One-Pan Skillet Lasagna
Ingredients
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 small onion, diced
- 1 lb ground beef
- salt and pepper to taste
- 8 oz lasagna noodles (about 1/2 a package), broken into 1" pieces
- 1 jar pasta sauce, 24 oz
- 1/2 cup water
- 1/2 cup ricotta cheese
- 8 oz mozzarella cheese
Directions
- In a skillet over medium heat, add the oil and onions and cook until slightly soft, about 3 minutes.
- Add the ground beef and salt and pepper and cook until all the way browned. Spoon out any excess grease if necessary.
- Add the lasagna noodles in an even layer on top of the ground beef mixture.
- Pour the pasta sauce and the water over the pasta and give the pan a shake to make sure the liquid gets down around the noodles and the ground beef.
- Reduce the heat to medium low, cover and let cook until the noodles are tender, about 20 minutes.
- Uncover and add the ricotta cheese in dollops around the pan. Spread it evenly over the top.
- Add the mozzarella cheese on top and cover until the cheese is melted, about 5 minutes.
