For the breading: Mix the breadcrumbs with basil, garlic powder, salt, and pepper in a bowl until combined. Bread it! Season the chicken breasts on both sides and then coat them in flour until covered, then dip in beaten Huevo San Juan® pieces and finally, cover with the breadcrumb mixture. Once all the chicken breasts are breaded, brown them in a skillet with hot vegetable oil over medium-low heat to avoid burning the breading. Drain and set aside until use. Preheat the oven to 180 °C. Assemble the lasagna: Place a base of Alfredo pasta sauce in a baking dish, then arrange the precooked lasagna sheets and place the breaded chicken breasts, cover with slices of ham and Manchego cheese, then cover again with the Alfredo pasta sauce and repeat until the dish is full. Finally, top the Chicken Cordon Bleu lasagna with grated mozzarella cheese. Bake at 180 °C for 20 minutes. Cut the Chicken Cordon Bleu lasagna, serve hot, and decorate with fresh basil leaves.
