Ingredients

→ Pasta

12 lasagna noodles

→ Seafood

1 pound shrimp, peeled and deveined

1 pound crab meat

→ Cheeses

2 cups ricotta cheese

2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese

1 cup grated Parmesan cheese

→ Sauces and Creams

4 cups Alfredo sauce

1 cup heavy cream

→ Seasonings

2 cloves garlic, minced

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped

1 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon black pepper

1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes

→ Toppings

1/2 cup breadcrumbs


Instructions

Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Cook lasagna noodles according to package instructions, then drain and set aside.

Sauté Seafood: In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add garlic and cook for 1 minute. Add shrimp and cook until pink, 3–4 minutes. Stir in crab, salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes. Cook for 2–3 more minutes. Remove from heat.

Mix Cheese Filling: In a bowl, combine ricotta, 1 cup mozzarella, 1/2 cup Parmesan, heavy cream, and chopped parsley.

Assemble Lasagna:

Spread a thin layer of Alfredo sauce on the bottom of a 9×13-inch baking dish.

Add a layer of noodles, 1/3 of cheese mixture, 1/3 seafood mixture, and drizzle with Alfredo sauce.

Repeat layers twice more.

Top with final noodles, Alfredo sauce, remaining mozzarella, Parmesan, and breadcrumbs.

Bake: Cover with foil and bake for 25 minutes. Remove foil and bake for another 10–15 minutes until golden and bubbly.

Rest: Let sit for 10 minutes before slicing. Garnish with parsley if desired.

Notes

Resting after baking helps flavors meld and makes slicing easier.

Use a seafood blend or substitute with lobster for extra luxury.

Fresh parsley adds brightness—don’t skip the garnish!
