  2. Toss in the shrimp, scallops, and crab meat, cooking for about 5 minutes until the shrimp turns pink and scallops are cooked through.
  3. Remove from heat and set aside.
Prepare the Béchamel Sauce
  1. In a saucepan, melt 3 tbsp of butter over medium heat.
  2. Stir in the flour, and cook for 1 minute to create a roux.
  3. Gradually whisk in the milk, continuing to stir until smooth and thickened.
  4. Stir in the Parmesan cheese, salt, pepper, and lemon juice.

  2. Repeat with remaining crepes.
  3. Pour the béchamel sauce over the crepes and sprinkle with fresh parsley.
