Lasagna with chicken and mushrooms with bechamel sauce
Being a popular dish of Italian cuisine, lasagna has won love all over the world for its taste and variety of preparation. Lasagna is traditionally called sheets of dough, which alternate with different fillings and all of this is baked with bechamel sauce. Lasagna can be filled with either vegetable stew or traditional minced meat, so this dish is suitable for almost all gourmets. In Italian restaurants you can see more than 2 dozen varieties of lasagna: with mushrooms and vegetables, vegetarian and with spinach, with chicken or minced meat. We recommend preparing lasagna stuffed with chicken and mushrooms.
To prepare lasagna we will need the following ingredients:
- Ready lasagne sheets;
- Boiled chicken fillet 300-400g;
- Raw champignons – 300g;
- Hard cheese – 200g;
- 1 medium onion;
- Greens for decoration;
For the bechamel sauce:
- Butter – 100g;
- Milk – 500ml;
- Flour – 50g;
- Nutmeg - on the tip of a knife, salt, ground black pepper - to taste.
How to cook lasagna:
- We start by preparing the bechamel sauce. To do this, in a saucepan with a thick bottom over low heat, you need to melt the butter, then fry the flour a little, stirring constantly so that no lumps form and so that the flour does not burn.
- Then slowly pour in all the milk without ceasing to stir.
- Add a little salt and pepper, add nutmeg and bring to a boil, remembering to stir. When the sauce reaches the desired consistency, remove it from the heat.
- The first layer in our lasagna will be mushroom - we’ll start with its preparation. Cut the mushrooms into thin slices, the onion into small rings and fry the onion and mushrooms in hot vegetable oil.
- Cut the boiled chicken breast into thin slices and grate the cheese on a coarse grater.
- Preparing lasagne sheets. Stores sell ready-made raw lasagna sheets made from unleavened dough, like pasta, mainly from durum wheat. Boil lasagna sheets in salted water so that they do not stick together, add 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. This is the average approximate cooking time for sheets, which may differ depending on the manufacturer, so it is advisable to look at the instructions on the packaging.
- Line the greased pan with lasagne sheets, place mushrooms on top (half the total amount), and pour bechamel sauce over them.
- Cover the first layer of filling with lasagne sheets. Place half of the chicken meat on them, pour bechamel sauce on them and sprinkle with a little grated cheese.
- Covering the layer of meat with lasagne sheets, spread the rest of the mushroom filling on them, pouring bechamel sauce over them.
- Cover the top again with sheets of dough, place the rest of the meat on them, pour over the sauce, sprinkle with grated cheese. There can be exactly as many such layers as the height of the baking dish allows you.
- We cover the top layer of filling with a sheet of lasagna and sprinkle generously with grated cheese to bake a golden, aromatic crust.
- Bake our lasagna in an oven preheated to 180-200 degrees for 30-35 minutes.
- The finished lasagna is served hot, sprinkled with finely chopped herbs on top. In conclusion, we note that the calorie content of this dish is 450 kcal per 100g.
As they say in Italy, buon appetito!
Lasagna with minced chicken and mushrooms: recipe with photos at home
I offer a version of a delicious Italian dish to which we add mushrooms. These can be either the most accessible champignons now, or frozen or dried forest mushrooms, or maybe you will cook during the season and you will have them fresh. Despite the fact that mushrooms in lasagna are not according to the canons, I don’t think the Italians will be offended by us, because it turns out very tasty. Bechamel goes well with mushrooms, as does pasta. So why not?
What we need:
- minced meat (chicken) – 400g;
- mushrooms (champignons) – 300g;
- onion – 1 head;
- garlic – 1 clove;
- spices for meat;
- salt - to taste;
- milk – 500ml;
- butter – 100g;
- flour - 2 tbsp;
- vegetable oil – 50ml;
- lasagna plates – 9 pcs.;
- cheese – 150g.
How to make lasagne from minced chicken and mushrooms
- Wash the champignons, if they are large, clean them and cut them into small cubes. Chop the onion in the same way. Finely chop the garlic with a knife.
- Pour oil into a frying pan, heat it and add mushrooms with onions and garlic. Fry for 5 minutes until slightly browned and add minced meat to them. I have chicken here, it also goes well with mushrooms and milk sauce. Mix well and cook not for long so as not to dry out. In the process, add salt and spices to taste.
- In a small saucepan with a thick bottom, melt the butter, add flour and stir to obtain a thick paste-like mixture.
- Pour in a little milk to thin this mixture. Then a little more, mix again and pour out all the milk for the third time. Cook over low heat with constant stirring until thickening begins. As soon as it starts to thicken, remove the pan from the stove and, continuing to stir, cook for another 2 minutes using the residual heat of the thick bottom of the pan. At the end we add salt.
- The lasagna sheets need to be blanched a little. To do this, pour water into a deep frying pan, the size of which allows you to place a plate, and bring to a boil. Lower the lasagna one by one for half a minute. I will have three layers of pasta in my dish, based on the size of my baking dish I need 9 sheets of 3 sheets of lasagna in one layer.
- Grease the bottom of the mold with butter. We put three records. Spread half the minced meat with mushrooms. Cover with 1/3 of the white sauce. Lasagna again, all the filling is minced chicken, the second third is bechamel. Third layer of lasagne, bechamel and generously sprinkle with finely grated cheese.
- Bake at 170-180°C for about an hour. The cheese should first melt, combine with the bechamel, and then turn into a beautiful dark golden crust. But the crust should not burn, so if this starts to happen, it is better to cover the dish with foil and open it 10-15 minutes before the end.
