  4. Gradually add seafood broth and heavy cream to the roux, whisking continuously until it thickens, about 3-5 minutes.

  6. Fold in the cooked shrimp, crab meat, and frozen peas and carrots.
  7. Pour the seafood filling into a 9-inch pie dish, spreading evenly.
  8. Combine shredded cheddar cheese with refrigerated Cheddar Bay biscuits according to package instructions.
  9. Dollop the biscuit mixture over the seafood filling, leaving some gaps for texture.
