Step‑by‑Step Instructions
- Melt 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter over medium heat in a large skillet. Add minced garlic and chopped shallots, sauté until fragrant for about 2 minutes. Add shrimp and scallops, cooking until opaque (3-4 minutes). Gently fold in crab meat and remove from heat.
- Melt 4 tablespoons of unsalted butter over low heat in a saucepan. Stir in ¼ cup of flour, whisk for 2 minutes to form a roux. Gradually add 3 cups of warmed milk, whisking consistently for 5-7 minutes until the sauce thickens. Season with salt, pepper, and a pinch of nutmeg, then remove from heat.
- In a bowl, combine 1 cup of ricotta cheese, ½ cup of grated Parmesan cheese, lemon zest, and parsley. Mix until creamy, adding salt and pepper to taste.
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). In a buttered baking dish, layer ½ cup of béchamel sauce, followed by lasagna noodles, a third of the ricotta mixture, half of the seafood, and shredded mozzarella. Repeat layers, finishing with béchamel and mozzarella on top.
- Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 30 minutes. Remove foil and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes until the top is golden. Allow to cool for 10 minutes before serving.
