Ingredients

2 tbsp unsalted butter, divided
1 lb mixed seafood (shrimp, scallops, cod), thawed and patted dry
1 medium yellow onion, finely diced
1 stalk celery, finely diced
3 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
2 cups chicken or seafood broth
1/2 cup dry white wine (optional)
1 cup whole milk or half-and-half
1 tsp Old Bay seasoning
1/2 tsp dried dill
1/4 tsp dried parsley
Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
1 (11.3 oz) box Cheddar Bay Biscuit mix (plus ingredients called for on package: water, shredded cheddar cheese, cold butter)
2 tbsp unsalted butter, melted (for glaze)

Instructions

1. Prep Seafood & Veggies: Pat seafood dry. In a large, oven-safe skillet, melt 1 tbsp butter over medium-high heat. Sear shrimp and scallops 1-2 mins per side; remove. Sear cod 2-3 mins; remove. Set all seafood aside.
2. Build the Roux: Reduce heat to medium. Add 1 tbsp butter to skillet. Sauté onion and celery 5-7 mins until soft. Add garlic, cook 1 min. Stir in flour, cook 1-2 mins, stirring constantly, to form a roux.
3. Simmer Filling: Gradually whisk in broth and wine (if using). Bring to a simmer, stirring until thickened. Whisk in milk, Old Bay, dill, parsley, salt, and pepper. Simmer gently 5 mins until sauce coats a spoon.
4. Assemble Pot Pie: Gently fold cooked seafood into the sauce. Pour filling into a 9×13 inch baking dish (or back into Dutch oven). Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
5. Bake Biscuits: Prepare biscuit mix according to package directions, adding shredded cheddar. Drop spoonfuls of dough evenly over the hot filling. Bake 20-25 mins until biscuits are golden brown and filling is bubbly.
6. Glaze & Serve: While baking, melt 2 tbsp butter and stir in biscuit seasoning packet. Immediately after removing pot pie from oven, brush glaze generously over hot biscuits. Let rest 5-10 mins before serving.
