# Ingredients:

→ Seafood & Vegetable Filling

01 - 1 lb shrimp, peeled and deveined
02 - 12 oz langostino tails or lobster
03 - 8 oz jumbo lump crabmeat, cooked
04 - 1 cup onions, chopped
05 - ½ cup bell pepper, chopped
06 - ¼ cup celery, chopped
07 - 1 tsp salt, plus more to taste
08 - 1 tsp pepper, plus more to taste
09 - Olive oil, for cooking

→ Creamy Gravy

10 - 2 cups chicken broth
11 - 1 cup heavy cream
12 - 4 tbsp butter
13 - 5 tbsp flour
14 - 1 tbsp garlic, minced or paste
15 - 1 tsp thyme
16 - 1 tsp dried tarragon
17 - 1 tsp salt
18 - 1 tsp pepper
19 - ½ tsp smoked paprika

→ Cheddar Bay Biscuit Topping

20 - 1 box Red Lobster cheddar bay biscuit mix (11.36 oz)
21 - ¾ cup milk
22 - ½ cup mild cheddar cheese, shredded

→ Herb Butter Sauce

23 - ¼ cup butter, melted
24 - 1 pouch garlic herb seasoning (from biscuit mix box)

# Instructions:

01 - Heat olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Sear shrimp and langostino with salt and pepper for 2–3 minutes. Remove from pan. In the same pan, sauté onions, bell pepper, and celery until onions are translucent, about 4–5 minutes.
02 - Reduce heat to medium-low. Add butter, then stir in flour until it’s fully absorbed. Slowly add chicken broth and bring to a light simmer. Stir in heavy cream. Add garlic, thyme, tarragon, salt, pepper, and smoked paprika. Let simmer 2–3 minutes, then fold in the cooked seafood and crab. Remove from heat.
03 - In a small bowl, mix the melted butter with the garlic herb seasoning packet. Set aside.
04 - In a bowl, combine biscuit mix, cheddar cheese, and milk. Stir gently with a fork until a shaggy dough forms. Do not overmix.
05 - Preheat oven to 425°F. Divide the seafood filling into 6 ramekins or use one baking dish. Top each with scoops of biscuit dough. Place on a baking sheet and bake for 14–16 minutes until golden brown.
06 - Brush hot biscuits with the herb butter sauce as soon as they come out of the oven. Serve warm.

# Notes:

01 - Use ramekins for individual servings or a baking dish for family-style.
02 - Overmixing the biscuit dough can make it tough—just stir enough to combine.
03 - If you don’t have langostino, lobster or extra shrimp works fine.
