    What You Need for Lasagna Stuffed Chicken Breasts

    • Boneless skinless chicken breasts
    • Kosher salt
    • Pepper
    • Ricotta cheese
    • Mozzarella cheese
    • Parmesan cheese

    Get ready for some major comfort food. Lasagna Stuffed Chicken is packed with three cheeses and red sauce for the ultimate low carb meal.

    How to Make Lasagna Chicken

    In just a few simple steps you can have this delicious, cheesy chicken in the oven. You can find the full, step-by-step, printable recipe below, but I wanted to walk you through the process too!


    Start by laying your chicken on a cutting board and cutting a slit through the middle, like your cutting it into two thin pieces. But be sure not to cut all the way through as you want it to be a pocket for the cheesy goodness.

    Season the Chicken

    Season the chicken evenly with salt and pepper and set aside. If you love using Himalayan salt like Jessica, that’s a great choice too!

    Lasagna Filling

    Next, mix together the ricotta, mozzarella, and parmesan cheese. Stir in your favorite Italian seasoning to add some major flavor. (Love cheese and chicken together? This cheesy chicken is a recipe to try next!)

    Stuffing the Chicken

    Open up your chicken and spread each one with a tablespoon of spaghetti sauce. You can use your favorite store-bought jarred variety or make your own.

    Next, divide the ricotta mixture evenly into 4 and spread it on top of the spaghetti sauce. Close the chicken and place in a greased 8×8 baking pan.

    Once all the chicken is prepared and in the pan, spread with the remaining spaghetti sauce and top with more shredded mozzarella and parmesan cheese.

    Bake the Chicken

    Cover the dish with foil and into the oven it goes. The chicken will bake covered for half the time to ensure the cheese doesn’t get too brown.

    How Long to Cook

    The amount of time you will need to cook your Lasagna Stuffed Chicken will depend on the thickness of your chicken. Times are included in the recipe below but you may need a little more or less time.

    Your best bet to get perfectly cooked chicken is a digital meat thermometer. I swear by them anytime I cook meat or poultry. There are some great ones out there that you can set to beep when a certain temperature has been reached.

    To use a thermometer in this recipe, place the probe in the thickest part of your chicken and set it to 165 degrees for perfectly cooked chicken.

    Low Carb Meal

    To keep things really easy for dinner and low carb, serve it with Jessica’s famous side salad or garlic roasted broccoli.

    The Whole Family Will Love It

    With a lineup of chicken and three different cheeses, this meal is sure to be a family pleaser.

    This Lasagna Stuffed Chicken works great as a meal prep option as well if you take your lunch to work each day. It makes enough for Monday through Friday leaving one day to treat yourself. The perfect balance in my opinion.

    You may need to hide it in the back of the fridge to make sure it lasts all week.
