Introduction
A fantastic collection of five quick, comforting, and effortless one-pan or one-pot meals. Perfect for busy weeknights when you want to minimize cleanup and cooking time while maximizing flavor.
Step 1
【Lazy Skillet Lasagna】Heat 1 tsp olive oil in a large skillet. Sauté chopped yellow onion until slightly softened, then add 1 1/4 lb ground beef.
Step 2
【Lazy Skillet Lasagna】Season with 1/4 tsp garlic powder, 1 tsp kosher salt, and 1/2 tsp black pepper. Cook until fully browned, draining excess grease with a paper towel.
Step 3
【Lazy Skillet Lasagna】Stir in about a third of the marinara sauce, then break the lasagna noodles into pieces and nestle them into the meat mixture.
Step 4
【Lazy Skillet Lasagna】Pour the remaining marinara sauce over the noodles, then rinse the jar with 1/2 cup of water and pour that in as well, ensuring noodles are submerged.
Step 5
【Lazy Skillet Lasagna】Cover and simmer over medium-low heat for 20-25 minutes until the noodles are tender.
Ingredients List
Important Notes
Draining meat grease with a paper towel directly in the skillet keeps it a truly one-pan meal, eliminating the need for a strainer.
Make sure the lasagna noodles are completely submerged in the sauce-water mixture so they cook evenly without drying out.
Always drop wonton wrappers and biscuit dough pieces into the boiling soup one by one; dropping them in clumps will result in dense, undercooked dough balls.
