@tryhealthyrecipes: Firecracker Chicken Cottage Cheese Tortilla Lasagna Ingredients Main Ingredients 2 cups cooked shredded chicken 3/4 cup cottage cheese 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella 1/3 cup grated Parmesan 1 teaspoon paprika 1/2 teaspoon black pepper 3–4 medium flour tortillas Optional: pinch of chili flakes for extra heat Optional Add-Ins and Swaps Add a drizzle of hot sauce for more “firecracker” flavor Swap mozzarella for a cheddar blend for sharper taste Use whole wheat tortillas for a heartier version Add a spoon of cream cheese for extra richness Toss in chopped spinach for a veggie boost With your ingredients ready, it is time to bring everything together into those rich, layered textures. Step-by-Step Instructions Preheat your oven to 375°F and lightly grease your baking dish. In a mixing bowl, combine cottage cheese, mozzarella, Parmesan, paprika, and black pepper. Stir until smooth and creamy. Fold in the shredded chicken, making sure every piece is coated in the creamy mixture. Place one tortilla at the bottom of the dish. Spread a layer of the chicken mixture evenly on top. Continue layering tortillas and filling, pressing gently to keep the layers compact. Finish with a final tortilla layer and sprinkle a little extra cheese on top if desired. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, until the top is golden and bubbling. Let the lasagna rest for about 5–10 minutes before slicing. This helps the layers set and makes serving easier. The result is a beautifully layered dish with a creamy center and lightly crisped edges.
