Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C).
In a casserole dish, spread ⅓ of the jar of marinara on the bottom, top with lasagna noodle overlapping with each noodle.
Spread half of the ricotta mixture on top of the noodles and layer with chicken.
Top the chicken with ½ cup (50 gram) of mozzarella and a ½ cup (50 gram) of parmesan.
Continue layering in the same order and top with remaining cheeses.
Cover with foil and bake for 45-60 minutes uncovering the lasagna for the last 10 minutes of baking.
Serve with a sprinkle of fresh basil.
Enjoy!
