How to make Seafood Lasagna
Step 1: In 2 tbsp butter in a large skillet, saute the onion until tender. Pour in the broth and clam juice. Stir and bring to a boil. Add in the scallops, shrimp, crab, and 1/8 tsp pepper and return to a boil. Decrease the heat and simmer for about 4 to 5 minutes, uncovered until the shrimp is pink and the scallops are firm and opaque while gently stirring. Drain the cooking liquid, reserve, and set aside the seafood mixture.
Step 2: Melt the rest of the butter in a large saucepan. Stir in the flour until smooth. Mix the milk and the reserved cooking liquid, then slowly add this to the saucepan. Season with salt and pepper, then bring the mixture to a boil, cooking and stirring for about 2 minutes until thickened.
Step 3: Take the pan from the heat. Combine the cream and 1/4 cup of cheese, then stir in 3/4 cup of this white sauce into the seafood mixture.
Step 4: Prepare the oven. Preheat it to 350 degrees. Meanwhile, in a greased 13 x 9-inch baking dish, spread half a cup white sauce, add the noodles on top, and spread half of the seafood mixture over, then the 1 1/4 cups sauce. Duplicate the layers. When done, place in the preheated oven and bake for about 35 to 40 minutes until golden brown. Remove from the oven and allow the Seafood Lasagna to rest for at least 15 minutes before slicing.
