How To Make White Cheese Chicken Lasagna

1. Start by preheating the oven to 350 degrees. In a large pot, let slightly salted water come to a boil. Cook the lasagna noodles in this water for 8-10 minutes. Then, drain and rinse them with cold water.
2. In a large pan, add butter and melt on medium heat. Add the onion and garlic so they can cook in the melted butter until tender (keep stirring). Then, add the flour and salt, and let it simmer until bubbly.
3. Now, add the broth and milk, let it come to a boil for one minute while stirring. Once it is boiling, add 2 cups of mozzarella cheese and ¼ cup of parmesan cheese. Season with basil, oregano, and black pepper. Take it off the heat and keep aside.
4. In a 9x13 inch baking dish, spread 1/3 of the sauce on the bottom. Layer it with 1/3 noodles, ricotta and chicken. On top of that, layer 1/3 noodles, 1/3 sauce, spinach and the remaining mozzarella/parmesan cheese. Place more noodles over the cheeses and spread the remaining sauce, evenly. Sprinkle parsley and ¼-cup parmesan cheese on top.
5. Let it bake for 35-40 minutes in the preheated oven.
