Ingredients
- 12 ounces lasagna noodles
- 3 ½ cups shredded rotisserie chicken
- 1 packet ranch seasoning
- 24 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup buffalo sauce
- ½ cup whole milk
- 2 cups sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
- 2 cups mozzarella cheese, divided
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a large mixing bowl, combine softened cream cheese, ranch seasoning, buffalo sauce, milk, cheddar cheese, and 1 ½ cups of the mozzarella until smooth.
- Cook lasagna noodles in a large pot of salted boiling water until al dente.
- Drain noodles and lay them flat on parchment paper to prevent sticking.
- Spread a thin layer of the cream cheese mixture on the bottom of a 9x13 baking dish.
- Layer noodles, shredded chicken, and the cream cheese mixture until ingredients are used up.
- Top with the remaining ½ cup of mozzarella cheese.
- Cover with foil and bake for 40 minutes, then uncover and bake for an additional 15 minutes until bubbly and golden.
Notes
Ensure cream cheese is fully softened to room temperature for the smoothest sauce consistency. You can use no-boil lasagna noodles if you adjust the liquid content slightly. Let the lasagna rest for 10 minutes after removing from the oven to ensure clean serving slices.
