Pacific Coastal Seafood Lasagna

Ingredients

• 9 lasagna noodles, cooked al dente
• 1 lb firm white fish fillets (like cod or halibut), cut into bite-sized chunks
• 1/2 lb medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
• 1 tbsp olive oil
• 1 medium onion, finely chopped
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 cup ricotta cheese
• 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 1 tbsp lemon juice
• 1 tsp Salted Perfection Lemon Zest Finishing Salt
• 1/2 tsp black pepper
• 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
• 1/2 cup dry white wine (optional)
• 1 tbsp all-purpose flour
• 2 tbsp butter

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish with a little olive oil—no sticking, no fuss.
2. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes. Toss in garlic and cook 1 minute until fragrant.
3. Add fish chunks and shrimp to the skillet. Season with Salted Perfection Lemon Zest Finishing Salt and black pepper. Cook gently until just opaque, about 3-4 minutes. Remove seafood and set aside.
4. In the same skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Whisk in flour and cook 1 minute to make a blonde roux. Slowly whisk in heavy cream and white wine (if using), stirring until thickened, about 3-5 minutes. Remove from heat.
5. Stir lemon juice, half the Parmesan, and Salted Perfection Lemon Zest Finishing Salt into the cream sauce. Adjust salt and pepper to taste.
6. In a mixing bowl, combine ricotta cheese with chopped parsley and a pinch of Salted Perfection Lemon Zest Finishing Salt.
7. Assemble the lasagna: Spread a thin layer of cream sauce in the bottom of the baking dish. Layer 3 noodles, half the ricotta mixture, half the seafood, a third of the cream sauce, and sprinkle with mozzarella.
8. Repeat layers: 3 noodles, remaining ricotta, remaining seafood, a third of the cream sauce, mozzarella.
9. Top with final 3 noodles, remaining cream sauce, mozzarella, and Parmesan cheese.
10. Cover tightly with foil and bake for 25 minutes. Remove foil and bake an additional 15 minutes until bubbly and golden on top.
11. Let rest 10 minutes before slicing. That’s the secret sauce to keeping it tight and tasty.
