Ingredients
- 1 1/2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs, diced
- 1 cup Greek yogurt
- 2 teaspoons garam masala, divided
- 2 teaspoons paprika, divided
- 2 teaspoons cumin, divided
- 2 teaspoons turmeric, divided
- 2 teaspoons kosher salt, divided
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
2 tablespoons Tomato Paste with Sweet Basil 6 oz
2 cups Tomato Sauce Italian Style with Basil, Garlic & Olive Oil 28 oz
- 1 cup coconut milk or cream
- 9 oven-ready lasagna noodles
- 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
Instructions
Step one
In a large bowl, combine diced chicken with Greek yogurt and 1 teaspoon each of garam masala, paprika, cumin, turmeric, and salt. Mix well and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
Step two
Heat a large pan over medium heat. Add chicken and cook for 6–8 minutes until browned and cooked through. Remove and set aside.
Step three
In the same pan, heat olive oil and sauté garlic for 30 seconds. Add the remaining 1 teaspoon of each spice, then stir in the Tuttorosso tomato paste and tomato sauce. Simmer for 10 minutes. Stir in coconut milk and cooked chicken, and cook for another 5 minutes.
Step four
Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish. Layer with chicken mixture, then lasagna noodles, and sprinkle with mozzarella. Repeat until all ingredients are used, finishing with a layer of mozzarella on top.
Step five
Cover with foil and bake at 350°F for 30 minutes. Remove foil and broil for 5 minutes until the cheese is golden brown. Let rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
Step six
Enjoy warm, Creamy Tomato Butter Chicken Lasagna with a fresh side salad or garlic bread.
