Hunters Chicken Lasagna in Jack Daniel’s Honey Barbecue Sauce

Happy Birthday ‘Jack’ Daniel (part 2)

I thought it was about time I tried something else savoury, and being a big fan of both Lasagna and Hunters Chicken, I thought I’d try combining the two, with the added twist of using Jack Daniel’s Honey Barbecue glaze, in honour of Jasper Newton Daniel’s recent September Birthday.

I’ll admit now, the first attempt was a complete failure – this was the second attempt!

I used:
Lasagna pasta sheets (I used five, including one at the bottom)
Smoked Back Bacon rashers
Around 230g of cooked Chicken
Jack Daniel’s Honey Barbecue glaze
Grated Cheddar cheese

I pre-cooked the pasta sheets, and fried the bacon lightly first.

I then layered the ingredients in a baking tin, coating each layer with barbecue sauce.

When ready, I added a generous heaping of grated/sliced cheese on top, then placed in the middle of the oven.

I set the oven to gas mark 4, as the ingredients were already pre-cooked, and monitored every couple of minutes until I was satisfied that the cheese had melted to cover, with just the right colour.

Given that the first attempt hadn’t worked, I was quite relieved to find that this one was great, and my family enjoyed it too – I’m already getting requests to make another.

A (slightly belated) Happy Birthday to Jasper Newton ‘Jack’ Daniel!
