Can I use canned seafood?

Yes—just drain it well before adding. Fresh or frozen will give the best texture, though.

How do I store leftovers?

Cover and refrigerate for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven at 350°F for best results.

Absolutely. Prepare the filling earlier in the day, then add the biscuit topping just before baking.

Instructions

Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
In a large pot over medium heat, cook shrimp, crab, and fish for 3–4 minutes until shrimp turn pink. Remove and set aside.
In the same pot, add broth, heavy cream, garlic powder, onion powder, thyme, salt, and pepper. Stir and bring to a gentle simmer.
Add frozen mixed vegetables and cooked seafood to the pot. Simmer for 5 minutes until heated through.
Continue stirring for 5 minutes until sauce thickens slightly. Remove from heat.
In a bowl, combine Cheddar Bay Biscuit mix with milk. Stir gently until just combined (do not overmix).
Pour seafood mixture into a large baking dish. Drop spoonfuls of biscuit dough over the top.
Drizzle melted butter over the biscuit topping.
Bake for 25–30 minutes, until biscuits are golden brown.
Let cool for 5–10 minutes before serving.

Notes

For extra cheesy biscuits, add ½ cup shredded cheddar to the dough.
Use fresh seafood for the best flavor, but thawed frozen works well too.
Add a pinch of Old Bay seasoning for extra coastal flavor.
