Ingredients
- 12 lasagna noodles
- 1 cup cooked shrimp, chopped
- 1 cup crab meat (real or imitation)
- 2 cups Alfredo sauce, divided
- 1 1/2 cups ricotta cheese
- 1 1/2 cups mozzarella cheese, shredded (divided)
- 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, grated (divided)
- 1 clove garlic, minced (or 1/2 tsp garlic powder)
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning
- 1 tbsp olive oil (optional, for sautéing garlic/shrimp)
- 1 egg
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Cook lasagna noodles according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and lay flat on a parchment-lined surface.
- In a large bowl, mix ricotta cheese, egg, half the mozzarella, half the Parmesan, chopped shrimp, crab, garlic, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper.
- Spread 1/3 of the Alfredo sauce on the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish.
- Spoon the seafood-cheese mixture evenly across each noodle and roll them up tightly.
- Place roll-ups seam-side down in the prepared dish. Pour remaining Alfredo sauce over the top.
- Sprinkle with the rest of the mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses.
- Cover with foil and bake for 25 minutes. Then uncover and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until bubbly and golden.
- Let rest for 5–10 minutes before serving. Garnish with chopped parsley.
Notes
- Substitute imitation crab for real crab to save cost.
- Use frozen shrimp (thawed and dried) for convenience.
- Add red pepper flakes or Cajun seasoning for a spicy kick.
- Fontina or Gruyère can replace mozzarella for a richer flavor.
- To lighten the dish, use part-skim ricotta and light Alfredo sauce.
