.
- Once the noodles are done and soft, remove the lid and add the cheese and fresh basil. Allow this to cook for 3 to 5 minutes until the cheese has melted.
- Top with fresh basil and enjoy!

Notes
Storage
- Refrigerate for up to 3 days in an airtight container.
- Reheat the entire dish in a skillet over medium-low heat or microwave individual portions at 1-minute intervals.
- If your sauce is too thick at the end, slowly use the reserved pasta water to thin it out. I recommend only one to two tablespoons at a time, so it doesn't become runny.
- Always add salt to your pasta water before boiling, to prevent the pasta from sticking. Additionally, you can run cold water over it after cooking.
