Zubereitung von Olive Garden Lasagna Classico
- Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large pot over high heat.
- Add 1.5 lbs ground beef and season generously with black pepper.
- Cook, breaking up the beef with a spoon, until browned, about 5-6 minutes.
- Remove beef from pot and set aside. Add 1 large onion (chopped), 1 green bell pepper (chopped), 1/2 cup of minced garlic, and 1 teaspoon dried oregano to the pot.
- Reduce heat to medium and cook vegetables until softened, about 5-7 minutes.
- Stir in 2 (24-ounce) jars of your favorite marinara sauce and 1/2 cup tomato paste.
- Season with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper. Simmer for 1 hour, stirring occasionally.
- While the sauce simmers, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add 9-12 lasagna noodles and cook according to package directions until al dente. Drain immediately.
- Lightly coat a baking sheet with olive oil. Place the cooked lasagna noodles on the sheet to prevent sticking.
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
- In a medium bowl, combine 15 ounces ricotta cheese, 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese, 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Mix well.
- In a 9x13 inch baking dish, spread a thin layer of meat sauce on the bottom.
- Layer 3-4 lasagna noodles over the sauce. Spread half of the ricotta mixture evenly over the noodles.
- Top with another layer of meat sauce and 3-4 noodles. Repeat layers, ending with remaining ricotta mixture.
- Top with remaining meat sauce, 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese, and extra Parmesan cheese.
- Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil.
- Bake for 45 minutes.
- Remove foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and golden brown.
- Let stand for 10-15 minutes before serving.
- Serve a generous portion of lasagna with extra meat sauce, Parmesan cheese, and a fresh basil leaf.
