Ingredients
- 12 wonton wrappers
- 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
- 1 cup ricotta cheese
- 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- 2 cups marinara sauce
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh basil for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Prepare the Chicken Mixture: In a bowl, combine the shredded chicken, ricotta cheese, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.
- Assemble the Lasagna: In a baking dish, spread a thin layer of marinara sauce on the bottom. Place 3 wonton wrappers over the sauce. Spread half of the chicken mixture over the wrappers, followed by a layer of mozzarella cheese. Repeat the layers, finishing with a layer of marinara sauce and the remaining mozzarella and Parmesan cheese on top.
- Bake: Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake for 25 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden.
