1. The first step in creating this masterpiece is to prepare the delectable garlic butter shrimp scampi. In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Toss in the shrimp and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until they turn pink and opaque. If using, stir in the white wine, lemon juice, and red pepper flakes. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Finish by stirring in the fresh parsley, then set the shrimp scampi aside.

2. Next, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the lasagna noodles according to the package instructions until they reach an al dente texture. Drain the noodles and set them aside, ready to be layered in the dish.

3. In a mixing bowl, combine the ricotta cheese, 1 cup of mozzarella, 1 cup of Parmesan, eggs, Italian seasoning, and nutmeg (if using). Stir until the mixture is smooth and well-blended, creating a creamy and flavorful cheese filling.

4. Preheat your oven to 375°F. In a 9×13-inch baking dish, spread a thin layer of heavy cream on the bottom. Begin layering the dish, starting with the lasagna noodles, followed by the cheese mixture, and then the shrimp scampi. Repeat these layers until all the ingredients are used, ending with a layer of noodles on top. Pour the remaining heavy cream over the top and sprinkle with the remaining mozzarella and Parmesan cheese.

5. Cover the dish with foil and bake for 25 minutes. Remove the foil and continue baking for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.

6. Once the Garlic Butter Shrimp Scampi Lasagna is out of the oven, let it rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving. Garnish with fresh chopped parsley for a beautiful presentation. Indulge in the rich, creamy, and flavor-packed layers, savoring every bite of this delightful fusion dish.
