Ingredients

0.5 lb shrimp, peeled and deveined

0.5 lb cooked lobster meat, chopped

4 tablespoons butter

1 cup diced onion

0.5 cup diced celery

0.5 cup diced carrots

2 cloves garlic, minced

0.25 cup all-purpose flour

1.5 cups seafood stock or chicken broth

0.5 cup heavy cream

1 teaspoon Old Bay seasoning

0.5 teaspoon dried thyme

0.25 teaspoon salt

0.25 teaspoon black pepper

0.5 cup frozen peas

2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

1 can refrigerated biscuit dough (8 biscuits)

1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)


Instructions

1. Melt butter in a large oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Add onion, celery, and carrots. Cook until softened, about 5–6 minutes.

2. Stir in garlic and cook for 1 more minute until fragrant.

3. Sprinkle flour over the vegetables. Stir to coat evenly and cook for 2 minutes.

4. Gradually whisk in seafood stock while stirring constantly. Simmer until slightly thickened.

5. Stir in heavy cream, Old Bay seasoning, thyme, salt, and pepper. Let simmer for 3 minutes.

6. Add shrimp and lobster. Cook until just opaque, about 2–3 minutes.

7. Fold in frozen peas and parsley. Remove skillet from heat.

8. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Top the filling evenly with biscuit dough.

9. Brush biscuits with beaten egg for a golden finish.

10. Bake uncovered for 18–22 minutes, or until biscuits are puffed and golden and filling is bubbling.

11. Let cool for 5 minutes before serving.

Notes

Be sure to pat dry shrimp and lobster before cooking to avoid excess liquid.

You can prep the filling ahead and refrigerate; just add biscuits before baking.

Swap seafood stock with chicken broth if needed, but seafood stock adds extra depth.
