Ready in: 1-2 hrs
- 12 lasagne noodles, uncooked
- 1 pound boneless chicken breasts, diced
- 3 cups sliced fresh mushrooms
- 1 cup thinly sliced carrots
- 1/2 cup sliced spring onions
- 1 cup frozen green peas, thawed and drained
- 1 teaspoon ground thyme
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 3 1/2 cups skim milk
- 1/2 cup dry sherry
- 1/4 teaspoon ground red cayenne pepper
- 1 container (15 ounce size) low-fat ricotta cheese
- 1 1/2 cup grated part-skim mozzarella cheese, divided
- 1/2 cup grated reduced-fat Swiss cheese
Prepare pasta according to package directions. Spray a Dutch oven or large skillet with cooking spray. Place over medium-high heat until hot. Add chicken and saute 4 minutes or until cooked through. Drain well and set aside. Re-coat Dutch oven with cooking spray and place over medium-high heat until hot. Add mushrooms, carrots and onions. Saute for 6 minutes. Set aside. Place flour in a medium saucepan. Gradually add milk, stirring with a wire whisk until blended, then stir in sherry. Bring to a boil over medium heat and cook for 5 minutes or until thickened, stirring constantly. Stir in salt and red pepper. Reserve one cup of sauce and set aside. In a bowl, combine ricotta cheese, 1 cup mozzarella cheese and Swiss cheese. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spread 1 cup of the sauce over the bottom of a 13- x 9- x 2-inch pan. Arrange 4 pieces of the lasagne (3 lengthwise, 1 width-wise) over the sauce. Top with half of ricotta cheese mixture, half of chicken mixture and half of remaining sauce mixture. Repeat layers, ending with 4 pieces of lasagne. Spread reserved 1 cup of sauce over the last complete layer of lasagne, being sure to cover the lasagne completely. Cover lasagne with foil and bake for 1 hour. Uncover lasagne, sprinkle remaining 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese on top and bake an additional 5 minutes uncovered. Re-cover and let stand 15 minutes before serving.
