Ingredients

  • 1 (2 1/2–3 lb) broiler-fryer chicken
  • 6 cups water
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 2 Tbsp butter or margarine
  • 1 (10 3/4 oz) can cream of celery soup, undiluted
  • 1/2 tsp dried oregano
  • 1/4 tsp pepper
  • 8 lasagna noodles, uncooked
  • 1 (8 oz) loaf American cheese, cut into 1/4 in slices
  • 2 cups (8 oz) shredded mozzarella cheese, divided
  • 2 Tbsp grated Parmesan cheese

Steps

  1. Cook chicken and remove from bone; cut up. Cook garlic in butter.
  2. Add soup, 3/4 cup reserved chicken broth, oregano, and pepper.
  3. Cook noodles.
  4. Spoon a small amount of sauce into a lightly greased 11x7 pan. Layer: noodles, sauce, chicken, and cheese. Repeat.
  5. Bake at 350°F, 25 min. Top with remaining American, mozzarella, and Parmesan cheese.
  6. Bake 5 min more. Let stand 10 min.

Notes

  • The layering step has a small ambiguity around exact noodle amounts per layer — worth a glance at the physical card to confirm the precise layering.
