I am very excited about this recipe! Several years ago, Andrew and I went to North, an Italian restaurant in Tucson and ordered their Not Your Typical Chicken Lasagna. We instantly fell in love with it. The light, brothy consistency is different from the usually thick, saucy, baked, cheesy lasagna recipes.When we returned to North, they had redone their entire menu and removed it! Since then, we have dreamed of this lasagna and Googled it numerous times, hoping to find a semblance of it, with no such luck! A couple of weeks ago, while battling a desperate craving for this lasagna, Andrew remembered the name of the dish and Googled: Not Your Typical Chicken Lasagna, North (something we should have done before, right?!). To our surprise, we found a video of North's Executive, Chef Peter Lindquist, sharing the lasagna recipe! This little video is a gem! We used it as a guide, but we added a couple things that were omitted in the video, like how to cook the chicken. We are so excited about this recipe and hope you enjoy it too.
