Get ready for layers of cheesy, creamy, bacon-loaded goodness! This Crack Chicken Lasagna is the ultimate comfort dish, perfect for family dinners or entertaining guests.
Ingredients:
3 cups cooked chicken, shredded (rotisserie works great)
8 lasagna noodles, cooked and drained
1 cup cooked, crumbled bacon
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
1 cup mozzarella cheese
2 (8 oz) packages cream cheese, softened
1 cup ranch dressing
1/2 cup chicken broth
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp onion powder
1/2 tsp black pepper
1/4 cup chopped green onions (optional garnish)
Directions:
1 Perret oven: Set to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
2 Make the creamy sauce:
In a large bowl, mix softened cream cheese, ranch dressing, chicken broth, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper until smooth.
3 Assemble the lasagna:
Spread a thin layer of the cream sauce on the bottom of the baking dish. Layer 2-3 lasagna noodles over the sauce.
Add a layer of shredded chicken, bacon crumbles, and shredded cheddar cheese. Drizzle more cream sauce over the top.
Repeat layers, ending with noodles, sauce, and a mix of cheddar and mozzarella cheese on top.
4 Bake:
Cover the dish with foil and bake for 25 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
5 Serve:
Let the lasagna cool for 5 minutes before slicing. Garnish with chopped green onions and serve hot.
Pro Tip: For extra crunch, sprinkle crushed Ritz crackers or panko breadcrumbs mixed with butter on top before baking!
