Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350ðF (175ðC).
  2. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
  3. Add sliced green peppers and cook until tender, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from skillet and set aside.
  4. In the same skillet, sprinkle chicken breast tenders with garlic salt.
  5. Cook chicken pieces until no longer pink inside, about 5-6 minutes. Cut into bite-sized pieces if needed.
  6. In a 13x9-inch baking dish, spread 1/2 cup of spaghetti sauce on the bottom.
  7. Place 3 pieces of uncooked lasagne noodles crosswise over the sauce, ensuring they do not overlap or touch the sides.
  8. Spread 2/3 cup of spaghetti sauce over the noodles, covering them completely.
  9. Layer one-third of the cooked peppers, chicken, and sliced mushrooms over the sauce.
  10. Sprinkle 1 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese over the toppings.
  11. Repeat the layering process two more times: noodles, sauce, remaining vegetables/chicken, and cheese.
  12. Top with the final 3 noodles and spread the remaining spaghetti sauce over the top layer.
  13. Cover the dish tightly with aluminum foil.
  14. Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.
  15. Remove the foil and sprinkle the remaining mozzarella cheese on top.
  16. Bake uncovered for an additional 15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the edges are bubbly.
  17. Let the lasagne stand for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
