Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Bring a large pot of salted water to boil, and add lasagna noodles.
-
3
Add a little bit of olive oil to keep noodles from sticking together.
-
4
Drain, rinse with cold water, and add a bit of olive oil again.

While the noodles are boiling, rinse and dry the spinach.
-
7
Remove stems from spinach leaves.
-
8
Add the olive oil to a large saucepan, and cook spinach until bright green and tender.
-

Add salt to taste.

The last part you will need to make before putting the lasagna together is the white sauce.
-
12
Start by melting the butter in a large saucepan over medium heat.
-
13
Cook the onion and garlic in the butter until tender.
-
14
Stir in the flour and salt, and simmer until bubbly.
-
15
Mix in the broth and milk, and boil, stirring constantly, for 1 minute.
-
16
Stir in 2 cups mozzarella cheese, 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese, and sun-dried tomatoes.
-
17
Season with basil, oregano, and ground black pepper (keep a bit of the fresh basil to sprinkle on top of the lasagna).
-
18
Add more salt to taste, if desired.
-
19
Remove from heat.
-

Set aside about 1 cup of the sauce (enough for the top of the lasagna), then add the chicken to the rest.

You may layer however you want.

23
I prefer to be especially liberal with the noodles and cheese.
-
24
This is about how I ended up layering: Put a tiny bit of the chicken-less sauce on the bottom to keep from sticking, then start with a layer of noodles.
-
25
Add ricotta, chicken sauce, spinach, cheese, noodles, and repeat until your pan is full.
-
26
Finish with a layer of noodles, topped with the rest of the chicken-less sauce, and a hefty portion of mozzarella and Parmesan cheese.
-
27
Sprinkle with fresh basil and parsley.
-
28
Bake 35-40 minutes in the preheated oven.
