- 6 Very Ripe Plantains (50% blackened)
- 1 lb Sweet Italian Sausage (can use just ground pork)
- 2 medium Yellow onions, chopped
- 8oz Cream Cheese
- ½ cup Parmesan, shredded
- 1 tablespoon Garlic Powder
- 1 tablespoon Oregano
- 1 tablespoon Basil
- 4 tablespoons Butter
- 1 cup Milk
- 1 pack Chicken Boullion
- 2 teaspoons Soy Sauce
- 2 teaspoons Worcestershire Sauce
- ¾ cup Chopped Scallions (green and white parts)
- Olive oil
- 4 tablespoons Flour
- 1 lb Fresh Mozzarella, sliced medium thick (need about 18 slices)
- Cook onions on medium in 2 tbsp of butter until just beginning to carmelize.
- Add Sausage (or pork) crumbled and break it up as it cooks. Cook until sausage is slightly browned then remove from heat.
- Soften the cream cheese the microwave (or however you want).
- In a bowl, mix cream cheese, parmesan, garlic powder, Oregano, Basil, chicken bouillon, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce. Combine until smooth, might need to warm it in the microwave to get everything smooth.
- In the pan with the sausage and onion, bring it back to medium heat. Add the remaining butter. Once it melts, sprinkle in the flour and keep stirring.
- Once the sausage mixture stiffens, slowly add the cream cheese sauce until it is all added. It will thicken quickly, remove from heat.
- Use some olive oil to grease the bottom and sides of a 9×13 cake pan or casserole dish.
- Peel and slice the plantains into long slices (which is a little tricky, do your best!)
- Lay down a single layer of slices in the oiled cake pan.
- Spoon about 1/2 of the sausage and sauce mixture over this.
- Lay 9 slices of mozzarella evenly over the mixture.
- Add another layer of plantain, then meat sauce, then cheese.
- Bake this in a 375F (190C) degree oven for 45 minutes (uncovered).
- Remove from oven and there should be a bubbling layer of oil on top. Scatter the green onions over this hot oil evenly. You will smell a super oniony smell.
Allow the Lasagna to cool for about 30 minutes before serving. It’s better the next when the flavors have fully mingled.
