Directions:

  1. Béchamel Sauce First: Melt butter in a saucepan, whisk in flour until smooth, then slowly add milk while whisking. Keep stirring to avoid lumps!
  2. Sauté the Seafood: Sauté onions and garlic until fragrant, add seafood, season with salt & pepper, and deglaze with white wine. Cook until just pink and tender.
  3. Cook the Mushrooms: Sauté mushrooms in the same pan to soak up all that delicious seafood flavor. Then stir in the béchamel sauce, tomatoes, cream, herbs, and red pepper flakes. Simmer gently.
  4. Layer the Lasagna: In a buttered dish, start with a thin layer of sauce, then alternate layers of seafood, noodles, sauce, and cheese. Repeat until all ingredients are used up.
  5. Bake: Bake at 375°F for 40-50 minutes until golden and bubbly. If the top starts to brown too fast, cover loosely with foil.
