Ingredients

For the Lasagna:

• 1 box of lasagna noodles

• 1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined

• 4 cloves garlic, minced

• 1/2 cup butter

• 1/4 cup all purpose flour

• 2 cups milk

• 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese

• 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

• 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley

• Salt and pepper to taste

For the Garlic Butter Sauce:

• 1/2 cup butter

• 4 cloves garlic, minced

• 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley

• 1 tablespoon lemon juice

• Salt and pepper to taste

Directions

1. Cook the Lasagna Noodles: Prepare the lasagna noodles according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside.

2. Prepare the Shrimp: In a large skillet, melt 1/2 cup butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes. Add the shrimp and cook until pink and opaque, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove the shrimp from the skillet and set aside.

3. Make the Garlic Butter Sauce: In the same skillet, melt 1/2 cup butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes. Stir in the flour and cook for 1 minute. Gradually whisk in the milk, ensuring there are no lumps. Cook until the sauce thickens, about 3-5 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in the Parmesan cheese until melted. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

4. Assemble the Lasagna: Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). In a baking dish, spread a thin layer of the garlic butter sauce. Place a layer of lasagna noodles over the sauce. Spread a layer of the garlic butter sauce over the noodles, followed by a layer of shrimp and a sprinkle of mozzarella cheese. Repeat the layers, ending with a layer of sauce and mozzarella cheese on top.

5. Bake: Cover the baking dish with foil and bake for 25 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the cheese is golden and bubbly.

6. Garnish and Serve: Remove the lasagna from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Garnish with chopped parsley before serving.
