Ingredients

• 12 sheets Lasagna noodles
• 6 tablespoons Butter
• 6 tablespoons All-purpose flour
• 4 cups Whole milk
• 1 cup Heavy cream
• 1 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
• 1.5 teaspoons Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 3 cloves Garlic, minced
• 1 pound Shrimp, peeled, deveined, and chopped
• 1 pound Scallops, small or chopped
• 1 pound Crab meat, lump or claw
• 3 cups Ricotta cheese
• 3 cups Mozzarella cheese, shredded
• 0.25 cup Fresh parsley, chopped
• 1 teaspoon Lemon zest

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish and set aside.

Step 2

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook lasagna noodles according to package directions until al dente. Drain and lay flat on a clean towel to prevent sticking.

Step 3

In a medium saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Stir in the flour and cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly, until a smooth paste forms.

Step 4

Gradually whisk in the milk and heavy cream. Cook, whisking frequently, until the mixture thickens to a smooth sauce, about 5-7 minutes.

Step 5

Stir in Parmesan cheese, salt, and black pepper. Remove from heat and set aside.

Step 6

In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of butter or olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.

Step 7

Add the shrimp and scallops to the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until just barely cooked through. Stir in the crab meat and cook for another 1 minute. Remove from heat.

Step 8

In a mixing bowl, combine ricotta cheese, 2 cups of mozzarella cheese, chopped parsley, and lemon zest. Stir until well blended.

Step 9

To assemble the lasagna, spread a thin layer of white sauce on the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Layer 4 lasagna noodles over the sauce.

Step 10

Spread 1/3 of the ricotta mixture over the noodles, followed by 1/3 of the seafood mixture. Drizzle with white sauce.

Step 11

Repeat these layers two more times, ending with a layer of white sauce on top.

Step 12

Sprinkle the remaining 1 cup of mozzarella cheese evenly over the top of the lasagna.

Step 13

Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil (be sure it doesn’t touch the cheese) and bake for 35 minutes.

Step 14

Remove the foil and bake for an additional 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is golden and bubbly.

Step 15

Let the lasagna rest for 10 minutes before slicing. Garnish with additional parsley if desired and serve!
