Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Cheesy Double Cheddar Rotisserie Chicken Lasagna.
Step 1
To start your delicious lasagna, grab a large skillet and melt some butter over medium-high heat.
Step 2
Toss in the chopped carrots and onion, sautéing them for about four minutes until they soften and become fragrant.
Step 3
Just before you finish, add minced garlic and stir it in for a few seconds to release its wonderful aroma—be careful not to let it burn! Next, take a microwave-safe bowl and combine fresh broccoli florets with chicken broth.
Step 4
Pop it in the microwave for about three minutes until the broccoli is tender.
Step 5
Once done, drain the broth, chop the broccoli into bite-sized pieces, and mix it into your sautéed carrot and onion blend.
Step 6
Set this vibrant mixture aside for now.
Step 7
Now, let’s prepare the chicken.
Step 8
Remove the skin from a rotisserie chicken and discard it.
Step 9
Carefully pull the meat from the bones, cutting it into small, bite-sized cubes while making sure to toss any bones aside.
Step 10
In a heavy saucepan over medium heat, melt the remaining butter and whisk in some flour to create a smooth paste.
Step 11
Gradually pour in the milk, stirring continuously until the sauce thickens—this should take about seven minutes.
Step 12
Once thickened, stir in white Cheddar cheese and a sprinkle of garlic salt, mixing until everything is melted and creamy.
Step 13
While your sauce is coming together, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Step 14
Now it’s time to assemble your lasagna! Spread about half a cup of that luscious cheese sauce on the bottom of an 8x8-inch casserole dish.
Step 15
Layer it with lasagna noodles, followed by the colorful broccoli mixture, shredded chicken, and a generous drizzle of cheese sauce.
Step 16
Repeat these layers until you run out of ingredients, making sure to finish with a final layer of sauce on top.
Step 17
For that perfect finishing touch, sprinkle some reserved Cheddar cheese and panko bread crumbs over the top for a delightful crunch.
Step 18
Cover your casserole with foil and bake it in the preheated oven for 35 minutes.
Step 19
After that, remove the foil and let it bake for an additional five minutes until the top is golden and bubbly.
Step 20
Once it’s out of the oven, let your lasagna rest for about seven minutes—this will help it set up nicely.
Step 21
Now, gather your loved ones, serve up generous portions, and enjoy the comforting flavors of your homemade lasagna!.
