  • 1 tablespoon garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the lasagna noodles according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside.
  2. Step 2: In a mixing bowl, combine the chopped shrimp, crab meat, ricotta cheese, half of the Alfredo sauce, and minced garlic. Season the mixture with salt and pepper to taste.
  3. Step 3: Spread a thin layer of Alfredo sauce on the bottom of a baking dish. Lay out each lasagna noodle, spoon some of the seafood mixture onto one end, then roll the noodle up. Place each roll seam-side down in the dish.

Tips & Variations

  • Use fresh seafood for the best flavor or substitute with cooked chicken if preferred.
  • Adding a pinch of red pepper flakes to the filling can give the dish a nice subtle kick.
  • If you prefer a lighter version, swap half of the Alfredo sauce for a béchamel or tomato cream sauce.
  • Make sure not to overfill the noodles to prevent the rolls from breaking when rolling.

Storage

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat covered in the oven at 350°F (175°C) until warmed through, or microwave in short intervals checking frequently to avoid drying out.

FAQs

Can I prepare this dish in advance?

Yes, you can assemble the roll-ups and refrigerate them covered for up to 24 hours before baking. Just add a few extra minutes to the baking time if baking straight from the fridge.

If you don’t have Alfredo sauce on hand, you can make a quick version by combining butter, cream, garlic, and Parmesan cheese, or substitute with a creamy béchamel sauce.
