Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.

While the noodles cook, in a large skillet over medium heat, warm the olive oil.

Cook the onion, the red bell pepper, and the yellow bell pepper in the oil until softened, about 5 minutes.

In a skillet over medium heat, melt the butter.

Whisk the milk into the Cajun mixture and simmer until it is thick and creamy, about 3 minutes.

Step 11

Turn off the heat and stir the parmesan and the parsley into the milk mixture.

Step 12

In a small bowl, stir the ricotta, the egg, the salt, and the pepper together.

Step 13

In a 9x13-inch baking dish, spread a thin layer of the sauce, then layer with 1/3 of the cooked lasagna noodles, then 1/3 of the ricotta mixture, then 1/3 of the chicken and veggie mixture, then top with 1/3 of the sauce and 1/3 of the mozzarella cheese.

Step 14

Repeat the layers until all the ingredients are used, ending with the mozzarella.
