Ingredients
Method
- Preheat oven to 375℉ and coat a 9×13 pan with olive oil.
- Boil pasta 1–2 minutes short of package directions until al dente.
- Brown ground beef in a large sauté pan until cooked, drain excess.
- Stir marinara into beef mixture and simmer gently.
- Mix basil, garlic, oregano with ricotta in a bowl.
- Toss pasta with sauce, layer half in pan.
- Spread ricotta mixture over pasta, top with remaining pasta.
- Scatter mozzarella on top and cover with foil.
- Bake 20–25 minutes, uncover, bake 10 minutes more until golden.
- Rest 10 minutes, garnish with parsley, and serve warm.
Notes
Cook pasta just shy of al dente to prevent mushiness. Let lasagna rest before slicing for perfect layers.
