Tuscan Chicken Potato Lasagna Recipes

TUSCAN CHICKEN POTATO LASAGNA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 180°C360°F.
• Coat the chicken breasts with the paprika, salt, pepper and oil. Fry them in a hot pan until browned on both sides, then oven bake for a further 5 minutes until cooked through. Shred with two forks.
• Meanwhile, heat the butter until foaming and fry the garlic. Add the flour and stir, cooking for a further minute. Pour over the chicken stock gradually, beating it in with a wooden spoon each time to make a thick sauce.
• Pour in the double cream and stir everything together, then add the sundried tomatoes, cooked spinach, parmesan and Italian herbs. Add the cooked chicken and take off the heat.
• Using a mandolin or a sharp knife slice the potatoes as thinly as possible. Lay them in an even layer along the bottom of a greased lasagna dish. Top with a layer of mozzarella slices and spread a third of the cream chicken mix on top. Repeat three times, finishing with a layer of the cheese.
• Bake for around one and a half hours until cooked through.

SLOW COOKER TUSCAN CHICKEN

Steps:

• Spray the interior of the slow cooker with cooking spray, or use a plastic liner.
• Place chicken thighs in the bottom of the slow cooker and sprinkle with Italian seasoning, red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper.
• Evenly layer sun-dried tomatoes and sliced olives over the seasoned chicken.
• Heat olive oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Add onion to the hot oil and cook until onions begin to get tender, 3 to 4 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.
• Using a slotted spoon, transfer onions to the slow cooker and spread evenly over the sun-dried tomatoes.
• Return the skillet to medium heat and add cream, stirring until all the olive oil is incorporated and the sauce begins to bubble. Pour cream sauce evenly over the onions.
• Cover slow cooker and cook on High for 3 to 4 hours or Low for 6 to 7 hours if you prefer a longer cook time.
• Remove cooked chicken and vegetables to a serving platter. Add torn spinach to the sauce and cook until wilted, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove spinach from sauce with a slotted spoon and place on top of the chicken and vegetables.
• The sauce will be a bit thin. If you like a thicker sauce, pour into a small saucepan over medium heat. Combine 2 tablespoons cornstarch and 2 tablespoons water in a small bowl. Stir until all the lumps are gone, to create a slurry. Add slurry to the sauce and cook over medium-high heat, stirring constantly, until bubbly and thickened, 5 to 7 minutes.
• Spoon sauce and spinach over the dish and serve warm.

Bake for 35 to 40 minutes or until cheese is melted and bubbly.
