Description

This Seafood Lasagna is a luxurious twist on the classic Italian comfort food, combining tender pasta sheets with a rich, garlic-infused white wine sauce. The dish features a generous filling of cooked shrimp, bay scallops, and sweet crabmeat, all bound together by a velvety mozzarella and cottage cheese blend. It offers a delicate balance of savory depth from the broth and wine, with fresh notes from basil and green onions. Perfect for special family dinners or potlucks where you want to impress without spending hours in the kitchen, this bake delivers hearty satisfaction. The layers meld beautifully in the oven, creating a dish that is both elegant and deeply comforting. Serve with a simple green salad for a complete meal.

  2. In a large saucepan, melt butter over low heat.
  3. Add crushed garlic and stir for 1 minute until fragrant.
  4. Whisk in flour and salt, cooking for 1-2 minutes to form a roux.

  7. Remove from heat and stir in mozzarella cheese, green onions, basil, and pepper until cheese is melted.
  8. Fold in cottage cheese, shrimp, scallops, and crabmeat gently.
  9. Spread about 1.5 cups of the seafood sauce mixture into an ungreased 9x13 inch baking dish.
  10. Top with 5 uncooked lasagna noodles, overlapping as needed to cover the sauce.
  11. Spread 1.5 cups of the remaining sauce over the noodles.
  12. Add another layer of 5 uncooked lasagna noodles.
  13. Spread 1.5 cups of sauce over the second noodle layer.
  14. Top with the final 5 uncooked lasagna noodles.
