October 18, 2009 at 9:22 pmThis is a lot of work, but it taste wonderful. You will need to use a larger pan 2 1/2″ deep will work a lot better. The Marinara Sauce needs to be thicker, we used corn starch. You should split the chicken, cheese, and asparagus into thirds before you start to lay the layers out. We also but sauce on the bottom before the first layer of noodles. This is a very lite tasting Lasagna. We are going to try freezing the leftovers. This recipe will serve 12 large servings.
Enjoy!!
