Topped with golden breadcrumbs and baked to bubbly perfection, this elegant seafood lasagna is perfect for holidays, dinner parties, or whenever you’re craving a comforting seafood casserole.

Ingredients

  • For the pasta:
  • 12 lasagna noodles
  • For the seafood:
  • 1 lb shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 1 lb lump crab meat
  • For the cheese mixture:
  • 2 cups ricotta cheese
  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese (divided)
  • 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese (divided)
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
  • For the sauce and seasoning:
  • 4 cups Alfredo sauce
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp black pepper
  • ½ tsp red pepper flakes (optional)
  • Topping:
  • ½ cup breadcrumbs

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Boil lasagna noodles until al dente. Drain and lay flat on parchment paper.
  3. In a skillet, heat olive oil. Sauté garlic for 1 minute. Add shrimp and cook until pink, 3–4 minutes. Stir in crab, season with salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes. Remove from heat.
  4. Combine ricotta, 1 cup mozzarella, ½ cup Parmesan, heavy cream, and parsley in a bowl.
  5. Spread a thin layer of Alfredo sauce in a 9×13-inch dish. Layer noodles, cheese mixture, seafood, and sauce. Repeat 3 times. Finish with noodles and remaining sauce.
  6. Add remaining mozzarella, Parmesan, and breadcrumbs on top. Cover with foil and bake 25 minutes. Remove foil and bake another 10–15 minutes until golden and bubbly.
  7. Let rest 10 minutes before slicing. Garnish with fresh parsley.

Notes

  • Substitute lobster or scallops for crab or shrimp.
  • Add sautéed spinach or mushrooms between layers.
  • Use cottage cheese instead of ricotta for a lighter version.
  • Homemade Alfredo adds extra depth and creaminess.
  • Skip breadcrumbs if preferred—use more Parmesan for a crisp top.
