Instructions

1. Season the Shrimp

   In a mixing bowl combine the shrimp with olive oil, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, pepper, smoked paprika, dried parsley, Cajun seasoning, and green seasoning. Toss until evenly coated.

   Time: PT5M

2. Rest the Shrimp

   Cover the seasoned shrimp with plastic wrap and let rest at room temperature for 10 minutes to allow the flavors to penetrate.

   Time: PT10M

3. Sauté the Shrimp

   Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a skillet over medium‑high heat. Add the shrimp and cook 1‑2 minutes per side until pink and just cooked through. Remove and set aside.

   Time: PT4M

   Temperature: medium‑high

4. Combine Crab Meat

   In a separate bowl gently fold the lump crab meat with a drizzle of olive oil and a pinch of green seasoning. Toss lightly so the crab stays in chunks.

   Time: PT2M

5. Boil the Lasagna Noodles

   Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the lasagna sheets and cook uncovered for 10 minutes (2 minutes less than package directions). Drain, rinse under cold water, and lay flat on a clean surface.

   Time: PT12M

   Temperature: boiling

6. Sauté Spinach and Sun‑Dried Tomatoes

   In the same skillet, melt 1 tablespoon butter over medium heat. Add the fresh spinach and sun‑dried tomatoes, sauté until spinach wilts, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat.

   Time: PT3M

   Temperature: medium

7. Make the Cheese Roux

   Return the skillet to low heat. Melt 1 tablespoon butter, whisk in flour and cook 1 minute to form a roux. Slowly whisk in heavy cream, stirring constantly until smooth. Add shredded cheddar, Gouda, and cream cheese; stir until melted. Turn off heat; residual heat will finish melting the cheeses.

   Time: PT6M

   Temperature: low

8. Combine Seafood Filling

   In a large bowl combine the sautéed shrimp, seasoned crab meat, wilted spinach‑tomato mixture, and half of the cheese sauce. Mix gently until just combined.

   Time: PT4M

9. Assemble the Rolls

   Lay a lasagna sheet flat. Spoon a generous line of the seafood filling along the short edge, then roll tightly. Repeat with all sheets (you should get nine rolls).

   Time: PT10M

10. Prepare Baking Dish

    Butter the baking dish. Spread a thin layer of the remaining cheese sauce on the bottom. Arrange the rolls seam‑side down, leaving small gaps. Spoon any leftover seafood mixture into the gaps, then drizzle the rest of the cheese sauce over the top. Sprinkle the remaining Gouda, Parmesan, and chopped parsley.

    Time: PT5M

11. Bake and Broil

    Preheat the oven to 350°F. Bake the dish for 20 minutes. Then switch to broil for the final 3 minutes, watching closely until the cheese is bubbly and lightly browned.

    Time: PT23M

    Temperature: 350°F

12. Rest and Serve

    Remove from oven and let rest 5 minutes before slicing. Serve warm, garnished with extra parsley if desired.

    Time: PT5M
