Best Shrimp On Biscuits Recipes

CHARLESTON SHRIMP 'N' GRAVY

Steps:

• Place the bacon in a large skillet over medium heat. Fry until browned, then remove to paper towels to drain. Add the butter to the bacon grease. When the butter begins to sizzle, sprinkle 3 tablespoons of flour over it. Reduce the heat to medium-low, and cook for about 12 minutes, stirring frequently, until dark brown. Don't let it scorch - if it starts to, just reduce the heat.
• When the roux reaches dark brown, increase the heat to medium-high, and add the onions and bell pepper. Cook and stir for a couple of minutes, just until softened. Meanwhile, place the shrimp in a bowl, and toss with seasoned salt, pepper, garlic powder, and remaining flour. Pour into the pan, and stir constantly for 1 minute. Whisk in the chicken stock, and reduce the heat to low. Cook for just a few minutes to thicken the broth. Don't cook much longer, or the shrimp will become tough. Sprinkle the chopped green onion over it, and remove from the heat. Serve over fresh hot grits, rice or biscuits. Crumble the bacon slices on top.

CREAMY SHRIMP AND CRAB BISQUE

Steps:

• In a large saucepan, melt butter over a low heat. Stir in flour, salt, white pepper, bouillon granules, and onion. Blend 3/4 cup half-and-half cream into the mixture. Mix in shrimp and crab meat. Turn the temperature to medium heat and continue stirring until the mixture thickens.
• Blend the remaining half-and-half cream and wine into the mixture. Serve and enjoy!

SHRIMP PUFFS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Coat a miniature-muffin tin with cooking spray.
• Split each biscuit in half and place each half in a muffin cup, pressing it into the bottom and up the sides.
• In a medium-size bowl, mix the cheese, scallion, mayonnaise, shrimp and dill. Place 1 tablespoon of the shrimp mixture on top of each biscuit. Bake for 20 minutes, or until the puffs are golden and bubbling.

GIANT BISCUITS WITH SHRIMP GRAVY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees. In a food processor combine the flour, baking powder, salt, sugar and process until well combined. Add the butter and process for 15 seconds or until it is broken down into oatmeal sized pieces. Add the milk and process just until the dough is combined.
• Transfer the dough to a board and pat it to 1 inch thick. Stamp out 4 or 6 large rounds, more or less of equal size, and set them on a baking sheet. Bake for 15 minutes. Lower the heat to 375 degrees and bake for another 15 minutes or until cooked through.
• Remove from oven and split open. Set bottom half on a dinner plate, spoon shrimp sauce over the bottom biscuit half and top with top biscuit half.

SHRIMP PUFFS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
• Spray a mini muffin tin with non-stick cooking spray. Cut each biscuit in half and then place each half into a muffin cup, pressing the biscuit up the sides of the cup.
• Add the mayonnaise, cheese, dill, scallion and shrimp to a bowl. Season with salt and pepper to taste and stir. Divide the filling between the biscuits.
• Bake for 20 minutes until the biscuits are golden brown and puffy. Garnish with more fresh dill if desired.

CAJUN SHRIMP AND SAUSAGE GRAVY OVER BISCUITS

Steps:

• Sausage -- In a large saute pan cook the diced andouille on medium heat until cooked through. Don't cook it at too high of a temperature. You want to slowly saute it. Once it is done, remove to a plate lined with a paper towel to drain.
• Sauce -- In the same pan, pour out the drippings from the andouille (no need to clean the pan out, the flavor is fine, you just don't want all the oil) and add the fresh olive oil and bring to medium high heat. Add in the onion, celery, red pepper and garlic and saute 3-4 minutes.
• Deglaze -- Originally I used chicken broth because that is all I had. Now, I like to deglaze with white wine just to get all the bits up off the pan. Add the wine and scrape up the bits from the pan and cook just a minute, then remove from the heat and slowly add in the cream, hot sauce (to taste) and the cajun seasoning and return to the heat on medium low cook until it reduces about 20-30 minutes. The cream will naturally thicken on it's own.
• Shrimp and Sausage -- After the sauce has thickened, add the sausage back in as well as the shrimp and cook on medium heat until the shrimp begin to curl and turn pink. Add salt and pepper if needed according to your taste.
• Biscuits -- Now I just used a canned biscuit, so I baked them according to directions, but if you want to make your own, by all means please do.
• Serving -- Right before serving, add in the scallions and serve this decadent sauce over sliced biscuits.
• Cook up some of your favorite eggs and serve with some Bloody Mary's for a perfect brunch. This also would make a great lunch or dinner.
