Ingredients
Scale
Seafood Filling
- 1 cup cooked shrimp, chopped
- 1 cup lump crab meat, drained and picked over
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon Old Bay seasoning
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 cup ricotta cheese
- ½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese (from the 1 cup total)
Roll-Ups & Sauce
- 8 lasagna noodles
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 (15-ounce) jar Alfredo sauce
- ½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese (remaining from 1 cup total)
Garnish
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare Lasagna Noodles: Preheat the oven to 375°F. Cook the lasagna noodles in salted boiling water until al dente. Drain carefully, rinse with cool water to stop cooking, and lay flat on a parchment-lined surface to prevent sticking.
- Sauté Garlic: In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant, taking care not to brown it.
- Make Seafood Filling: In a large bowl, combine the cooked shrimp, crab meat, ricotta cheese, ½ cup shredded mozzarella, grated Parmesan, sautéed garlic, Old Bay seasoning, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly to create a well-blended filling.
- Assemble Roll-Ups: Spread approximately 2 tablespoons of the seafood mixture evenly on each lasagna noodle. Gently roll each noodle up, ensuring the filling stays inside.
- Prepare Baking Dish: Spread ½ cup of Alfredo sauce evenly across the bottom of a 9×13-inch baking dish to prevent sticking and add moisture.
- Arrange Roll-Ups: Place each roll-up seam side down into the baking dish on top of the Alfredo sauce layer.
- Add Sauce and Cheese: Pour the remaining Alfredo sauce over the roll-ups, ensuring they are well covered. Sprinkle the remaining ½ cup mozzarella cheese evenly on top.
- Bake: Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Then, remove the foil and continue baking uncovered for an additional 10 to 15 minutes until the sauce is bubbly and the cheese is golden brown.
- Garnish and Serve: Once baked, garnish with chopped fresh parsley for a burst of color and fresh flavor before serving warm.
Notes
- You can substitute cooked bay shrimp or imitation crab to create a more budget-friendly version without compromising flavor.
- For an extra layer of flavor, gently mix in a small amount of lemon zest into the seafood filling before assembling the roll-ups.
