  • Step 2: In the bottom of a greased lasagna dish, spread a small amount of the chili-chicken mixture.

  • Step 3: Top with layer of lasagna noodles. Spread with another layer of the chicken mixture. Spoon or pour Crema Mexicana over the entire layer, paying close attention not to skimp around the edges. Top with a layer of shredded Mozzarella and Queso Quesadilla Jalapeno.
