Chicken n' Vegetable Lasagne



I am and have always been a big fan of lasagne. I haven't known this lasagne recipe for many years, but it has become my absolute favourite! It's so good that my friends almost order me to make it every time they visit me, so I thought I would share it with you! It's very easy to make, it tastes absolutely amazing, it can be made vegetarian, it's healthy compared to normal lasagne ... I could continue forever without saying one bad thing about this lasagne, honestly! This lasagne converted my non-lasagne-fan friend to a lasagne lover! If this doesn't get you to try it, I don't know what will!


INGREDIENTS 

Chicken - Vegetable sauce (C-V)       
• 200 g onions • 2 cloves of garlic • 500 g chicken, minced • 300 g squash • 300 g carrots • 100 g parsnip • 100 g mushrooms • 1 tin chopped tomatoes • 2 vegetable broth • 2 dl milk • 2 tsp chili spice • 2 tsp rosemary, dried • 1 tsp paprika • 1 tsp oliveoil 

Others 
• 1 mornay sauce 12% • 175 g mozzarella 10% • Lasagne sheets



With these ingredients you'll have lasagne for about 7 people



INSTRUCTIONS

• Peel and chop onion   
• Peel and rinse zucchini, carrots and parsnips. Grate it on a grater or run it through a food processor 
• Clean the mushrooms and chop them coarsely • 
• Fry the onions in a (large!) cooking pot with the olive oil. Continue frying until the pieces of onion are fairly transparent 
• Add the chicken meat and fry it until it's turning brown 
• Add garlic ( which is pressed through a garlic crusher ), carrots , squash , parsnip and mushrooms. Stir well 
• Now add the chopped tomatoes, milk and broth and spices ( this also includes salt and pepper!) and cook the sauce up 
• Turn down the heat and let the sauce simmer for 20 minutes 
• When 20 minutes has passed, put lasagne sheets and C-V alternately in layers in an ovenware. Start and finish with a layer of C-V • 
• Pour mornay sauce on top of the top layer of C-V and then sprinkle with mozzarella 
• Bake the lasagne on 180°C in ordinary oven (not hot-air ) for about 50 minutes, or until the cheese is golden 

#TIP: Sprinkle with a layer of breadcrumbs between mornay sauce layer and the upper C-V layer. This will give it a really good and delicious texture!

#TIP: Use, instead of minced chicken, chicken fillets. Boil the chicken separately for 20 minutes. Then chop it and add it - without browning - as point five

#TIP: Skip point five to make a delicious vegetarian lasagne



Bon appitite!

  1. This sounds and looks amazing! I really love Lasagne but I always use veggie mince as I hate the taste and texture of beef mince - why I haven't ever thought of using chicken before, I don't know. Will have to give your recipe a go!
