Step 3: Assemble the Lasagna

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Spread a thin layer of cheese sauce at the bottom of a 9×13-inch baking dish to prevent sticking.
  3. Place the first layer of lasagna noodles on top.
  4. Spread a portion of the seafood mixture evenly over the noodles.
  5. Spoon over a generous layer of cheese sauce.
  6. Repeat the layers: noodles → seafood → cheese sauce until all ingredients are used, finishing with a layer of cheese sauce on top.
  7. Sprinkle shredded mozzarella on the top layer for a golden, bubbly finish.

Step 4: Bake

  1. Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake for 25 minutes.
  2. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10–15 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and bubbling.
  3. Let the lasagna rest for 10 minutes before serving. This helps the layers set and makes slicing easier.

Step 5: Serve

  • Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and a light drizzle of lemon juice for an added zing.
  • Pair with a crisp white wine or a simple green salad for a restaurant-worthy meal at home.

Tips for the Perfect Seafood Lasagna

  • Avoid overcooking seafood—shrimp and crab can become rubbery if cooked too long.
  • Use fresh seafood for the best flavor; frozen works in a pinch, but thaw completely first.
  • Cheese variations: Add Gruyère or Fontina for a richer taste.
  • Make-ahead: This lasagna can be assembled a day in advance and baked just before serving.

This Seafood Lasagna with Shrimp & Crab is a show-stopper for dinner parties, family gatherings, or a luxurious weeknight treat. The creamy cheese sauce, tender pasta, and succulent seafood layers create a harmonious blend that will have everyone asking for seconds.


If you want, I can also create a lighter, white wine-infused version of this seafood lasagna that’s even more flavorful and restaurant-style.
