CHICKEN FLORENTINE LASAGNA

Steps:

• Pre-cook your lasagna noodles according to the package directions. Set aside.

• Stir until cheese has melted and add chicken breast and spinach. Set aside.
• In a small bowl mix ricotta, 1/3 cup parmesan cheese, 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese and egg until well blended.
• Begin to layer the lasagna (I used a deep 9x9 stoneware dish I had, but a 13x9 dish would work as well).
• Spread a small amount of sauce over the bottom of your pan.
• Cover sauce with one layer of pasta.
• Spread 1/2 the ricotta cheese mixture and 1/3 of the remaining mozzarella over the pasta.
• Cover the cheese with 1/3 of the remaining sauce.

• Cover the cheese with 1/2 of the remaining sauce.
• Add a final layer of pasta.
• Cover the pasta with the remaining sauce and cover the pan with foil.
• You will have some mozzarella and parmesan cheese leftover. Reserve this for later.
• Bake the lasagna at 350 degrees for 1 hour. Uncover the dish and sprinkle the remaining cheeses over the top.
• Return to the oven for 15-20 minutes or until the cheese is golden and the lasagna is bubbling around the edges.
• Let the lasagna rest for 15-20 minutes before serving.

CHICKEN FLORENTINE ARTICHOKE BAKE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook pasta at a boil, stirring occasionally, for 8 minutes. Add broccoli and cook for 2 more minutes; pasta will be slightly undercooked.
• While the pasta is cooking, melt 1 tablespoon butter in a skillet over medium heat; stir in onion and garlic. Cook and stir until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl.
• Drain pasta and broccoli. Run under cold water and drain again. Add to the onion mixture along with spinach, cooked chicken, sun-dried tomatoes, artichoke hearts, and Italian cheese.
• Melt remaining 2 tablespoons butter in a medium skillet over medium heat until bubbly. Slowly whisk in flour; cook and whisk for 1 minute. Gradually add milk, whisking constantly. Add enough milk to thin the sauce enough so it will coat all ingredients in the bowl; it will thicken more in the oven.
• Pour sauce into the bowl and mix until well combined. Transfer contents to a 9x13-inch baking dish. Sprinkle Parmesan cheese over top.
• Bake, uncovered, in the preheated oven until hot and bubbly, 20 to 30 minutes.
