Instructions
Creating this incredible Seafood Lasagna with Lobster and Shrimp can be straightforward. Follow these simple steps to achieve perfection:
1. Preheat Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Cook Seafood: In a large pan, heat olive oil over medium heat. Sauté garlic and onion until softened. Add shrimp and cook for 3-4 minutes. Stir in chopped lobster and cook for another 2 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
3. Prepare Cheese Mixture: In a bowl, mix ricotta, 1 cup of mozzarella, half of the Parmesan, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Stir until ingredients are well-combined.
4. Prepare Marinara Sauce: If using store-bought sauce, consider enhancing it with herbs or spices. Spread a thin layer of marinara sauce at the bottom of a 9×13 inch baking dish.
5. Layer Ingredients:
– Place 3-4 lasagna noodles over the sauce.
– Spread half of the ricotta cheese mixture over the noodles.
– Add half of the seafood mixture over the ricotta.
– Pour a layer of marinara sauce over the seafood.
6. Repeat Layers:
– Add 3-4 more noodles and repeat the layering process three times, finishing with noodles on top.
– Spread the remaining marinara sauce over the top layer of noodles.
7. Add Cheese: Sprinkle remaining mozzarella and Parmesan cheese generously over the top layer of sauce.
8. Cover with Foil: Loosely cover the baking dish with aluminum foil to prevent burning.
9. Bake: Place in the preheated oven and bake for 40 minutes. Then, remove the foil and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes until the cheese is golden and bubbling.
10. Rest the Lasagna: Once baked, remove from the oven and let it sit for 15-20 minutes for easier slicing.
11. Garnish and Serve: Before serving, sprinkle fresh parsley over the top for decoration.
With these clearly defined steps, you can create an unforgettable Seafood Lasagna with Lobster and Shrimp that everyone will rave about.
