Ingredients

Scale
  • 12 lasagna noodles (about 12 oz/340g)
  • 3 cups shredded cooked chicken (about 1 lb/450g)
  • 1 cup buffalo sauce (8 fl oz/240ml), divided
  • 2 packages (8 oz/225g each) cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup ranch dressing (8 fl oz/240ml)
  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese (8 oz/225g)
  • 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese (8 oz/225g)
  • 1 cup blue cheese crumbles (4 oz/115g)
  • 1 bunch green onions (about 6-8), thinly sliced
  • 2 stalks celery, finely diced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon dried dill
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • Cooking spray for the baking dish

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Cook lasagna noodles according to package directions but remove them 2 minutes early. Drain and lay flat on an oiled baking sheet to prevent sticking.
  2. In a medium bowl, toss shredded chicken with ¼ cup of buffalo sauce until well coated.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Add ranch dressing and remaining ¾ cup buffalo sauce, mixing until incorporated. Stir in garlic, dried dill, onion powder, and black pepper.
  4. Fold in half of the mozzarella and cheddar cheeses, reserving the rest. Add the diced celery.
  5. Spray a 9×13-inch baking dish with cooking spray. Spread a thin layer of the buffalo-ranch cheese mixture on the bottom.
  6. Arrange 4 lasagna noodles over the sauce, slightly overlapping if necessary. Top with a third of the remaining cheese mixture, half of the buffalo-coated chicken, and a sprinkle of blue cheese and green onions.
  7. Add another layer of 4 lasagna noodles, another third of the cheese mixture, the remaining buffalo chicken, more blue cheese, and green onions.
  8. Place the final 4 noodles on top and cover with the remaining cheese mixture. Sprinkle with the reserved mozzarella and cheddar cheeses.
  9. Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 25 minutes. Remove foil and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes until cheese is bubbly and lightly browned.
  10. Let rest for 10-15 minutes before cutting to allow the layers to set.
