spicy chicken lasagna

December 2nd, 2008

You possibly will not think you can lose weight while on a diet which includes spicy chicken lasagna but it is achievable. It is crucial to not eat spicy chicken lasagna or other high calorie poultry every day but in moderation.

For instance, I allow myself moderately high calorie food once per week. I eat a healthy diet 6 days a week, say 1400 to 2000 calories per day, and then on the last day, I eat whatever I like – without going overboard of course.

I have been eating this way for the last few weeks and it has helped me to lose 5 kilos. I have not increased my exercise plan or taken any supplements or diet food. I have simply been careful of what I eat on most days and then eat whatever I like one day a week.

I also believe it helps to have a little support when dieting and for that I joined the Biggest Loser club. They have many tools to enable you to monitor your progress and achieve your goals.

Spicy Chicken Lasagna

2 yellow bell peppers, halved, cored and seeded
1 cup bottled green salsa
9 no-boil lasagna noodles
1 cup sour cream
1 cup milk
1 large egg
2 teaspoons all-purpose flour
2 cups shredded cooked chicken
2 cups fresh cilantro leaves, chopped
1 1/2 cups shredded Monterey jack cheese
1 (15 ounce) can whole corn, drained

Place pepper halves over fire or on broiler pan rack, cut sides down. Broil or char until skins are mostly charred. Remove peppers to a saucepan, cover and let stand 10 minutes.

Pull charred skin from peppers (some will remain), then cut peppers in 1 1/2-inch pieces.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Have a 9 x 13-inch baking dish ready.

Spread 1/4 cup salsa over bottom of baking dish. Top with 3 noodles placed crosswise, leaving 1 inch between each.

Whisk sour cream, milk, egg and flour in a medium bowl until blended (mixture will be thin). Pour 2/3 cup sauce over the noodles to cover. Scatter chicken, then 1/4 cup cilantro over top. Sprinkle with 1/2 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese and dot with 2 tablespoons salsa. Cover with 3 more noodles and another 2/3 cup sauce. Top with yellow peppers, 1/2 cup cheese, the corn and 1/4 cup cilantro. Top with 3 more noodles and the remaining sauce, salsa and cheese. Cover with foil.

Bake 40 to 45 minutes until noodles are tender. Let stand, covered, for 10 minutes. Uncover and sprinkle with remaining cilantro.
