Skillet Lasagna
Skillet lasagna is a quick and convenient take on traditional lasagna, prepared in a single skillet for easy cooking and cleanup. The dish begins with browning ground beef or Italian sausage, along with garlic and onions, directly in the skillet. Once the meat is cooked, marinara sauce and broken lasagna noodles are added, allowing the noodles to cook and absorb the flavors directly in the sauce.Ricotta cheese is dolloped into the skillet, and mozzarella cheese is sprinkled on top, creating a creamy and cheesy layer. The skillet is then covered and simmered until the noodles are tender and the cheese is melted and bubbly. This method provides all the delicious flavors of classic lasagna with a fraction of the time and effort, resulting in a hearty and comforting meal.
