Ingredients

Scale

2 tbsp butter
1 onion, diced
2 celery stalks, diced
2 carrots, diced
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
2 cups seafood or chicken broth
1 cup whole milk or half-and-half
1 lb mixed seafood (shrimp, scallops, firm white fish)
1 cup frozen peas
Salt, pepper, and Old Bay seasoning to taste
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tbsp baking powder
2 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp salt
1/2 cup cold butter, cubed
1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
1 cup buttermilk
2 tbsp melted butter
1/2 tsp garlic powder + 1 tbsp fresh parsley (for brushing)

Instructions

Preheat oven to 400°F. Make filling: Melt butter in large oven-safe skillet. Sauté onion, celery, and carrots until soft. Sprinkle flour over veggies and cook 1 minute, stirring. Gradually whisk in broth and milk until smooth. Simmer until thickened. Stir in seafood and peas. Season with salt, pepper, and Old Bay. Remove from heat
Make biscuit topping: In bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, garlic powder, and salt. Cut in cold butter until crumbly. Stir in cheddar cheese. Gently mix in buttermilk until just combined
Drop large spoonfuls of biscuit dough over hot seafood filling. Brush tops with melted butter mixed with garlic powder and parsley. Bake 20-25 minutes until biscuits are golden and filling is bubbly

Notes

Use cold butter for flaky biscuits. Do not overmix biscuit dough. Let pot pie rest 5-10 minutes after baking for easier serving. Store leftovers in refrigerator up to 2 days. Reheat in oven for best results.
