This simple recipe transforms chicken breast into a delicious meal, ideal for a weekend lunch or a family dinner. Let's get started! Ingredients: - 1 package of lasagna sheets - 500 g ground chicken breast - 2 medium onions - 1 large carrot - 5 ripe tomatoes - 1 bell pepper (optional, for extra flavor) - 1 teaspoon dried thyme - Salt and pepper to taste - 3 tablespoons olive oil For the béchamel sauce: - 100 g butter - 3 tablespoons flour - 1 liter milk - 300 g grated cheese - White pepper to taste Step 1: Preparing the vegetables Start by peeling the onion and carrot. Chop them finely using a food processor to save time. In a large pot, add the 3 tablespoons of olive oil and heat over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and carrot and sauté for 5-7 minutes until they become slightly translucent. Step 2: Cooking the chicken Add the ground chicken breast to the pot, stirring constantly to break it into small pieces. Continue cooking for 10-12 minutes until the chicken is well cooked. Add the diced tomatoes, bell pepper (if using), and season with salt, pepper, and thyme. Let the mixture simmer on low heat for 10 minutes until the tomatoes soften. Step 3: Preparing the béchamel sauce In another pot, melt the butter over low heat. Add the flour and quickly whisk, allowing it to brown slightly for 1-2 minutes. Gradually add the milk, whisking constantly to prevent lumps from forming. Cook the sauce until it thickens, then add the grated cheese and white pepper. Stir until the cheese is completely melted and the sauce becomes creamy. Step 4: Assembling the lasagna Preheat the oven to 180°C. In a baking dish, start by adding a thin layer of béchamel sauce to the bottom. Lay down a layer of lasagna sheets, followed by a layer of the chicken and vegetable mixture. Repeat this process, alternating layers, until all ingredients are used. Make sure the last layer is covered with béchamel sauce and sprinkle the remaining cheese on top. Step 5: Baking Cover the dish with aluminum foil and place it in the preheated oven. Bake for 30 minutes, then remove the foil and let the lasagna brown for another 15 minutes. When ready, let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing. Serving suggestion: Serve the lasagna with a fresh green salad, dressed with olive oil and balsamic vinegar. This combination adds a pleasant contrast of textures and flavors. Possible variations: You can replace the chicken breast with beef or even vegetables for a vegetarian option. Add mushrooms or zucchini to diversify the recipe and give it a personal touch. This chicken breast lasagna is not only a quick recipe but also a true feast for the senses. With a little patience and love, you will create a dish that will impress everyone!
