Description
A delightful twist on a classic dish featuring a creamy seafood filling topped with buttery, flaky Cheddar Bay biscuits.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup fresh shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 1 cup fresh scallops
- 1 cup fresh crab meat
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 4 tablespoons butter
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 medium onion, diced
- 1 cup carrots, diced
- 1 cup celery, diced
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme, chopped (or 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme)
- 1 package Cheddar Bay biscuit mix (approximately 7.5 oz)
- 1/2 cup water (for biscuit mix)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- In a large skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add the diced onions, carrots, and celery. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are softened. Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.
- Stir in the shrimp, scallops, and crab meat. Cook for about 3-4 minutes until the shrimp turn pink and the scallops are opaque.
- Pour in the heavy cream and add the chopped thyme. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Allow the mixture to simmer for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it thickens slightly. Remove from heat.
- In a separate bowl, combine the Cheddar Bay biscuit mix with 1/2 cup of water. Stir until just combined. The dough should be slightly sticky.
- Pour the seafood filling into a greased 9-inch pie dish or oven-safe skillet. Spoon the biscuit dough over the top of the seafood mixture, spreading it out evenly.
- Place the pot pie in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the biscuit topping is golden brown and cooked through. Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired. Serve warm and enjoy!
