🍳 Instructions

Cook Seafood:

Make Cheese Sauce:

1. In a saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Add garlic and cook for 1 minute. Whisk in flour to form a roux and cook for 2 minutes. Gradually whisk in milk and cream, cooking until sauce thickens. Stir in mozzarella, Parmesan, salt, pepper, and herbs until smooth.

Assemble Lasagna:

1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Spread a thin layer of cheese sauce in the bottom of a baking dish. Layer noodles, half the seafood mixture, and cheese sauce. Repeat layers ending with noodles and top with remaining cheese sauce and shredded mozzarella.

Bake:

1. Cover with foil and bake for 30 minutes. Remove foil and bake another 10-15 minutes until golden and bubbly.

Serve:

1. Let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing. Garnish with fresh parsley or basil.
