Ingredients
  

For the Filling
  • 1 lb shrimp peeled and deveined
  • 1 lb crab meat or imitation crab
  • 1 cup white fish fillets like cod, cut into chunks
  • 1 cup frozen mixed vegetables peas, carrots, corn
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 2 cups chicken or seafood broth
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • Salt and pepper to taste
For the Biscuit Topping
  • 1 package Cheddar Bay Biscuit mix with seasoning packet
  • ¾ cup milk
  • ¼ cup melted butter

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C) and grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
  2. Cook seafood in a skillet over medium heat for 3–4 minutes until shrimp turns pink. Set aside.
  3. Make sauce in the same skillet. Add broth, cream, garlic powder, onion powder, thyme, salt, and pepper. Simmer for 5 minutes.
  4. Add vegetables and cooked seafood to the sauce. Stir and simmer for another 5–6 minutes until slightly thickened.
  5. Mix biscuit dough: Combine biscuit mix and milk in a bowl. Stir until just combined.
  6. Assemble pot pie: Pour seafood mixture into the baking dish. Drop spoonfuls of biscuit dough over the top.
  7. Drizzle butter over biscuits.
  8. Bake uncovered for 25–30 minutes until biscuit topping is golden and cooked through.
  9. Cool 5–10 minutes before serving.

Notes

  • Do not overcook seafood—it finishes in the oven.
  • You can make the biscuit mix from scratch if desired (see article chunk 1).
  • Let pot pie rest before serving for easier scooping.
  • For a spicier twist, add a pinch of cayenne or chopped jalapeños to the sauce.
