1/4 teaspoon salt

4 chicken cutlets 4-5 ounces each
1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs
4 tablespoons flour

1 teaspoon Italian seasonings
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
1/8 teaspoon paprika
1/4 cup liquid egg whites

Lasagna

6 sheets oven ready lasagna noodles
1 cup part skim milk ricotta cheese
1 cup reduced fat, part skim shredded mozzarella cheese
1 tablespoon reduced fat parmesan cheese

Instructions

Preparation

Preheat oven to 400 degrees

Sauce

Drain tomatoes and add them to a blender. Add the seasonings and blend until smooth. Set aside

Chicken Cutlets

Preheat air fryer to 400 degrees and grease with cooking spray
Stir together breadcrumbs, flour and seasonings on a small plate
In a small shallow bowl, pour out the liquid egg white
Dip chicken into the egg white, being sure to coat all sides
Press chicken onto the flour mixture, being sure to coat all of the sides
Air fry for 2 minutes, then spray the chicken with cooking spray. Air fry for 4 more minutes. Flip chicken over and spray again. Cook for another 4-6 minutes, until almost fully cooked. The chicken will finish cooking in the lasagna
(Or bake in the oven at 450 degrees for 15 minutes, flipping halfway)
Cut chicken cutlets up into long, narrow strips

Lasagna

Grease an 8×8 casserole dish with cooking spray
Add a layer of the meat/sauce to bottom. Just a very thin layer, barely enough to cover the bottom, about 1/4 of the total sauce
Add two whole lasagna noodles, slightly overlapping, then split another one in half (longwise) to fill the remaining space, top with another 1/4 of the tomato sauce
Top with half the chicken cutlet strips, then 1/2 cup of ricotta and 1/2 cup shredded cheese, spreading to evenly layer
Repeat this layering process one more time, tomato sauce, noodles, tomato sauce, chicken then cheese. Top with the parmesan cheese
Cover and bake for 30 minutes then uncover and bake for another 5 minutes, for the cheese to get slightly browned (Double check the directions of your specific box/brand of lasagna noodles to ensure an optimal cooking time)
Let rest for 15 minutes before cutting into 6 pieces
