Lasagna for the hot girls! Completed fully in one skillet, and a lil’ lighter than the traditional layered version, but with the same deliciousness.
Ingredients:
1 lb. ground chicken or turkey Italian sausage
2 cups cooked brown rice
16 oz. whole milk ricotta
1.5 cups shredded mozzarella
1 small onion, diced
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 – 15oz can either San Marzano or fire roasted tomatoes
1 jar of homemade or your favorite store bought tomato sauce
1 tsp. oregano, S&P, and fresh basil
Instructions :
1. Get a little olive oil going in a cast iron skillet over medium heat and sauté the onions until translucent . Add in the garlic gloves for another minute or so, and then add in the chicken sausage. Brown it up until it is cooked through.
2. Add in the small can of tomatoes and jar of tomato sauce. Add in the oregano, salt and pepper, and fresh basil. Lower the heat and let it simmer for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
3. Turn off the heat, then add in your cooked brown rice, and stir to combine. Dollop the ricotta cheese on top, and then cover that with the mozzarella. Put the entire skillet in the oven on a high broil to brown the cheese. Top it with more fresh basil and it’s done!
