  • Total Time: 45 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale

Gathering the ingredients is like assembling a little treasure chest of flavors. Here’s what you’ll need:

  • 1 pound of shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 1 pound of lobster meat, cooked and chopped
  • 2 tablespoons of olive oil
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 2 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 1 cup of frozen peas
  • 2 cups of diced carrots
  • 1 teaspoon of salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon of thyme
  • 1/4 cup of all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups of seafood stock
  • 1 cup of heavy cream
  • 2 cups of biscuit mix
  • 1/2 cup of milk
  • 1/4 cup of melted butter

Feel free to substitute the seafood stock with chicken stock if that’s what you have on hand. Remember, cooking is about using what’s available and making it work—much like my mom did with her magical can of tomatoes.

Instructions

Time to roll up those sleeves and dive into the heart of this dish. Here’s how you can bring this delicious pot pie to life:

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). This ensures everything cooks evenly and to perfection.
  2. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and garlic, sautéing until they’re fragrant and translucent, about 5 minutes.
  3. Stir in the diced carrots and peas, cooking for another 3 minutes until they start to soften.
  4. Add the shrimp and cook until they’re pink and opaque, about 4 minutes. Stir in the lobster, salt, pepper, and thyme.
  5. Sprinkle the flour over the mixture, stirring constantly for 2 minutes to cook out the raw taste.
  6. Gradually pour in the seafood stock and heavy cream, stirring to combine. Simmer until the mixture thickens, about 5 minutes.
  7. Pour the seafood filling into a deep ovenproof dish, spreading it evenly.
  8. In a separate bowl, mix the biscuit mix with milk and melted butter until a dough forms.
  9. Spoon the biscuit dough over the seafood mixture, covering as much surface as possible.
  10. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the biscuit topping is golden brown and cooked through. Let it cool for a few minutes before serving.

Remember, cooking is about feeling, not just following. I often find myself adjusting spices or ingredients based on what I have, and it’s always an adventure.
