  • 8 oz langostino tails or lobster
  • 8 oz jumbo lump crabmeat, cooked
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 1 bell pepper, chopped
  • 2 celery stalks, chopped
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Creamy Gravy:
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 2 tbsp flour
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp thyme
  • 1/2 tsp tarragon
  • 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
  • Cheddar Bay Biscuit Topping:
  • 1 box Red Lobster Cheddar Bay Biscuit mix
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 cup shredded mild cheddar cheese
  • Herb Butter Sauce:
  • 2 tbsp butter, melted
  • Garlic herb seasoning (from biscuit mix packet)

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a skillet. Cook shrimp and langostino with salt and pepper for 2–3 minutes until just pink. Remove and set aside.
  2. In the same pan, sauté onion, bell pepper, and celery for 4–5 minutes until softened.
  3. Add butter, then stir in flour to form a roux. Gradually whisk in chicken broth, then heavy cream until smooth.
  4. Season with garlic, thyme, tarragon, paprika, salt, and pepper. Simmer 2–3 minutes until slightly thickened.
  5. Fold in cooked seafood and crab. Remove from heat.
  6. In a small bowl, mix melted butter with garlic herb seasoning for brushing later.
  7. Prepare biscuit dough by mixing biscuit mix, cheddar cheese, and milk until combined (do not overmix).
  8. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Spoon seafood mixture into ramekins or a baking dish. Top with scoops of biscuit dough.
  9. Bake 14–16 minutes until biscuits are golden and filling is bubbling.
  10. Brush biscuits with herb butter immediately before serving.

Notes

  • Swap in scallops, lobster, or white fish if desired.
  • Use smoked gouda instead of cheddar for deeper flavor.
  • If out of biscuit mix, make homemade cheddar biscuits with flour, baking powder, butter, and milk.
  • Add peas or spinach for more vegetables.
