Ingredients
Scale
- 12 oz of langostino or lobster meat
- 1/2 cup chopped bell peppers
- 1 lb peeled and deveined shrimp
- 1 cup diced onions
- 8 oz cooked jumbo lump crab
- 1/4 cup finely diced celery
- Olive oil for sautéing
- 1 tsp of salt (plus extra if needed)
- 1 tsp of pepper (plus extra if needed)
- 4 tbsp of butter
- 1/2 tsp of smoked paprika
- 1 tsp of dried tarragon
- 1 tbsp garlic, minced or paste
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 tsp thyme
- 5 tbsp all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp each of salt and pepper
- 2 cups chicken stock
- 3/4 cup of milk
- 1 box Cheddar Bay Biscuit mix (11.36 oz)
- 1/2 cup shredded mild cheddar cheese
- 1 pouch garlic herb mix from biscuit box
- 1/4 cup melted butter
Instructions
- In a heated pan with olive oil, stir-fry shrimp and langostino for a couple of minutes with some salt and pepper, then take them out.
- Toss in the onions, celery, and bell peppers next, cooking until the onions look soft and clear (about 4-5 minutes).
- Lower the stove to medium-low. Pop the butter in and let it melt before stirring in the flour to coat the veggies.
- Pour in the chicken broth to loosen everything up and simmer gently.
- Stir in the cream, plus garlic, thyme, tarragon, salt, pepper, and paprika. Finally, mix in the shrimp, langostino, and crab carefully and take off the heat.
- Stir together the pouch seasoning and melted butter in a small bowl. Set the mixture aside.
- Put the biscuit mix in a bowl with the shredded cheese and milk. Stir with a fork until the mixture looks rough and clumpy, but don’t overdo it.
- Set your oven to 425°F.
- Put the seafood and veggie mix into a baking dish or split it among 6 ramekins. Drop spoonfuls of the biscuit dough on top.
- Pop everything on a tray and bake until the biscuits turn golden and are fully cooked—around 14-16 minutes.
- Right after you take the dish out of the oven, brush the biscuit tops with the herb butter. Serve while warm.
Notes
- Adjust the seasoning to taste.
- Serve fresh out of the oven for the best texture.
- Can be made in ramekins for individual servings.
