Ingredients

Scale

Seafood Filling

  • 2 cups cooked seafood mix (shrimp, crab, and scallops)
  • 1 cup frozen mixed vegetables (peas, carrots, corn)
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup chicken or seafood broth
  • 1/2 cup diced onion
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon Old Bay seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

Cheddar Bay Biscuit Topping

  • 1 package (8.5 oz) Cheddar Bay Biscuit mix
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup water

Instructions

  1. Prepare Filling Base: Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). In a large pot, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium heat. Sauté 1/2 cup diced onion until soft and translucent, about 5-7 minutes. Add 1/4 cup all-purpose flour along with 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1 teaspoon Old Bay seasoning, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Cook the mixture for 1 minute to cook out the raw flour flavor.
  2. Simmer Sauce: Gradually whisk in 1 cup heavy cream and 1 cup chicken or seafood broth. Bring the mixture to a simmer, whisking frequently to prevent lumps, and cook for 5-7 minutes until the sauce thickens to a gravy-like consistency, creating a creamy base for the filling.
  3. Combine Filling: Remove the sauce from heat. Gently fold in 2 cups cooked seafood mix and 1 cup frozen mixed vegetables until evenly combined and heated through. Transfer this rich seafood mixture into a 9×13-inch baking dish, spreading it into an even layer.
  4. Prepare Biscuits: In a separate bowl, prepare the Cheddar Bay Biscuit mix according to the package instructions, substituting the required liquid with 1/2 cup water. Fold 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese directly into the biscuit dough for added cheesy goodness.
  5. Assemble and Bake: Drop spoonfuls of biscuit dough evenly over the seafood filling, covering as much surface as possible without overlapping excessively. Bake the pot pie at 400°F (200°C) for 25-30 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and the filling is bubbly. If your biscuit mix comes with a garlic butter topping, prepare it and brush over the warm biscuits immediately after removing them from the oven to maximize flavor.
  6. Rest and Serve: Let the pot pie rest for 10-15 minutes after baking to allow the filling to set and thicken further, which also helps with portioning. Serve warm and enjoy the comforting combination of cheesy biscuits and creamy seafood goodness.

Notes

  • Use fresh or thawed cooked seafood for best flavor and texture.
  • If you prefer a thicker filling, allow the sauce to simmer longer before adding seafood.
  • For a spicier kick, add cayenne pepper or extra Old Bay seasoning to the filling.
  • Leftovers can be refrigerated for up to 3 days and reheated in the oven.
  • Substitute chicken broth with seafood broth for a more pronounced ocean flavor.
  • Brush biscuits with melted garlic butter immediately after baking for authentic Cheddar Bay Biscuit taste.
