Report
These Seafood Pot Pies are the ultimate comfort food with a touch of elegance! Perfect for a chilly night when you're craving a little something special! Tender shrimp, flaky fish, and sweet scallops coated in a savory, creamy sauce tucked under a golden, flaky pastry lid. It's a comforting and sophisticated meal. Serve them hot and bubbly straight from the oven with a crisp side salad, a glass of wine, and a little squeeze of lemon for a show-stopping dinner that's actually low-stress.

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 390ºF/200ºC.
- Heat the oil in a large frying pan and add the chopped onion and celery.1 tbsp olive oil1 onion1 rib celery
- Sauté the veg over low heat for 10 minutes until softened. Add the butter and let it melt into the veg.1 tbsp butter
- Add the flour to the pan and stir well, then cook for a minute.⅓ cup / 45 g AP flour
- Combine the broth/stock and cream cheese, then slowly pour it over the vegetable mixture, stirring continuously.1¼ cup / 300 ml broth½ cup / 125 g cream cheese
- Bring the sauce to a simmer and cook for 7-8 minutes until very thick.
- Remove the pan from the heat and add the lemon juice, herbs, and seasonings. Stir to combine. (see note 6 if you want to make these in advance)½ tbsp lemon juice½ tbsp fresh parsley½ tsp dried dill weed½ tsp salt½ tsp old bay
- Add the seafood and stir to coat it in the sauce.9 oz / 250 g raw shrimp9 oz / 250 g raw scallops11 oz / 300 g white fish
- Use the top of one of your ramekins to cut out 4 disks from the pastry sheet. (see note 7)1 sheet puff pastry
- Spoon the seafood mixture into the 4 ramekins and top each with a pastry disk.
- Use a sharp knife to pierce the top of each pie, and then use a pastry brush to glaze the top of each pie with a little bit of milk or egg.1 tbsp milk/egg wash
- Bake the pies for 20-25 minutes until golden and puffed up.
Notes
- Fish or shrimp broth/stock is great here. But vegetable or chicken broth will work well, too.
- You can use any shrimp that you have available. I would avoid very small ones as they may overcook. I go for 31/35 count.
- If you have large sea scallops, cut them in half or quarters.
- Any firmish, flaky white fish is good - Cod, Pollack, Haddock, Tilapia, Halibut, Hake, or Snapper.
- You can find ready-rolled frozen puff pastry sheets in the grocery store's freezer section. If you can buy an all-butter puff, you'll find it has a much better flavor. If you can't find puff pastry, a rolled sheet of pie crust will also work.
- If you are making these in advance, allow the sauce mixture to cool before adding the fish.
- I use 130z/380ml ramekins.
