Recipe Intensity: Moderate
Ingredients:
- 9 lasagna noodles, cooked according to package instructions
- 2 cups cooked and shredded chicken breast
- 2 cups Alfredo sauce (homemade or store-bought)
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/2 cup ricotta cheese
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley or basil for garnish (optional)
Instructions:
- Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for about 5 minutes.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well to coat the chicken evenly with the seasonings.
- In another bowl, mix together the ricotta cheese, grated Parmesan cheese, and a pinch of salt and pepper.
- Lightly grease a small baking dish or pan that fits inside your air fryer with cooking spray or oil.
- Spread a thin layer of Alfredo sauce on the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
- Arrange a layer of cooked lasagna noodles over the sauce, slightly overlapping them.
- Spread half of the seasoned shredded chicken evenly over the noodles.
- Spoon half of the ricotta cheese mixture on top of the chicken layer and spread it out.
- Drizzle some Alfredo sauce over the ricotta cheese layer, followed by a sprinkle of shredded mozzarella cheese.
- Repeat the layers: lasagna noodles, remaining chicken, remaining ricotta cheese mixture, Alfredo sauce, and shredded mozzarella cheese.
- Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil, ensuring it’s tightly sealed around the edges.
- Place the covered lasagna in the preheated air fryer basket or tray.
- Air fry the lasagna at 375°F (190°C) for about 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the lasagna is heated through.
- Carefully remove the lasagna from the air fryer using oven mitts.
- Let the lasagna rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
- Garnish with fresh parsley or basil if desired.
- Serve the Chicken Alfredo Lasagna hot as a comforting and flavorful meal.
Note: Cooking times may vary slightly depending on the size and thickness of your lasagna and the efficiency of your air fryer. Adjust the cooking time as needed to ensure the lasagna is cooked through and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
