Ingredients

Scale
  • 9 lasagna noodles, cooked and drained

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil (for greasing dish)

  • 2 cups cooked chicken breast, shredded

  • 1 cup buffalo wing sauce (use mild or hot depending on preference)

  • 15 oz ricotta cheese

  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese (divided)

  • 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese

  • 1 tablespoon dried parsley

  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder

  • Salt and black pepper to taste

  • ½ cup ranch dressing

  • 1 tablespoon water (optional, to thin the dressing)


Instructions

Step 1: Preheat and Prep

  • Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).

  • Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with olive oil.

Step 2: Make the Buffalo Chicken

  • In a bowl, mix shredded chicken with buffalo sauce until fully coated. Set aside.

Step 3: Mix the Cheese Filling

  • In a separate bowl, combine:

    • Ricotta cheese

    • 1 cup mozzarella

    • Parmesan

    • Parsley, garlic powder, salt, and pepper

  • Mix until smooth and well blended.

Step 4: Assemble the Lasagna

  1. Spread a thin layer of buffalo chicken at the bottom of the baking dish.

  2. Place 3 cooked lasagna noodles on top.

  3. Spread half of the ricotta mixture over the noodles.

  4. Add another layer of buffalo chicken and top with 3 more noodles.

  5. Spread remaining ricotta mixture and top with the rest of the chicken.

  6. Sprinkle remaining 1 cup of mozzarella evenly over the top.

Step 5: Bake

  • Cover the dish with foil and bake for 25 minutes.

  • Remove foil and bake an additional 10–15 minutes, until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.

Step 6: Add Ranch Drizzle

  • Mix ranch dressing with a little water to thin, if desired.

  • Once the lasagna rests for 5 minutes after baking, drizzle the ranch over the top.
