Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add 1 chopped onion and sauté for about 5 minutes until it becomes translucent and softens. Then, mix in 3 minced garlic cloves and continue cooking for 1 more minute.
  2. Stir in 1 teaspoon each of dried oregano and basil, along with a pinch of red pepper flakes for a touch of heat. Let the mixture cook for another minute.
  3. Pour in ½ cup of white wine and increase the heat slightly, letting it simmer for about 3-4 minutes.
  4. After the wine has reduced, lower the heat and stir in 1 cup of heavy cream. Allow this mixture to simmer for about 5 minutes.
  5. Gently fold in 1 cup of cooked lobster meat and 1 cup of shrimp, heating them through for about 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  6. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) while the seafood mixture warms through.
  7. Butter a 9x13-inch baking dish generously to prevent sticking. Start layering the dish by placing three cooked lasagna noodles at the bottom.
  8. Repeat the layering process two additional times: noodles, seafood mixture, ricotta, and mozzarella. Finish with a generous layer of the seafood mixture on top.
  9. Top your assembled lasagna with the remaining mozzarella cheese, a sprinkle of Parmesan, and freshly chopped parsley. Cover with aluminum foil.
  10. Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 25 minutes. After this, uncover and let it bake for an additional 10 minutes.
  11. Remove the seafood lasagna from the oven and let it rest for about 10 minutes before slicing.
  12. Serve it with your favorite side, like a fresh salad or garlic bread.
