9 pieces lasagna noodles These are the backbone of your dish, providing structure and heartiness.
2 cups cooked chicken, shredded Use rotisserie chicken for an easier option.
2 cups spinach, chopped Adds color and nutrients.
1 cup ricotta cheese Creamy and rich, gives the lasagna lovely texture.
1 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded Use whole milk mozzarella for extra creaminess.
1 cup parmesan cheese, grated Adds a nice salty flavor.
2 cups white sauce (béchamel sauce) Make your own if possible for best results.
1 piece onion, chopped Adds a sweet base flavor.
2 cloves garlic, minced Essential for flavor.
Salt and pepper to taste These elevate your dish.
Olive oil for cooking Adds flavor and richness.

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Boil a large pot of water and cook the lasagna noodles according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
In a skillet over medium heat, pour a dash of olive oil and sauté the chopped onion and minced garlic until fragrant and translucent, about 3-5 minutes.
Stir in the chopped spinach and shredded chicken. Season with salt and pepper to your liking and cook for another 3-4 minutes.

Spread a thin layer of white sauce at the bottom of a baking dish.
Place 3 lasagna noodles on top of the sauce.
Spread half of the chicken and spinach mixture over the noodles.
Dollop half of the ricotta cheese over the mixture and sprinkle with half of the mozzarella and parmesan cheeses.
Repeat the layers: noodles, remaining chicken mixture, and the rest of the cheeses.
Top with the last of the noodles and a generous spread of the white sauce. Sprinkle any leftover cheese on top.

Cover your dish with aluminum foil and bake for 25 minutes.
Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.
Let the lasagna cool for about 10 minutes before slicing.

Use fresh ingredients for best flavor. Let the lasagna cool before slicing to keep layers intact.
