Preparation

1. Prepare the chicken

   Cook the chicken breast (boiled or steamed) and then shred it into thin strands.

2. Make the sauté base

   In a large skillet or pot, heat some oil. Sauté the onion and garlic until they become soft and fragrant.

3. Add the tomato

   Add the tomato sauce or crushed tomatoes. Season with salt, pepper, and your preferred spices. Cook for a few minutes so the flavors blend.

4. Add the chicken

   Mix the shredded chicken into the tomato sauce. Stir well so the chicken absorbs the flavor.

5. Assemble the no-oven lasagna

   In a large pot with a lid or a deep skillet:

   1. Add a layer of chicken and tomato sauce

   2. Add lasagna sheets

   3. Add a layer of white sauce or béchamel

   4. Repeat the layers (chicken, pasta, sauce)

   Finish with a generous layer of shredded cheese.

6. Cook without an oven

   Cover the pot and cook over low to medium heat.If you have a heat diffuser, it helps cook more evenly.

   Let it cook for 15–20 minutes, or until the pasta is tender and the cheese is melted.

7. Serve

   Let the lasagna rest for a few minutes before cutting so the layers settle. Serve warm.

Tips

• Use fresh and local ingredients whenever possible: locally raised chicken, seasonal tomatoes, and high-quality cheese make a big difference.

• If you cannot find no-boil lasagna sheets, soak regular pasta sheets in hot water for a few minutes before assembling so they cook properly without an oven.

• Add vegetables like eggplant, zucchini, or spinach between layers to bring extra texture, color, and nutrients.
