Preparation
Step 1
1. Preheat oven to 350°.** No need to cook the noodles.
2. Meanwhile, in a large skillet, heat butter over medium heat. Add shrimp and scallops in batches (sprinkling each batch with Cajun seasoning); cook 2-4 minutes or until shrimp turn pink and scallops are firm and opaque. Remove from pan.
3. Add garlic to same pan; cook 1 minute longer. Add wine and lemon juice, stirring to loosen browned bits from pan. Bring to a boil; cook 1-2 minutes or until liquid is reduced by half. Add crab; heat through. Stir in shrimp and scallops.
4. For cheese sauce, melt butter over medium heat in a large saucepan. Stir in flour until smooth; gradually whisk in milk. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly; cook and stir 1-2 minutes or until thickened. Remove from heat; stir in remaining cheese sauce ingredients. In a large bowl, combine Cottage Cheese mixture ingredients; stir in 1 cup cheese sauce.
5. Spread 1/2 cup cheese sauce into a greased 13x9-in. baking dish. Layer with three noodles, half of the ricotta mixture, half of the seafood mixture and 2/3 cup cheese sauce. Repeat layers. Top with remaining noodles and cheese sauce. Sprinkle with remaining mozzarella cheese and Parmesan cheese.
6. Bake, uncovered, 40-50 minutes or until bubbly and top is golden brown. Let stand 10 minutes before serving. Sprinkle with parsley. Yield: 12 servings.
