Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and gather your ingredients.
  2. Melt butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add diced onion and celery, sauté for about 5 minutes until translucent.
  3. Sprinkle flour into sautéed vegetables and stir for 1–2 minutes until slightly golden, forming a roux.
  4. Gradually whisk in seafood broth and heavy cream, stirring until thickened, about 3–5 minutes.
  5. Add garlic powder, Old Bay seasoning, salt, and pepper. Stir to distribute seasoning, taste, and adjust if necessary.
  6. Fold in cooked shrimp, crab meat, and frozen peas and carrots gently to combine without overmixing.
  7. Spoon the seafood filling into a prepared 9-inch pie dish evenly.
  8. Prepare the Cheddar Bay biscuits according to package instructions, adding shredded cheddar cheese.
  9. Dollop biscuit dough over the seafood filling, covering most but leaving some areas exposed.
  10. Bake for 30–40 minutes or until biscuits are golden brown and filling is bubbly.
  11. Let cool for 10–15 minutes before serving to allow the filling to set.
