Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Cajun Chicken and Sausage Lasagna.
Step 1
Begin by preheating your oven to a cozy 325°F (165°C) and lightly greasing a 9x13 inch baking dish to ensure your lasagna doesn’t stick.
Step 2
In a large pot, bring lightly salted water to a rolling boil and cook the lasagna noodles according to the package instructions until they reach that perfect al dente texture, which should take about 8 minutes.
Step 3
Once cooked, drain the noodles and set them aside, allowing them to cool slightly.
Step 4
Meanwhile, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the andouille sausage and cubed chicken.
Step 5
Sprinkle in the Cajun seasoning and dried sage, cooking until the chicken is thoroughly cooked and no longer pink, which should take around 8 minutes.
Step 6
Use a slotted spoon to transfer the sausage and chicken mixture to a plate and set it aside.
Step 7
In the same skillet, toss in the chopped onion, celery, red bell pepper, and minced garlic, sautéing until they become tender and fragrant.
Step 8
Remove the skillet from the heat and fold in the reserved sausage and chicken mixture along with half of the creamy Alfredo sauce, creating a delicious medley of flavors.
Step 9
In your prepared baking dish, lay down 4 lasagna noodles in a single layer, then generously spread half of the savory sausage and chicken mixture over the noodles.
Step 10
Repeat this layering process, finishing with a final layer of noodles on top.
Step 11
Pour the remaining Alfredo sauce over this last layer, and don’t hold back on sprinkling a generous amount of shredded mozzarella and grated Parmesan cheese on top for that irresistible cheesy finish.
Step 12
Place the dish in your preheated oven and let it bake for 1 hour, filling your kitchen with mouthwatering aromas.
Step 13
Once baked to perfection, allow the lasagna to rest for 15 minutes before serving, letting the flavors meld beautifully.
Step 14
Enjoy this hearty dish that’s sure to impress family and friends alike!.
