Step 1

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Cook the lasagna noodles according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside.

Layer 4 lasagna noodles on top of the mixture.

Step 7

Spread a portion of the sautéed vegetables evenly over the noodles, followed by a layer of the chicken-Caesar mixture. Sprinkle with mozzarella and Parmesan cheese.

Step 8

Repeat the layers (noodles, vegetables, chicken mixture, and cheeses) two more times, ending with a generous sprinkle of cheeses on the top.

Step 9

Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.

Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.
