Turkey Lasagna
Ingredients:
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 1 red onion, chopped
- 2 pounds ground turkey
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/4 cup tomato paste
- One 28-ounce can crushed tomatoes
- One 28-ounce can whole peeled tomatoes
- 1 tablespoon dried oregano
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 1 pound mozzarella, grated (about 4 cups)
- 3/4 cup grated Parmesan
- One 32-ounce container ricotta
- 1/2 bunch parsley, finely chopped
- 1 large egg, lightly beaten
- 12 lasagna noodles (not no-boil; about 12 ounces)
- Heat olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add chopped onion and cook until softened, about 8 minutes. Add ground turkey and minced garlic, cook until turkey is browned, breaking up the meat with a wooden spoon, about 6 to 8 minutes. Stir in tomato paste and cook for another 5 minutes.
- Add crushed tomatoes and whole peeled tomatoes (crushing them with your hand), and stir in oregano. Season with salt and pepper, then simmer uncovered for about 30 minutes until slightly thickened, removing the lid for the last 5 minutes.
- In a large bowl, combine ricotta, parsley, egg, remaining mozzarella and Parmesan, salt, and pepper.
- Preheat oven to 375°F. Spread 2 cups of sauce in a 9x13-inch baking dish. Arrange lasagna noodles on top, followed by sauce and dollops of cheese mixture. Repeat layering twice, ending with noodles. Spread remaining sauce over the top.
- Cover tightly with foil and bake for 1 hour until noodles are tender. Uncover, sprinkle reserved mozzarella and Parmesan, and broil until golden and bubbly, about 5 to 7 minutes. Let it rest for 30 minutes before serving.
