Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
  • 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 large sweet onions, thinly sliced
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • ¼ cup (½ stick / 57 g) unsalted butter
  • 3 teaspoons garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon pepper
  • ¼ teaspoon crushed red pepper
  • 2 cups (476 g) heavy cream
  • 1 cup (100 g) parmesan cheese, grated
  • 9 lasagna noodles, cooked al dente according to package instructions
  • 1 ½ cups (369 g) ricotta cheese
  • 2 cups (280 g) rotisserie chicken, chopped
  • 2 cups (226 g) gruyere cheese, shredded, divided
  • ½ cup (50 g) parmesan cheese, grated
  • 1 ½ cups (45 g) spinach, chopped, divided
  • parsley, chopped for garnish

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • Spray a 9×13-inch baking dish with nonstick spray. Set aside.
  • In a large skillet, combine unsalted butter and olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced sweet onions along with kosher salt and black pepper, and cook until they become soft and caramelized, about 20 minutes.
  • Stir in garlic, extra salt, pepper, and crushed red pepper. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.
  • Reduce heat and add heavy cream and 1 cup of parmesan cheese. Stir until the cheese melts, then remove from heat.
  • In a mixing bowl, combine ricotta cheese, chopped rotisserie chicken, half of the gruyere cheese, and half of the chopped spinach. Mix thoroughly.
  • Spread a layer of the onion mixture on the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
  • Take a cooked lasagna noodle, fill it with the ricotta mixture, then roll it up and place it seam-side down in the baking dish. Repeat until all noodles are filled and placed in the dish.
  • Pour the remaining onion mixture over the rolled lasagna. Top with remaining gruyere cheese, parmesan cheese, and chopped spinach.
  • Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 45 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.
  • Let it cool slightly, garnish with parsley, and serve.

Notes

For added flavor, use flavored rotisserie chicken or sauté your own chicken with seasonings.
Feel free to add more vegetables like mushrooms or bell peppers to the ricotta mixture for extra nutrition.
