Preparation
1
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.

3
Saute shallot for a few minutes to soften. Add garlic and cook for another minute.
4
Add chicken and season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
5

6
Add thyme, oregano, basil, red pepper flakes and both cans of tomatoes. Stir to combine.
7
Simmer until sauce thickens, about 10-12 minutes. Remove thyme stems.
8
Turn heat off and stir in ricotta cheese. Season with salt and pepper if needed.
9
Cook pasta according to package directions, drain and toss with hot sauce.
10
Garnish with Parmesan cheese, if desired.
About
A nod to lasagna, but so much easier. Use ground meat or veggies instead of chicken if you prefer.
