Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a large skillet, melt 4 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add 3 minced garlic cloves and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute. Toss in 1 pound of cleaned shrimp and 1 teaspoon of crushed red pepper flakes, cooking until the shrimp turns pink and opaque, approximately 2-3 minutes. Remove the shrimp from the skillet and set aside.
- Pour 1 cup of heavy cream and ¾ cup of chicken broth into the same skillet, stirring well. Add the zest and juice of 1 lemon, along with salt and black pepper to taste. Allow the mixture to simmer gently for about 5 minutes, stirring frequently until the sauce slightly thickens.
- Lower the heat and gradually stir in 1 cup of ricotta cheese, 1 cup of shredded mozzarella, and ½ cup of grated Parmesan cheese. Keep stirring until all the cheeses melt into the sauce, then fold in the cooked shrimp.
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Cook the lasagna noodles according to package instructions until al dente. In a greased baking dish, spread a layer of the shrimp and sauce mixture. Place a layer of noodles on top, followed by more sauce and ricotta mix. Repeat layers, finishing with a layer of sauce and an extra sprinkle of mozzarella.
- Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake for 25 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes until bubbly and golden brown.
- Allow the lasagna to cool for 10 minutes. Garnish with chopped parsley before serving.
