Ingredients

Scale
  • 9 lasagna noodles (traditional or no-boil)
  • 3 cups boneless, skinless chicken breasts (cooked and sliced)
  • 1 cup sliced deli-style smoked ham
  • 2 cups freshly shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1 cup Swiss cheese (sliced or shredded)
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
  2. Cook the chicken breasts in a skillet over medium heat for about 6-7 minutes per side until fully cooked. Season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder, then slice thinly.
  3. In a mixing bowl, combine heavy cream with dried oregano and additional garlic powder to create a creamy sauce.
  4. Assemble the lasagna: Layer three noodles at the bottom of the baking dish, followed by half of the sliced chicken, ham, mozzarella cheese, and one-third of the creamy sauce. Repeat layers until all ingredients are used.
  5. Finish with a final layer of noodles topped with Swiss cheese and any remaining sauce.
  6. Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 25 minutes. Remove foil and bake an additional 15-20 minutes until bubbly and golden brown.
