LASAGNA PAN DEEP RECIPES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375°F. Spray 15x10x1-inch pan with cooking spray. In small bowl, mix ricotta cheese, 3/4 cup Parmesan cheese and 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning. Set aside.
• Spread 1 1/2 cups of the pasta sauce in pan; top with 4 lasagna sheets. Drop by spoonfuls half of the ricotta cheese mixture over lasagna sheets and sauce (about 1 cup). Sprinkle 1 cup of the mozzarella cheese on top. Evenly spoon 1 1/2 cups of the pasta sauce on top of mozzarella cheese. Layer with remaining 4 lasagna sheets, ricotta mixture and mozzarella cheese. Spoon remaining 1 cup pasta sauce over top. Spray foil with cooking spray; place sprayed side down over pan.
• Bake 25 minutes. Remove from oven; uncover, and discard foil. Separate dough into 8 triangles. Arrange triangles over lasagna, alternating triangles to fit in pan but allowing a little space between triangles. In small bowl, mix melted butter and garlic powder. Brush over tops of crescents. Sprinkle 1/4 teaspoon Italian seasoning and 1 tablespoon Parmesan cheese over tops. Bake 16 to 20 minutes or until crescents are deep golden brown. Let stand 10 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• For the sauce, heat 1/2 cup oil in a large heavy Dutch oven or kettle over low heat. Add the onions, minced garlic and pancetta, and cook, stirring, for 10 minutes, until the onions are wilted. Season liberally with salt and pepper. Raise heat slightly, add the wine and cook until it is mostly reduced, about 20 minutes. Crush the tomatoes into the pan, and add their juice. Add the tomato paste and 2 cups lukewarm water. Simmer for 1 hour.
• Combine the sirloin, cheese and eggs in a large bowl. Chop the parsley with the whole garlic until fine, then stir into the beef mixture. Season lavishly with salt and pepper. Using your hands, mix until all the ingredients are well blended. Shape into meatballs and set aside.
• Heat the remaining oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Dust the meatballs lightly with flour, shaking off excess, and lay into the hot oil. Brown the meatballs on all sides (do not cook through) and transfer to the sauce.
• In a clean skillet, brown the sausages over medium-high heat. Transfer to the sauce. Simmer 1 1/2 hours.
• Heat the oven to 350 degrees. In a large bowl, combine the ricotta, eggs, pecorino Romano, parsley and all but 1 cup of the mozzarella. Season well with salt and pepper. Mix thoroughly.
• Remove the meatballs and sausage from the sauce, and set aside to cool slightly, then chop coarsely. Spoon a thick layer of sauce into the bottom of a 9-by-12-inch lasagna pan. Cover with a layer of noodles. Spoon more sauce on top, then add a third of the meat and a third of the cheese mixture. Repeat for 2 more layers, using all the meat and cheese. Top with a layer of noodles, and cover with the remaining sauce. Sprinkle reserved mozzarella evenly over the top. Bake 30 minutes. Let stand 10 minutes before serving.
