Step-by-Step Instructions
- Step 1: Sauté the Aromatics - Heat a tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add one chopped onion and sauté for about 5 minutes, or until the onion is softened and translucent. Stir in three minced garlic cloves and sauté for another minute.
- Step 2: Add the Herbs and Spices - Incorporate a teaspoon each of dried oregano and dried basil along with half a teaspoon of red pepper flakes into the skillet. Stir thoroughly, letting the herbs infuse their flavors for about 1 minute.
- Step 3: Deglaze with White Wine - Pour in a quarter cup of white wine, scraping the bottom of the pan. Simmer for 3-4 minutes until it reduces by half.
- Step 4: Create the Béchamel Sauce - Add 2 cups of heavy cream to the skillet and bring it to a gentle simmer. Stir continuously for about 5 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.
- Step 5: Incorporate the Seafood - Gently fold in 1.5 cups of lobster meat and 1.5 cups of shrimp. Cook for about 3 minutes until just heated through.
- Step 6: Season the Mixture - Season with half a teaspoon of salt and a quarter teaspoon of black pepper, mixing well.
- Step 7: Preheat the Oven and Prepare the Dish - Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with 2 tablespoons of butter.
- Step 8: Start Layering the Lasagna - Begin layering the lasagna with three noodles, a third of the seafood mixture, ricotta cheese, and mozzarella cheese.
- Step 9: Assemble the Remaining Layers - Repeat the layering process two more times and top with remaining mozzarella and Parmesan cheese.

- Step 12: Garnish and Serve - Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and serve hot.

Notes
Let the seafood mixture cool before layering to prevent sogginess. Use fresh herbs for enhanced flavor. Avoid overcooking seafood for best texture.
