Ingredients
- Ground beef– This will be added to your lasagna for meat.
- Onion powder– This will be added for additional taste.
- Oregano– You will need to use dried oregano for this recipe.
- Salt- This will bring out the flavors in your recipe.
- Diced Tomatoes- You will need to have your tomatoes diced.
- Beef- You will need to use beef flavored broth for this recipe.
- Lasagna noodles- You will need about 10 uncooked lasagna noodles, broken into pieces (I used Barilla).
- Cream cheese- You will need to use softened or room temperature.
- Heavy cream– This will be added to the cheese mixture to help with consistency.
- Parmesan cheese– You can grate your own cheese for the best taste.
- Mozzarella cheese- These will need to be divided (one half cubed, one half sliced).
How to Make the Best Skillet Lasagna
Add the ground beef to a large pan and place over medium-high heat. Cook until the meat is no longer pink and begins to break up with a spoon.
Add the seasonings into the pan and mix until the onion powder, oregano, and salt are fully combined.
Add in the diced tomatoes and bring the ingredients to a boil.
Put in the noodles and stir until the noodles are covered in the liquid.
For 15-20 minutes, cook on medium-low heat, and every 5 minutes or so, mix so the noodles don’t stick together.
Once finished cooking and the noodles are done, mix in the mozzarella, parmesan, heavy cream, and cream cheese until everything is fully incorporated.
Add mozzarella slices on top and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes covered on medium-high heat to melt.
For 5-10 minutes just let it rest in the pan before serving. It will set and become more stable.
You can serve with fresh basil and more parmesan.
Enjoy!
