# Step-by-Step Guide:
01 -
Once it’s out of the oven, let it sit for a few minutes so it sets. Sprinkle parsley on top right before digging in.
02 -
Toss some foil on top and bake about 25 minutes. Pull off the foil and let it bake another 10 so the cheese gets bubbly and golden.
03 -
First, put a little garlic butter sauce on the bottom of your baking dish. Lay down some noodles, top with sauce, then pile on cooked shrimp and mozzarella. Just keep layering things up until everything’s gone, making sure you finish off with extra sauce and cheese.
04 -
Fire up your oven to 375°F (190°C) so it gets nice and hot.
05 -
Pour milk into your skillet bit by bit, whisking all the while so it stays lump-free. Keep stirring until it gets thick. Off the heat, toss in Parmesan and let it melt in. Throw in a little salt and pepper—taste and tweak as needed.
06 -
Sprinkle in the flour and stir without stopping for about a minute. You want it all mixed in.
07 -
Use that same skillet—melt the other half of your butter, then stir in the rest of the minced garlic. Let it cook until your kitchen smells amazing.
08 -
Melt half your butter in a big skillet—medium heat works best. Add the garlic and let it cook for a minute or two until you can really smell it. Throw in the shrimp, cook them until they turn pink on both sides (should only take a couple minutes each). Move the cooked shrimp onto a plate for now.
09 -
Boil up a big pot of salted water and cook your lasagna noodles how it says on the box. Once they're done, drain them and set aside.
# Additional Notes:
01 -
You can swap in no-boil noodles and just layer them straight in if you’re in a hurry.
02 -
Try tossing in some red pepper flakes with the garlic butter sauce if you want a little kick.
03 -
Check your sauce’s flavor as you go and add a bit more salt or pepper if it needs a boost.
