For the Béchamel Sauce:
- 4 tbsp (½ stick) unsalted butter
- ¼ cup (30g) all-purpose flour
- 3 cups (720ml) whole milk, warmed
- 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
- ½ tsp nutmeg (optional but lovely)
- Salt & white pepper to taste
For Assembly:
- 9 lasagna noodles, cooked al dente (or no-boil)
- 2 cups (250g) cooked chicken, shredded or diced
- 1½ cups (6 oz) diced deli ham (or smoked ham)
- 3 cups (12 oz) shredded Swiss cheese, divided
- ½ cup (50g) grated Parmesan cheese
💡 Pro Tips:
- Use freshly shredded Swiss—pre-shredded contains anti-caking agents that don’t melt smoothly.
- Warm the milk—prevents lumps in béchamel.
- Don’t overcook noodles—they’ll finish baking in the oven.
