  • 2 cups crab meat (fresh or canned)
  • 1 onion, finely chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup white wine (substitute with seafood broth if preferred)
  • 3 cups ricotta cheese
  • 1 egg, beaten
  • 2 cups mozzarella cheese, shredded
  • 1 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
  • 3 cups béchamel sauce (or use a store-bought Alfredo sauce)

If you’re feeling adventurous, you can swap out the seafood for your favorites or what’s freshest at your local market. This adaptability is part of what makes this recipe so special—it’s a dish that can evolve with your tastes and the seasons.

Instructions

Now, let’s get cooking! Follow these steps to create your own seafood masterpiece:

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Cook the lasagna noodles according to the package instructions. Once cooked, drain and set aside.
  3. In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic, sautéing until fragrant and translucent, about 3 minutes.
  4. Add the shrimp and scallops to the skillet, cooking until they start to turn opaque, approximately 5 minutes. Stir in the crab meat and continue cooking for another 2 minutes.
  5. Pour in the white wine and lemon juice, allowing the mixture to simmer until most of the liquid has evaporated, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
  6. In a bowl, combine the ricotta cheese and beaten egg. Mix well and set aside.
  7. Spread a thin layer of béchamel sauce on the bottom of a 9×13-inch baking dish. Place three lasagna noodles over the sauce.
  8. Layer half of the seafood mixture over the noodles, followed by half of the ricotta mixture. Sprinkle with a third of the mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses.
  9. Repeat the layers, starting with another layer of noodles, then seafood, ricotta, and cheeses.
  10. Top with the remaining noodles, béchamel sauce, and the last of the mozzarella and Parmesan.
  11. Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake for 25 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.
  12. Let the lasagna sit for 10 minutes before serving. Garnish with chopped parsley for a fresh finish.

As you bake, let the aromas fill your kitchen, setting the stage for a meal that’s as much about the experience as it is about the taste.
