Shrimp & Cheese Biscuits
Ingredients:
4 T. olive oil
4 T. butter
16 large shrimp, peeled and chopped
2 T. Old Bay Seasoning
2 1/2 cups Bisquick
1 cup milk
1 cup Cheddar cheese, shredded
Pinch of garlic powder
Pinch of ground black pepper
2 tsp. fresh parsley, chopped
Directions:
Heat the oven to 350°F.
In a large skillet, combine the olive oil and butter and bring to high heat
Toss the shrimp in a bowl with the blackened seasoning until well coated
When the oil is hot, fry the shrimp quickly (about 2 minutes per side), turning once
Remove the shrimp with a spatula and set the oil aside to cool for later use
After allowing the shrimp to cool a bit, chop into fairly small pieces
Heat the oven to 350°F.
In a bowl, combine the Bisquick, milk, cheddar, and shrimp and mix until a smooth dough forms.
Drop the dough by the spoonful (about 2 tbl. each) onto an ungreased cookie sheet
Bake for about 10 to 12 minutes
Pour the reserved oil from frying the shrimp into a small bowl and mix in the garlic powder, black pepper, cayenne pepper, and parsley.
Brush the tops of the hot biscuits with the oil before serving
