How to Make Roasted Chicken Lasagna

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
Remove cooked chicken meat from bones and skin, discarding the skin and bones. Cut the chicken into bite-sized pieces (approximately 2 cups).
Coat a 13x9x2 inch baking dish with cooking spray.
In a medium bowl, prepare the sauce: Combine 24 ounces (2 1/2 cups) of your favorite spaghetti sauce, 1 (28-ounce) can of undrained crushed tomatoes, and 1 teaspoon of chili powder. Mix well.
Spread 1/2 cup of the sauce in the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
Layer 3 uncooked lasagna noodles over the sauce.
Top with the 2 cups of chopped chicken.
Layer 3 more uncooked lasagna noodles over the chicken.
Spread 2 cups of the sauce over the noodles.
In a separate bowl, combine 15 ounces (about 2 cups) of ricotta cheese, 2 cloves of minced garlic, and 1 large egg. Mix until well combined.
Dollop the ricotta mixture evenly over the sauce layer.
Top with the remaining 3 lasagna noodles.
Pour the remaining sauce over the top layer of noodles.
Sprinkle generously with 2 cups of shredded mozzarella cheese.
Bake, uncovered, for 45 minutes, or until the lasagna is hot and bubbly and the cheese is melted and golden brown.
Let stand for 10-15 minutes before serving to allow the lasagna to set slightly.
