How to Make Dive into Decadence: Shrimp & Crab Alfredo Lasagna Roll-Ups 🦐🦀

1. Preheat your oven to 375°F and lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with butter or cooking spray.
2. In a medium skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant. Remove from heat and stir in shrimp, crab meat, lemon zest, parsley, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes. Set aside.
3. In a mixing bowl, combine ricotta cheese, half the Parmesan, and half the mozzarella. Gently fold the seafood mixture into the cheese mixture until well combined.
4. Spread about 1/2 cup of Alfredo sauce evenly on the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
5. Lay out each cooked lasagna noodle on a clean surface. Spread an even layer of the shrimp and crab filling over each noodle, then carefully roll each noodle from one end to the other.
6. Place the roll-ups seam-side down in the baking dish. Pour the remaining Alfredo sauce over the top, then sprinkle the remaining mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses evenly over the roll-ups.
7. Cover the dish with foil and bake for 20 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly with golden edges.
8. Let the roll-ups cool for 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with extra chopped parsley and a sprinkle of lemon zest for a fresh burst of flavor.

Tips for the Best Results

• Use fresh or high-quality frozen seafood for the best flavor and texture.
• Cook lasagna noodles just until al dente to prevent tearing when rolling.
• Warm the Alfredo sauce slightly if using store-bought for easier spreading.
• Don’t overstuff the noodles to keep the roll-ups neat and easy to handle.
• Let the dish rest briefly after baking to allow the sauce to thicken and flavors to meld.

Storage and Reheating

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To freeze, place the unbaked roll-ups in a freezer-safe dish, cover tightly, and freeze for up to 2 months.

To reheat refrigerated leftovers, cover with foil and warm in a 350°F oven for 15-20 minutes until heated through. For frozen portions, thaw overnight in the fridge before reheating using the same method.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use fresh crab and shrimp instead of cooked?

What can I substitute for Alfredo sauce if I want a lighter version?

Can I prepare this recipe ahead of time?

Yes, assemble the roll-ups and store covered in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours before baking for convenient meal prep.
