1/4 cup white wine or chicken broth

1 lemon, zest and juice

2 cups ricotta cheese

1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese

2 cups heavy cream

1 tsp Italian seasoning

Salt and pepper, to taste

2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Step-by-Step Instructions

1️⃣ Cook the Lasagna Noodles:

Cook the lasagna noodles according to package instructions. Drain and lay them flat to prevent sticking.

2️⃣ Prepare the Garlic Butter Shrimp:

In a skillet, melt the butter and sauté minced garlic until fragrant. Add shrimp, cooking for 2-3 minutes per side. Stir in wine (or broth), lemon zest, and juice. Cook for another 2 minutes, then set the shrimp aside.

3️⃣ Make the Creamy Sauce:

In the same skillet, add heavy cream and bring to a simmer. Stir in Italian seasoning, Parmesan, and half the mozzarella until the cheese melts. Season with salt and pepper.

4️⃣ Assemble the Lasagna:

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Spread a thin layer of sauce in a 9x13 baking dish. Layer with noodles, ricotta, shrimp, and sauce. Repeat until all ingredients are used, finishing with sauce and mozzarella.

5️⃣ Bake the Lasagna:

Cover with foil and bake for 25 minutes. Uncover and bake an additional 10-15 minutes until golden brown and bubbly.

6️⃣ Serve & Garnish:

Let rest for 10 minutes before slicing. Garnish with parsley and extra Parmesan.
