Ingredients
  

Seafood and Filling
  • 2 cups mixed seafood (shrimp, scallops, crab)
  • 1 cup frozen peas and carrots use frozen for convenience
  • 1 small onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced adds flavor
  • ¾ cup heavy cream for a rich filling
  • 2 cups vegetable broth
  • 3 tablespoons flour to thicken the filling
  • 1 cup shredded cheese cheddar or your favorite
  • 1 store-bought pie crust homemade if desired
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh herbs (parsley or dill) for flavor and garnish

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a large skillet over medium heat, add a drizzle of olive oil. Toss in the diced onion and cook until translucent.
  3. Add the minced garlic and let it cook for about 1 minute.
  4. Add the mixed seafood and frozen peas and carrots to the skillet. Stir and let cook for about 5 minutes.
  5. Sprinkle the flour over the mixture, stirring continuously. Slowly pour in the vegetable broth and heavy cream, stirring until combined.
  6. Bring to a gentle simmer and let it thicken for about 5-7 minutes. Season with salt, pepper, and herbs.
  7. Stir in the shredded cheese until it melts.
  8. Pour the mixture into a pie dish. Cover with the pie crust, seal the edges, and cut slits on top for steam.
  9. Bake for about 25-30 minutes or until the crust is golden brown.
  10. Allow to cool for about 10 minutes before slicing.

Notes

For a twist, swap in your favorite seafood or add chorizo. Leftovers can be reheated in the oven, and if you’re not a fan of pie crust, you can use puff pastry.
