Ingredients

Scale
  • 12 lasagna noodles (uncooked)
  • 1 1/2 lbs large shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter
  • 8 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 lemon, zested and juiced
  • 1/4 cup dry white wine or chicken broth
  • 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped

  • 1 1/2 cups heavy cream
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Butter a 9×13-inch baking dish.
  2. Cook lasagna noodles in salted water until al dente. Drain and lay flat.
  3. Melt 1/2 cup butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add garlic and sauté until fragrant.
  4. Add shrimp, cook until just pink (2-3 min). Remove shrimp, reserve juices.
  5. Deglaze pan with white wine, lemon juice, and zest. Simmer 2 min.
  6. Mix ricotta, egg, Parmesan, half the parsley, a pinch of salt and pepper in a bowl.
  7. Slice shrimp in half lengthwise (reserve a few whole for top).
  8. To assemble: spread 1/3 cream on bottom. Layer noodles, ricotta, shrimp, mozzarella. Repeat layers, finishing with mozzarella.
  9. Pour reserved garlic butter and pan juices over top. Arrange whole shrimp, sprinkle with parsley & red pepper flakes.
  10. Cover with foil, bake 30 min. Uncover, bake 20 min until bubbly and golden.
  11. Let rest 15 min before slicing. Serve warm, garnished with lemon wedges.

Notes

For best results, use wild-caught shrimp and fresh lemon. You can substitute chicken broth for wine and use gluten-free noodles or dairy-free cheese as needed. Let the lasagna rest before slicing for cleaner portions. Garnish with extra parsley and lemon wedges for a fresh finish.
