Instructions:
Preheat oven to 375. Bring a pot of water to a rolling boil. Add 1 tablespoon of salt and 1 tablespoon of
olive oil to water. Cook lasagna sheets per instructions on box. Stir occasionally to keep pasta from stick-
ing. Take the sliced mushrooms and chop them into smaller pieces. In another pan, cook ground chicken
on medium heat and break up as much as possible. Add 1 tablespoon of garlic powder and 2 tablespoons
of adobo all purpose seasoning to chicken. Once chicken is almost cooked, add onion, mushrooms, green
and yellow zucchini and diced tomato. Saute and blend mixture until chicken is fully cooked. Set aside.
Once pasta is done, run noodles under cold water to prevent them from sticking. Take filling mixture and
set aside to begin assembly. Start with a small layer of tomato sauce on the bottom of a large baking dish.
Then layer noodles on top of the sauce. Next add the chicken and vegetable mixture, then scatter ricotta
cheese, baby spinach and top with mozzarella. Then repeat 2 or more times depending on how deep your
pan is. The top layer is just tomato sauce and mozzarella. Then sprinkle top with oregano and parsley.
Cover lasagna with aluminum foil and bake for 45 minutes. Uncover lasagna and allow to cook another 10
minutes or until top is bubbly. Take lasagna out and let it set for 20-30 minutes before serving.
