It has been a long, long time since I cooked something, it seems.
White Lasagne
Sauce
1 stick butter
1 onion, superfinely chopped
2 cloves garlic, superfinely chopped
1/2 c. flour
1 1/2 c. milk
2 c. chicken broth
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. black pepper
handful fresh chopped basil
1 tsp. oregano
2 c. shredded mozzarella
1 c. shredded asiago
Sautee the onion & garlic in about a tablespoon of butter. Add the rest of the butter & melt over medium-low heat. Then stir in flour until it bubbles. Add milk & chicken broth; bring to a boil & stir constantly (use a Teflon pot, too, in case it scorches, but it shouldn't as long as you stir constantly), boiling for one minute. Remove from heat. Add seasonings & cheese, stirring until cheese melts.
Filling
1/2 tsp. olive oil
1 lb. chicken tenderloins, cut up very small
3 portabella mushrooms, sliced
1 big bag baby spinach
most of a tall jar of sun-dried tomatoes (drain off the oil)
Sautee the chicken until cooked. Add mushrooms; sautee until soft. Add tomatoes & spinach; stir til spinach wilts.
Assemblage
15 boiled lasagne noodles
2 c. shredded mozzarella
1 c. shredded asiago
1 container ricotta
Layer all the stuff together. Top with cheese & bake at 350 for 40 min. Then broil for 5 min to get the Tasty Burnt Cheese Effect.
This recipe made one big cake pan & one little cake pan of lasagne, so it might be good to half it. It is in the oven now. So there is SUSPENSE. Oooo.
