Description
This Florida Shrimp Pie Creamy combines succulent shrimp with rich cream cheese filling in a golden flaky crust. A perfect Southern coastal dish that’s elegant yet simple to make.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 crust from Pillsbury™ Deep Dish Pie Crusts package (12 oz, contains 2 crusts)
- ½ cup chive-and-onion cream cheese spread (from 8-oz container)
- 4 large eggs
- 12 oz frozen cooked shrimp (thawed, drained, deveined, peeled, tails removed, coarsely chopped)
- ½ cup shredded pepper Jack cheese (2 oz)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Remove one pie crust from freezer and let it thaw for 10 minutes.
- Unroll the pie crust and gently press it into a 9-inch pie pan. Crimp edges decoratively if desired.
- In a large bowl, whisk together eggs and cream cheese spread until smooth and well combined.
- Pat shrimp completely dry with paper towels. Chop into bite-sized pieces if not already done.
- Fold chopped shrimp and pepper Jack cheese into the egg mixture until evenly distributed.
- Pour filling into prepared pie crust, spreading evenly with a spatula.
- Bake for 35-40 minutes until center is set and top is golden brown.
- Cool for 10 minutes before slicing. Serve warm or at room temperature.
Notes
- Thoroughly drain and pat dry your shrimp to prevent a watery filling
- Let the cream cheese come to room temperature for easier mixing
- Pre-bake the crust for 5 minutes if you prefer an extra-crispy bottom
- Cover pie edges with foil if they brown too quickly during baking
- Store leftovers covered in refrigerator for up to 3 days
