Description

This hearty lasagna features layers of tender pasta, rich ground beef sauce, and creamy ricotta and mozzarella cheeses. The meat sauce is seasoned with Italian herbs, oregano, and paprika for deep, savory flavor. Baked until bubbly and golden, it is a comforting and satisfying main dish perfect for family dinners or gatherings.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Cook lasagna noodles in a large pot of boiling salted water according to package directions until al dente. Drain and rinse with cold water to prevent sticking.
  3. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  4. Add ground beef and cook, breaking it apart with a spoon, until browned and no longer pink. Drain excess fat if necessary.
  5. Add chopped onion and garlic to the skillet. Cook for 3-4 minutes until onion is translucent and fragrant.
  6. Stir in tomato puree, Italian seasoning, oregano, thyme, paprika, and salt. Simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens slightly.
  7. Spread a thin layer of meat sauce in the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking dish.
  8. Layer 4 noodles over the sauce, overlapping slightly if needed.
  9. Spread half of the ricotta cheese over the noodles, followed by half of the mozzarella and half of the remaining meat sauce.
  10. Repeat the layers: 4 noodles, remaining ricotta, remaining meat sauce, and remaining mozzarella.
  11. Top with the remaining 4 noodles and spread the last of the meat sauce over the top. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.
  12. Cover tightly with foil and bake for 45 minutes.
  13. Remove foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.
  14. Let stand for 15 minutes before slicing to allow layers to set.
