Instructions
1
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
2
In a large pot, bring lightly salted water to a rolling boil.
3
Add the lasagna noodles and tightly cover the pot with a lid. Turn off the heat and leave the noodles to soak for 10-15 minutes, ensuring they cook to perfection.
4
While the noodles are soaking, melt the butter in a large saucepan over low to medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, sautéing until tender and fragrant, about 3-5 minutes.
5
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cream of chicken soup, sautéed onion and garlic, sour cream, garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, basil, black pepper, poultry seasoning, the reserved 1/4 cup of Parmesan cheese, and the cubed cooked chicken. Mix until well combined.
6
In a greased 9x13 inch casserole dish, begin layering: start with 3 lasagna noodles, then spread half of the chicken mixture over them, followed by a sprinkling of 1/4 cup mozzarella and 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese.
7
Repeat this layering process once more: add another 3 noodles, the remaining chicken mixture, and more cheese.
8
Finally, top with the remaining 3 noodles, and cover with the remaining mozzarella and 1/4 cup of Parmesan cheese.
9
Cover the dish tightly with aluminum foil, ensuring that the foil does not touch the cheese. Bake for 25 minutes.
10
Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and bubbly.
11
Allow the lasagna to rest for 10 minutes before slicing; for best results, let it cool overnight to set.
12
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
