I was experimenting one day trying to find a different way of having lasagna without tomato sauce and came up with this. Hubby asks for this more than the traditional style.

How To Make seafood lasagna
-
Step 1The seafood blend: Take all frozen seafood and defrost in one bowl or colander. If using a bowl make sure to drain off all the liquid before using in the lasagna. I like to add 1 ladle of the sauce to the seafood, but it's not necessary.
-
Step 2For the sauce: heat a med. saucepan over med/high heat; add approx. 1 T each olive oil and butter; cook onion til tender add garlic; add the jars of Alfredo sauce and bring to a soft boil; add 2 T oregano and 4 T parsley Turn off the heat and let sit while you get the rest of your ingredients together.
-
Step 3For the cheese: Combine together 1 of the pkgs of shredded mozzarella, the ricotta, egg, parmesean cheese, add remaining parsley and oregano, If mixture is too thick add some of your sauce. I find that adding 1-2 ladlefuls of sauce usually makes it the consistency I like for spreading.
-
Step 4to build the lasagna: start by taking a ladle of sauce and spreading over the bottom of the pan; next layer in the oven ready noodles, placing them close but not overlapping; follow with the cheese mixture; next add the seafood in a nice layer; cover with sauce and repeat ending with sauce. Top off with the remaining pkg of shredded cheese.
-
Step 5To bake: Preheat oven to 350; place pan of lasagna on a cookie sheet to prevent the bottom from burning; bake for 30 mins covered with foil; remove foil and bake for an additional 15 mins; let sit for 15 mins before cutting to serve.
