Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Boil the lasagna noodles according to the package instructions for 8–10 minutes until al dente. Drain and cool.
  3. Heat olive oil in a large skillet, sauté minced garlic for a minute, then add shrimp, cooking until pink, about 3–4 minutes. Mix in crab meat, seasoned with salt, pepper, and chili flakes, sauté for 2–3 more minutes. Remove from heat.
  4. In a mixing bowl, combine ricotta, half of the Parmesan, one cup of mozzarella, parsley, and heavy cream until smooth.
  5. In a baking dish, layer a thin layer of Alfredo sauce, three noodles, followed by cheese mixture, seafood mix, and more sauce. Repeat until layers are formed, finishing with noodles and Alfredo sauce.
  6. Top with remaining Parmesan and mozzarella, add breadcrumbs if desired. Cover with foil and bake for 25 minutes. Remove foil and bake for another 10–15 minutes until golden brown.
  7. Allow lasagna to rest for 10 minutes before serving. Garnish with parsley and serve with salad and garlic bread.

Notes

Ensure seafood is well-drained to avoid watery texture. Allowing lasagna to rest improves slicing. Easy to assemble a day ahead for enhanced flavors.
