  • 9 lasagna noodles lasagna noodles
  • 3 cups cooked shredded chicken
  • 1 cup buffalo sauce
  • 1 cup ricotta cheese
  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • ½ cup ranch dressing
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • to taste salt and pepper salt and pepper
  • optional fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • In a medium bowl, combine the shredded chicken and buffalo sauce. Mix until the chicken is well-coated.
  • Cook the lasagna noodles according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
  • In another bowl, mix the ricotta cheese with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
  • Spread a thin layer of the buffalo chicken mixture at the bottom of the baking dish.
  • Place 3 lasagna noodles over the chicken mixture.
  • Spread half of the ricotta mixture over the noodles, followed by 1 cup of mozzarella cheese and ½ cup of cheddar cheese.
  • Add another layer of buffalo chicken mixture and 3 more lasagna noodles.
  • Repeat the layers once more: spread the remaining ricotta mixture, then top with the rest of the buffalo chicken mixture, followed by the last of the mozzarella and cheddar cheeses.
  • Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes.
  • Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden.
  • While the lasagna bakes, prepare the ranch drizzle by combining the ranch dressing with a little bit of water to thin it down (if needed) and stirring well.
  • Once cooked, let the lasagna sit for 10 minutes before serving. Drizzle with ranch dressing and garnish with fresh parsley, if desired.
