Description

These individual cacio e pepe lasagnas are perfect for a dinner party or an easy weeknight family meal.

Ingredients

1 (16 ounce) package lasagna noodles
1 (16 ounce) container ricotta cheese
3/4 cup grated Pecorino Romano cheese
1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon olive oil, or as needed
freshly ground black pepper to taste
1 tablespoon chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley, or to taste

Directions

1 Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Grease four 8-ounce ramekins. Break 12 lasagna noodles into 2-inch pieces; save any remaining noodles for another use.
2 Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook lasagna noodles in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 8 minutes. Drain.
3 Mix drained noodles, ricotta cheese, 1/2 cup Pecorino cheese, mozzarella cheese, and 2 teaspoons pepper together in a medium bowl.
4 Divide noodle mixture among the prepared ramekins. Top with remaining Pecorino cheese, olive oil, and pepper.
5 Bake in the preheated oven until golden, about 10 minutes. Sprinkle with fresh parsley.
