Ingredients

Scale

Seafood Mixture

  • 1 pound frozen mixed seafood (shrimp, scallops, crab)
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup mixed vegetables (carrots and peas)
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon dill weed
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter

Biscuit Topping

  • 1 package (7.5 oz) Cheddar Bay Biscuit mix

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to ensure it reaches the perfect temperature for baking the pot pie.
  2. Sauté the vegetables: In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter. Add the mixed vegetables and sauté until they are tender, which brings out their natural sweetness and softens their texture for the filling.
  3. Cook the seafood: Stir the frozen mixed seafood into the skillet with the sautéed vegetables. Cook until the shrimp turn pink and the seafood is heated through, about 3-4 minutes, being careful not to overcook.
  4. Simmer in cream and seasoning: Pour in the heavy cream, then add garlic powder and dill weed to the skillet. Simmer the mixture for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally until the sauce thickens slightly, making a rich and flavorful filling.
  5. Prepare biscuit dough: While the seafood mixture simmers, prepare the Cheddar Bay Biscuit mix according to the package instructions to create the biscuit dough topping.
  6. Assemble the pot pie: Pour the creamy seafood and vegetable mixture into a baking dish. Dollop spoonfuls of the biscuit dough evenly over the top of the seafood mixture to cover it.
  7. Bake: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes or until the biscuit topping is golden brown and cooked through, creating a delicious crust.

Notes

  • Use fresh or thawed seafood for best results and even cooking.
  • You can substitute the mixed vegetables with your favorites like corn or green beans.
  • Serve with a side salad for a complete meal.
  • Leftovers can be refrigerated for up to 2 days and reheated in the oven to retain crispness of biscuits.
