A luxurious seafood lasagna made with frozen seafood mix, sautéed zucchini, and silky béchamel, all layered with dry pasta sheets and baked until golden and creamy.
Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté 30 seconds.
Add thawed seafood mix and cook until the liquid evaporates, about 6–8 minutes. Pour in the white wine and cook until reduced. Add the parsley, season lightly and set aside.
In a separate skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Add cubed zucchini and sauté 5–7 minutes until softened and lightly golden. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
Prepare the béchamel
Melt the butter in a saucepan. Whisk in the flour and cook for 1 minute.
Slowly pour in milk while whisking constantly. Cook over medium heat until thick and smooth, about 6–8 minutes. Season with salt, pepper, and nutmeg.
Add the cooked seafood to the béchamel and stir gently.
Assemble the lasagna
Preheat oven to 375 °F (190 °C).
Spread a thin layer of seafood sauce on the bottom of a 9x13-inch (23x33 cm) baking dish. Add a layer of dry lasagna sheets. Spread a layer of sautéed zucchini. Add more seafood béchamel.
Repeat for 4-5 layers until all the ingredients are used.
Sprinkle Parmesan cheese evenly over the top layer.
Cover with foil (tenting it so it doesn’t touch the cheese) and bake 30 minutes. Remove foil and bake another 10–15 minutes until golden and bubbling.
Let stand 10–15 minutes before slicing and serving.

Notes
If the béchamel becomes too thick, add a splash of milk. Leave it quite runny so the liquid can be absorbed by the pasta as it cooks.
If your lasagna sheets are especially thick, add 5–10 minutes to baking time.
Pat the seafood extra dry if it seems watery after thawing.
