For the Lasagna:

2 cups Chicken breast (cooked and shredded) (480 ml)

9 sheets Lasagna noodles (cooked)

1 cup Ricotta cheese (240 ml)

2 cups Mozzarella cheese (shredded) (480 ml)

½ cup Parmesan cheese (grated) (120 ml)

1 cup Fresh spinach (240 ml)

1 tsp Garlic powder

1 tsp Italian seasoning

Salt and pepper

For the Alfredo Sauce:

¼ cup Butter

1 cup Heavy cream

1 cup Parmesan cheese (grated)

2 Cloves Garlic (minced)

A Pinch Nutmeg (optional)

Make the Alfredo Sauce:

In a medium saucepan, melt 1/4 cup (60 ml) of butter over medium heat. Add 2 cloves of minced garlic and sauté until fragrant (about 1 minute).

Pour in 1 cup (240 ml) of heavy cream, stirring constantly. Let it simmer for 2-3 minutes.

Gradually add 1 cup (240 ml) of grated Parmesan cheese, stirring until the cheese is melted and the sauce is smooth. Season with a pinch of nutmeg if desired. Remove from heat.

Prepare the Lasagna Layers:

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

In a mixing bowl, combine 1 cup (240 ml) of ricotta cheese, 1/2 cup (120 ml) of grated Parmesan cheese, 1 tsp (5 ml) of garlic powder, 1 tsp (5 ml) of Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper to taste.

In a 9x13 inch (23x33 cm) baking dish, spread a thin layer of Alfredo sauce at the bottom. Place 3 cooked lasagna noodles on top.

Layer the Ingredients:

Spread 1/3 of the ricotta mixture over the noodles, followed by 1/3 of the shredded chicken, 1/3 of the fresh spinach, 1/3 of the mozzarella cheese, and 1/3 of the remaining Alfredo sauce.

Repeat the layers two more times, ending with a final layer of Alfredo sauce and mozzarella cheese on top.

Bake the Lasagna:

Cover the baking 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 brown.

Let the lasagna cool for a few minutes before serving.
