Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to ensure even baking.
  2. Heat a splash of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add minced garlic and fresh rosemary, sautéing for 2-3 minutes until fragrant.
  3. In a saucepan, melt unsalted butter, whisk in flour for 1-2 minutes, then gradually add whole milk. Whisk until the mixture thickens, about 5-7 minutes. Season with nutmeg and add grated Parmesan.
  4. In a mixing bowl, combine shredded chicken and baby spinach with the béchamel sauce.
  5. In a baking dish, layer a thin layer of béchamel, three lasagna noodles, one-third of the filling, one-quarter of the béchamel, and shredded mozzarella. Repeat the layers until all are used.
  6. Cover with foil and bake for 30 minutes, then uncover and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes until bubbly and golden brown.
  7. Let the lasagna rest for 10 minutes before slicing to allow the layers to set.
