  • Total Time: 45 minutes
  • Yield: 6 1x

Description

A quick and delicious skillet beef lasagna that combines layers of seasoned ground beef, creamy ricotta, marinara sauce, and melted mozzarella cheese, all cooked together in one pan for an easy and comforting meal.


Ingredients

Scale

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 pound ground beef
1 small yellow onion, finely chopped
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon dried basil
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
24 ounces marinara sauce
8 ounces no-boil lasagna noodles, broken into 2-inch pieces
1 cup water
1 cup ricotta cheese
1 large egg
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley


Instructions

Heat olive oil in a large deep skillet over medium heat.
Add the chopped onion and cook for 3-4 minutes until softened.
Add the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the ground beef to the skillet and cook, breaking it apart with a spoon, until browned and cooked through, about 6-8 minutes.
Stir in the dried oregano, dried basil, salt, and black pepper.
Pour in the marinara sauce and stir to combine.
Add the broken lasagna noodles and water to the skillet, stirring to submerge the noodles in the sauce.
Bring the mixture to a simmer, cover the skillet, and cook for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the noodles are tender and have absorbed most of the liquid.
Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine the ricotta cheese, egg, and grated Parmesan cheese.
Remove the skillet from heat and dollop the ricotta mixture evenly over the noodles.
Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the top.
Cover the skillet again and let it sit for 5 minutes off the heat to allow the cheese to melt.
Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
