Nutritionist Olha Voytenko has proposed an unusual version of the world-famous lasagna. This recipe will especially appeal to those who are looking for simpler and faster alternatives to their favorite dishes without the hassle of making traditional dough.
Secrets of Preparing the Meat Filling
First, prepare the meat filling. Place the ground chicken in a dry skillet, cover with a lid, and simmer in its own juices. Meanwhile, finely chop the onion and grate the carrot. Once the meat has simmered slightly, add the vegetables, season with salt, pepper, or your favorite spices. Stir, cover, and cook for about 10 minutes until the meat and vegetables are ready. Then add tomato paste to the meat and mix well.
Assembling the Dish and Light Sauce
For the sauce, pour milk into a small saucepan, add an egg, salt, and spices, then mix thoroughly with a whisk. Place the saucepan on the heat and gradually add 15 g of flour while constantly stirring until slightly thickened. Thin lavash is used as the base: layers are formed sequentially with sauce and ground chicken. The top layer is greased with sauce and sprinkled with 80 g of cheese.
Contradictory Data
In culinary communities and on various resources, there are different approaches to making lazy lasagna. For example, some authors recommend cooking similar dishes in a skillet with a lid, whereas the classic version from this recipe is baked in the oven at 200 degrees Celsius for about 10-15 minutes to form a delicious crust.
Benefits and Protein Content
This lavash lasagna is rich in protein and ideal for a balanced diet. According to the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) recommendations for healthy adults, the guideline is 0.83 g of protein per 1 kg of body weight per day. One portion of this dish contains about 580 kcal and 62.8 g of protein thanks to a generous portion of chicken fillet, milk, and cheese.
