Ingredients
Scale
Seafood Filling
- 1 pound frozen mixed seafood (shrimp, scallops, crab)
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 1 cup mixed vegetables (carrots and peas)
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon dill weed
Biscuit Topping
- 1 package (7.5 oz) Cheddar Bay Biscuit mix
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter (for biscuit mix, optional)
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to prepare for baking the pot pie with biscuit topping.
- Sauté Vegetables: In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the mixed vegetables and sauté until they are tender, about 5-7 minutes.
- Cook Seafood: Add the frozen mixed seafood to the skillet with the vegetables and cook until the shrimp turn pink and seafood is heated through, approximately 3 to 4 minutes.
- Simmer Cream Sauce: Pour in the heavy cream, then stir in garlic powder and dill weed. Allow the mixture to simmer gently for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens.
- Prepare Biscuit Dough: While the sauce simmers, prepare the Cheddar Bay Biscuit mix according to the package instructions, usually involving combining the mix with water and butter until a dough forms.
- Assemble Pot Pie: Pour the seafood and vegetable creamy mixture into a baking dish evenly. Dollop spoonfuls of the prepared biscuit dough on top, spreading slightly but leaving some gaps.
- Bake: Place the assembled dish in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the biscuit topping is golden brown and cooked through.
- Serve: Remove the pot pie from the oven, allow it to cool slightly, then serve warm for a delicious seafood comfort meal.
Notes
- You can substitute fresh seafood if available, adjusting cooking times accordingly.
- Feel free to add other vegetables like corn or green beans for variety.
- Ensure the seafood is fully thawed if using frozen for even cooking.
- If desired, brush melted butter over the biscuit topping before baking for extra richness.
- Leftover pot pie can be stored in the refrigerator for 2-3 days and reheated gently.
