Salt and pepper to taste

1 cup of chicken broth

Start by cooking and shredding the chicken. You can use leftover rotisserie chicken or cook chicken breasts in a skillet with some olive oil until fully cooked. Shred the chicken and set aside.

Time: 20 minutes

2. Prepare the Sauce

In a large skillet, sauté the diced onion and minced garlic until fragrant. Add the diced tomatoes, black beans, cumin, chili powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Cook for a few minutes until the flavors meld together. Pour in the chicken broth and heavy cream, stirring to combine. Let the sauce simmer for about 10 minutes until it thickens.

Time: 30 minutes

3. Cook the Lasagna Noodles

While the sauce is simmering, cook the lasagna noodles according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside.

Time: 10 minutes

4. Assemble the Lasagna

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). In a baking dish, spread a layer of the sauce on the bottom. Layer lasagna noodles on top, followed by a layer of shredded chicken, mozzarella cheese, and more sauce. Repeat the layers until all ingredients are used, finishing with a layer of cheese on top.

Time: 15 minutes

5. Bake the Lasagna

Cover the baking dish with foil and bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.
