Chicken Chorizo Lasagna step by step

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F..
  2. In a large skillet on medium heat, cook the chorizo and jalapenos until chorizo is done. Drain. Add chicken..
  3. In a separate bowl, mix ricotta and egg. ( I seasoned this with salt and pepper.).
  4. Take a greased 13 x 9 in baking dish and spread 1 cup enchilada sauce on the bottom. Place your noodles on top. Then 1/3 of your ricotta mixture. And 1/2 of the chicken mixture. Then the shredded cheese. And finally enchilada sauce. (I did not use a whole can here). Repeat layers..
  5. Top with remaining noodles, ricotta mixture, enchilada sauce, and shredded cheese..
  6. Baked covered for 45 - 50 minutes. Then bake uncovered for 10 minutes. Sprinkle with Cilantro and let it stand for 15 minutes before serving. ( I did not do the Cilantro here because I made pico de gallo)..
  7. * The original recipe also added a recipe for avacado cream sauce which includes 2 medium avacados (peeled, pitted and halved), 1/4 cup sour cream, 2 tablespoons lime juice, 1/4 tsp salt all blended together until smooth. ( I did not make this but had sour cream, Guacamole, and pico de gallo. The lasagna needs a touch of freshness to give it a lift.).
