 Ingredients

For the Chicken

• 400 g chicken, cut into small pieces
• 1 teaspoon minced garlic
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 1 teaspoon black pepper
• ½ teaspoon oregano
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon tomato paste
• 2 tablespoons ketchup
• 4 tablespoons oil

For the Creamy White Sauce

• 3 tablespoons butter
• 1 tablespoon oil
• 3 garlic cloves, finely chopped
• 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 3 cups milk
• ½ teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon black pepper
• ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes
• ½ teaspoon garlic powder
• ½ teaspoon mixed herbs
• 1 chicken bouillon cube
• 5 tablespoons heavy cream

For Assembly

• Lasagna sheets
• Shredded mozzarella cheese
• Sliced olives
• Chopped bell pepper

 Instructions

1. Cook the Chicken

Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken along with the garlic, salt, paprika, black pepper, oregano, garlic powder, soy sauce, tomato paste, and ketchup.

Cook for about 14–16 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is fully cooked, tender, and nicely coated in the flavorful sauce.

Remove from the heat and set aside.

2. Make the Creamy White Sauce

Using the same pan, add the butter and oil over low heat. Add the chopped garlic and sauté gently for 3–4 minutes, until fragrant.

Add the flour and stir continuously. Cook for about 2 minutes to remove the raw flour taste.

Gradually pour in the milk while whisking constantly to prevent lumps from forming.

Add the salt, black pepper, red pepper flakes, garlic powder, mixed herbs, and chicken bouillon cube. Stir well.

Add the heavy cream and continue cooking over medium-low heat, stirring frequently, until the sauce becomes smooth, creamy, and thick enough to coat the back of a spoon.

3. Assemble the Lasagna

Spread a little of the white sauce in the bottom of your baking dish.

Add a layer of lasagna sheets, followed by some of the cooked chicken, mozzarella cheese, and creamy white sauce.

Repeat the layers until all the ingredients are used.

Finish with a generous layer of mozzarella cheese on top. Add sliced olives and chopped bell pepper for extra flavor and color.

4. Bake or Air Fry

Bake or air fry at 350°F / 180°C for about 15 minutes, or until the lasagna is hot and the cheese is completely melted.

For a beautifully golden, bubbly top, broil for an additional 3–4 minutes, watching closely so the cheese does not burn.

Let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.
