Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 9 lasagna noodles
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 pound shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter
  • 6 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
  • 1/2 cup white wine (optional)
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
  • 2 cups mozzarella cheese, shredded
  • 1/2 cup ricotta cheese
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Cook the lasagna noodles according to package instructions, then drain and set aside.
  • Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the shrimp and cook until pink and cooked through, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
  • In the same skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.
  • Stir in the red pepper flakes, white wine (if using), heavy cream, and chicken broth. Bring to a simmer and cook for 3-5 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.
  • Remove from heat and stir in Parmesan cheese until melted and smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • In a 9×13-inch baking dish, spread a thin layer of the garlic butter sauce on the bottom. Layer 3 lasagna noodles over the sauce, then top with a third of the shrimp, ricotta cheese, mozzarella cheese, and garlic butter sauce. Repeat the layers twice.
  • Cover with foil and bake for 25 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes until the cheese is bubbly and golden.
  • Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.

Notes

  • For a richer flavor, you can use more butter or add a dash of lemon juice to the sauce.
  • You can substitute shrimp with other seafood like scallops or lobster if preferred.
  • This dish is best served hot and fresh but can be refrigerated for up to 2 days.
