Rotisserie Chicken Lasagna
Ingredients
- 2 whole rotisserie chickens, shredded
- 8 oz sliced mushrooms
- 1 yellow onion
- 12 Tbsp butter
- 4-5 carrots, shredded
- 3 zucchini, shredded
- 15 oz ricotta cheese
- 1 cup feta cheese
- 2 cups shredded mozzarella
- 8 oz Parmigiano Reggiano
- cream sauce
- lasagna noodles
For the Cream Sauce
- 6 Tbsp butter
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 8 cloves garlic, minced
- 16 oz cream cheese, softened
- 4 cups heavy/whipping cream
- 1 tsp salt
- pepper to taste
Instructions
For the Cream Sauce
- Add the butter and onion to a skillet and sauté for 4 to 5 minutes over medium heat.
- Stir in the garlic and cook for about 30 seconds.
- Add the cream cheese, cream, and salt and pepper.Â
- Stir/whisk until the cream cheese has melted. This process should take about 5 minutes. Do not let the sauce get too thick. It should have a similar consistency to Alfredo sauce, and it will thicken more once you take it off the stove and then as it cooks in the oven. Add a splash more cream to thin if needed.
For the Cheese Mixture
- Add the ricotta, feta, and ½ cup of grated Parmigiano Reggiano to a bowl and set asideÂ
- Shred both rotisserie chickens into large bowl.
- In large skillet add 2Â Tbsp butter, chopped yellow onion and mushrooms. Once done, add to the shredded chicken bowl and set aside.Â
- In the same skillet, sauté the shredded carrots with 2 Tbsp butter until soft and set aside in a bowl. Reserve ½ cup. Â
- In the same skillet, add 2 tbsp butter and zucchini and sauté until soft. Add to another small bowl and set aside. Reserve ½ cup. Â

- In a 13 x 9-inch, deep dish casserole pan, spread 1 cup of cream sauce to the bottom of the pan. Add 1 layer of lasagna sheets, ½ of the chicken mixture, 1 cup of cream sauce, ½ of the cheese mixture, and a layer of sauteed carrots. For the next layer, add another layer of lasagna sheets, 1 cup of cream sauce, the remaining chicken mixture, the remaining cheese mixture, a layer of zucchini, and 1 more cup of the cream sauce.
