Ingredients

Scale

Seafood and Vegetables

  • 1 pound frozen mixed seafood (shrimp, scallops, crab)
  • 1 cup mixed vegetables (carrots and peas)

Seasonings and Dairy

  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 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 Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to ensure it’s ready for baking once the seafood mixture and biscuit topping are prepared.
  2. Sauté Vegetables: In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter. Add the mixed vegetables and sauté until tender, about 5-7 minutes, which helps release their flavors and softens them for the pot pie filling.
  3. Cook Seafood: Add the frozen mixed seafood to the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until the shrimp turn pink and the seafood is cooked through, about 3-4 minutes.
  4. Add Cream and Seasonings: Pour in the heavy cream, then stir in the garlic powder and dill weed. Let the mixture simmer gently for 5 minutes or until it thickens slightly, creating a rich, flavorful filling.
  5. Prepare Biscuit Mix: While the filling simmers, prepare the Cheddar Bay Biscuit mix according to the package instructions. This usually involves mixing the biscuit mix with water or milk to form a dough.
  6. Assemble Pot Pie: Transfer the seafood and vegetable filling to a baking dish. Dollop spoonfuls of the biscuit dough evenly over the top of the mixture, covering as much surface as possible.
  7. Bake: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the biscuit topping is puffed and golden brown, and the filling is bubbly.
  8. Serve: Remove from oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving for the best texture and flavor.

Notes

  • Make sure the seafood is fully thawed before cooking if using frozen to ensure even cooking.
  • You can substitute frozen mixed vegetables with fresh ones if preferred, adjusting cooking time as needed.
  • For a spicier variation, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or smoked paprika to the filling.
  • Leftovers can be stored covered in the refrigerator for up to 2 days and reheated in the oven to maintain crispiness of the biscuit topping.
  • To make it gluten-free, use a gluten-free biscuit mix and verify all other ingredients are gluten-free.
