    List of Ingredients




    Chicken Pot Pie Lasagna


    12 pieces uncooked lasagna noodles
    1 lb. boneless, skinless chicken breasts, diced
    3 C. sliced fresh mushrooms
    1 C. thinly sliced carrots
    1/2 C. sliced spring onions
    1 C. frozen green peas, thawed and well drained
    1 tsp. ground thyme
    1/2 tsp. salt
    1/2 C. all-purpose flour
    3 1/2 C. skim milk
    1/2 C. dry sherry
    1/4 tsp. ground red pepper (cayenne)
    1 (15 oz.) pkg. low-fat ricotta cheese
    1 1/2 C. grated part-skim mozzarella cheese, divided
    1/2 C. grated reduced-fat Swiss cheese

    Recipe




    Prepare pasta according to package directions. Spray a Dutch oven or large skillet with cooking spray; place over medium-high heat until hot. Add chicken and sauté 4 minutes or until cooked through. Drain well and set aside.


    Recoat Dutch oven with cooking spray and place over medium-high heat until hot. Add mushrooms, carrots and onions; sauté 6 minutes. Set aside.


    Place flour in a medium saucepan. Gradually add milk, stirring with a wire whisk until blended; stir in sherry. Bring to a boil over medium heat and cook for 5 minutes or until thickened, stirring constantly. Stir in salt and red pepper. Reserve one cup of sauce and set aside.


    In a bowl, combine Ricotta cheese, 1 cup Mozzarella cheese and Swiss cheese.


    Preheat oven to 350ºF. Spread 1 cup of the sauce over the bottom of a 13 x 9 x 2-inch pan. Arrange 4 pieces of the lasagna (3 length-wise, 1 width-wise) over the sauce. Top with half of Ricotta cheese mixture, half of chicken mixture and half of remaining sauce mixture. Repeat layers, ending with 4 pieces of lasagna. Spread reserved 1 cup of sauce over the last complete layer of lasagna, being sure to cover the lasagna completely.


    Cover lasagna with foil and bake 1 hour. Uncover lasagna, sprinkle remaining 1/2 cup Mozzarella cheese on top and bake an additional 5 minutes uncovered. Re-cover and let stand 15 minutes before serving.

    Yields 10 servings.
