Ingredients:
For the Shrimp:
1 lb large shrimp (peeled and deveined)
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon garlic powder
Salt and pepper to taste
For the Alfredo Sauce:
1/2 cup unsalted butter
2 cloves garlic (minced)
1 cup heavy cream
1 cup whole milk
1 1/2 cups grated Parmesan cheese
Salt and pepper to taste
For the Lasagna:
9 lasagna noodles (cooked and drained)
2 cups ricotta cheese
2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
Fresh parsley (for garnish)
Instructions:
Prepare the Shrimp: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the shrimp, season with garlic powder, salt, and pepper, and cook for about 2-3 minutes per side, or until pink and opaque. Remove from heat and set aside.
Make the Alfredo Sauce: In a large saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Stir in the heavy cream and milk, bringing the mixture to a simmer. Once simmering, gradually stir in the Parmesan cheese, and continue to cook until the sauce thickens. Season with salt and pepper.
Assemble the Lasagna: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Spread a thin layer of Alfredo sauce in the bottom of a 9×13-inch baking dish. Place a layer of lasagna noodles over the sauce. Spread a layer of ricotta cheese, followed by a few shrimp, then top with mozzarella cheese. Repeat the layers until all ingredients are used, finishing with a layer of mozzarella cheese on top.
Bake the Lasagna: Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.
Serve: Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and serve warm. Enjoy your creamy Shrimp Alfredo Lasagna with a side of garlic bread and a fresh salad!
This Shrimp Alfredo Lasagna is the perfect dish for a comforting, creamy meal with a seafood twist. The combination of shrimp, Alfredo sauce, and layers of cheese makes this lasagna a rich and indulgent treat!
