Shrimp Crab Biscuit Melts – Yummy Seafood Dinner Recipes

⏱️ Prep Time: 15 mins | 🔥 Cook Time: 20 mins | ⏳ Total Time: 35 mins
🍽️ Servings: 8 biscuits | ⭐ Rating: 4.8 / 5 (16 reviews)

Ingredients

• 1 lb shrimp, peeled and deveined
• 1 cup lump crab meat
• 1 cup shredded cheddar
• ½ cup cream cheese, softened
• ¼ cup mayonnaise
• 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
• 1 teaspoon Old Bay seasoning
• ½ teaspoon garlic powder
• ¼ teaspoon black pepper
• 1 can (8-count) refrigerated biscuit dough
• 2 tablespoons butter, melted
• Fresh parsley, finely chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

1. Heat the oven
   Set your oven to 375°F (190°C) and allow it to fully preheat while you prepare the filling.
2. Mix the seafood filling
   In a large mixing bowl, combine the shrimp and crab meat. Add the shredded cheddar, cream cheese, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, Old Bay seasoning, garlic powder, and black pepper. Stir everything together until evenly blended and creamy.
3. Separate the dough
   Open the biscuit package and gently pull apart the individual biscuits.
4. Shape the biscuits
   Lightly flour your work surface. Press each biscuit into a flat circle, about ¼-inch thick, creating enough space for the filling.
5. Add the filling
   Spoon a hearty portion of the seafood mixture into the center of each flattened biscuit.
6. Close and seal
   Fold the dough over the filling to form a half-circle. Firmly press and pinch the edges together to prevent any filling from leaking out during baking.
7. Prepare for baking
   Arrange the stuffed biscuits on a parchment-lined baking sheet, leaving a little space between each one.
8. Butter the tops
   Brush the tops generously with melted butter to help them bake up golden and glossy.
9. Bake until golden
   Transfer the baking sheet to the oven and bake for 15–20 minutes, or until the biscuits are puffed and beautifully golden brown.
10. Finish and serve
    Remove from the oven and allow them to cool slightly. Sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
