Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Seafood Lasagna with Lobster and Shrimp
  1. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add 1 chopped onion and sauté for about 5 minutes, or until softened and translucent. Stir in 3 minced garlic cloves and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.
  2. Sprinkle in 1 teaspoon of dried oregano, 1 teaspoon of dried basil, and 1/2 teaspoon of red pepper flakes. Stir together for a minute to release flavors.
  3. Pour in 1/4 cup of white wine and scrape browned bits from the skillet. Allow it to simmer for about 4 minutes until reduced by half.
  4. Stir in 2 cups of heavy cream and bring to a gentle simmer. Cook for about 5 minutes until slightly thickened. Add 1.5 cups of cooked lobster meat and 1.5 cups of shrimp, cooking for 3 more minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
  5. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a baking dish and layer three cooked lasagna noodles at the base. Spoon a portion of the seafood mixture over, followed by dollops of 2 cups of ricotta cheese and 1.5 cups of mozzarella cheese.
  6. Repeat layering two more times with remaining ingredients. For the final layer, add leftover seafood mixture, remaining mozzarella, and 1 cup of Parmesan cheese. Garnish with fresh parsley.
  7. Cover with foil and bake for 25 minutes. Remove foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes until the top is golden and bubbly.
  8. Allow the lasagna to rest for at least 10 minutes before slicing.
