How to Make Seaside Stuffed Shells Alfredo Ragu

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Cook pasta shells according to package directions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, combine cooked shrimp (1 pound), lump crab meat (1 cup), ricotta cheese (15 ounces), grated Parmesan cheese (1/2 cup), chopped fresh parsley (1/4 cup), garlic powder (1 teaspoon), salt (1/2 teaspoon), and black pepper (1/4 teaspoon). Mix well.
  4. Spoon the shrimp and crab mixture into the cooked pasta shells.
  5. Place the stuffed shells in a greased 9x13 inch baking dish.
  6. In a separate bowl, combine Ragú Alfredo sauce (24 ounces) and heavy cream (1/2 cup). Pour the sauce over the stuffed shells.
  7. In a small bowl, combine melted butter (2 tablespoons), breadcrumbs (1 cup), and grated Parmesan cheese (1/4 cup). Sprinkle the breadcrumb mixture evenly over the shells.
  8. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the sauce is bubbly and the breadcrumbs are golden brown.
  9. Let stand for 5-10 minutes before serving.
