Ingredients
  

Seafood

  • 1 pound Langostino Tails Thaw properly if using frozen.
  • 1 cup Jumbo Lump Crabmeat Use fresh crab for the best flavor.

Vegetables

  • 1 medium Onions Sauté until softened for optimal flavor.
  • 1 cup Bell Pepper Cut into small pieces to blend well in the filling.
  • 1 cup Celery Chop finely for even cooking.

Seasoning and Broth

  • 1 teaspoon Salt Adjust to taste.
  • 1 teaspoon Pepper Freshly cracked pepper offers a superior flavor.
  • 2 cups Chicken Broth Use vegetable broth for a vegetarian option.
  • 1 cup Heavy Cream Can substitute with half-and-half to lighten.
  • 4 tablespoons Butter Be mindful of browning, use low heat when melting.
  • ¼ cup Flour Whisk well to avoid lumps.
  • 3 cloves Garlic Sauté lightly to release fragrance.
  • 1 teaspoon Thyme Adjust amounts based on preference.

Biscuit Topping

Instructions
 

Cooking Steps

  • In a large skillet, heat a tablespoon of oil over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp and langostino tails, cooking until they turn opaque, about 2-3 minutes. Once cooked, remove them from the skillet and set aside.
  • In the same skillet, add a splash of oil and sauté chopped onions, bell peppers, and finely chopped celery for approximately 5 minutes until softened.
  • Create a roux by melting butter in the skillet and whisking in flour. Gradually add chicken broth and heavy cream, stirring until thickened, about 5-7 minutes. Season with minced garlic, thyme, tarragon, salt, pepper, and smoked paprika.
  • Gently fold in the seared seafood into the gravy. Let it simmer for an additional 2-3 minutes.
  • In a separate bowl, combine the Cheddar Bay Biscuit mix, cold milk, and shredded mild cheddar cheese until just mixed.
  • Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Pour the seafood filling into a greased baking dish and dollop spoonfuls of biscuit dough on top. Bake for 14-16 minutes until golden brown.
  • Melt butter in a small pan, stir in garlic herb seasoning, and brush this over the warm biscuits before serving.

Notes

Perfectly tender seafood: Cook shrimp and langostino just until opaque; avoid overcooking. Customize the filling to your taste with different vegetables or seafood.
