Here's a simple and delicious recipe for making skillet lasagna:
Skillet Lasagna Recipe
*Ingredients:*
- 1 pound ground beef or Italian sausage
- 1 small onion, diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 (24 oz) jar marinara sauce
- 1 (14.5 oz) can diced tomatoes, undrained
- 1/2 cup water
- 1 teaspoon dried basil
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 8 lasagna noodles, broken into pieces
- 1 cup of ricotta cheese
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- Fresh basil or parsley for garnish (optional)
*Instructions:*
1. **Cook the Meat**:
In a large skillet, cook the ground beef or Italian sausage over medium heat until browned. Drain any excess fat.
- Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the skillet. Cook until the onion is softened and the garlic is fragrant, about 3 minutes.
2. **Add Sauces and Seasonings**:
Stir in the marinara sauce, diced tomatoes (with their juice), water, dried basil, dried oregano, salt, and pepper. Bring the mixture to a simmer.
3. **Add Noodles**:
- Break the lasagna noodles into pieces and add them to the skillet. Stir to ensure the noodles are submerged in the sauce.
4. **Simmer**:
- Reduce the heat to low, cover the skillet, and simmer for about 20 minutes, or until the noodles are tender. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
5. **Add Cheeses**:
- Once the noodles are cooked, dollop spoonfuls of ricotta cheese over the lasagna. Sprinkle shredded mozzarella and grated Parmesan cheese evenly over the top.
6. **Melt Cheese**:
- Cover the skillet again and cook for another 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
7. **Garnish and Serve**:
- Remove from heat and let the lasagna rest for a few minutes. Garnish with fresh basil or parsley, if desired. Serve hot.
