Ingredients
- 2 Tablespoons olive oil
- 1 onion (diced)
- 3 garlic cloves (minced)
- 1 lb. Lean Ground Beef or Italian Sausage
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon pepper
- 28-ounces marinara sauce (plus more for garnish)
- 1/2 to 1 teaspoon red chili flakes
- 1/2 cup water
- 16 ounces ricotta cheese
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup Parmesan Cheese
- 2 Tablespoons fresh parsley
- 10 No-Boil Oven Ready or Fresh Lasagna Sheets
- 8 ounces mozzarella cheese
- fresh basil
Instructions
- Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add olive oil. Add onion and cook for 5-6 minutes. Stir in ground beef or sausage and cook for 7-8 minutes or until cooked through. Add garlic and cook for 1 minute. Drain or dot with paper towels to remove grease.
- Add in marinara sauce and water and stir together. Once it is heated, remove 2/3 of the meat sauce, place in a bowl, and set aside.
- In a bowl, mix together ricotta cheese, eggs, parmesan cheese, and a dash of salt and pepper.
- Reduce heat to medium-low. Layer 3 lasagna sheets in the skillet (you may need to break up lasagna sheets to fit). Spread 1/3 of the ricotta mixture over the lasagna sheets. Top with meat sauce. Sprinkle with mozzarella cheese. Repeat.
- Once you have finished layering all of the ingredients, top with the remaining mozzarella cheese and any extra marinara sauce. If you want it extra saucy, I suggest adding some dollops of marinara sauce.
- Cover and allow the pasta to cook for about 20 minutes. If you are using fresh pasta lasagna sheets, it will only take about 12 minutes. Check to ensure pasta is soft.
- If you want the skillet lasagna to be extra melted and bubbly, carefully place it in the oven under the broiler for 2-3 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Top with fresh basil.

Notes
- What type of pasta should I use in Skillet Lasagna Recipe?
- You need to use no-boil, oven-ready lasagna sheets. This lasagna recipe requires no cooking of the lasagna noodles so you need to use oven-ready lasagna. I prefer to use fresh lasagna sheets when they are available.
- What type of meat should I use in Skillet Lasagna?
- You can use lean ground beef or Italian sausage in this lasagna recipe, depending on preference. You can even do half ground beef and half Italian sausage for extra flavor.
- You can use jarred marinara sauce or make my homemade marinara sauce recipe. If you use jarred marinara sauce, I suggest using Rao's, Carbone, or Victoria (if using Victoria, I suggest adding some salt, fresh basil, and garlic).
