Ingredients
  

  • 8 ounces Large Shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 8 ounces Sea Scallops, side-muscle removed
  • 8 tablespoons Unsalted Butter, divided
  • 2 cloves Garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cup All-Purpose Flour
  • 4 cups Whole Milk, warmed
  • 1/2 cup Dry White Wine
  • 1/2 teaspoon Kosher Salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon Black Pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon Grated Nutmeg
  • 1 cup Grated Parmesan Cheese
  • 9 No-Boil Lasagna Noodles
  • 16 ounces Whole Milk Ricotta Cheese
  • 1 Large Egg
  • 1/4 cup Fresh Parsley, chopped
  • 1 pound Low-Moisture Mozzarella Cheese, shredded

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). In a bowl, mix ricotta, egg, and parsley; set aside.
  • Pat seafood completely dry. In a large skillet, melt 2 tbsp butter over medium-high heat. Sear scallops for 60-90 seconds per side. Remove. Cook shrimp for 1 minute per side until just pink. Add garlic for 30 seconds. Remove all seafood and roughly chop.
  • In a saucepan, melt remaining 6 tbsp butter over medium heat. Whisk in flour and cook for 2 minutes. Whisk in wine, then gradually whisk in warm milk until smooth. Simmer for 5-8 minutes until thickened. Remove from heat and stir in Parmesan, salt, pepper, and nutmeg.
  • Spread 1 cup of sauce in a 9x13 inch baking dish. Layer with 3 noodles, half the ricotta, one-third of the seafood, one-third of the mozzarella, and 1.5 cups of sauce.
  • Repeat the layer: 3 noodles, remaining ricotta, another third of seafood, another third of mozzarella, and 1.5 cups of sauce.
  • Add the final 3 noodles. Top with remaining sauce, seafood, and mozzarella.
  • Cover with foil and bake for 25 minutes. Remove foil and bake for another 15-20 minutes until golden and bubbly.
  • Let the lasagna rest for at least 15 minutes before slicing and serving. Garnish with fresh parsley.

Notes

Ensure your seafood is patted completely dry to prevent a watery sauce and achieve the best flavor.
