CHARLESTON CRAB POT PIE

• In a large skillet melt the 3 tablespoons butter over medium heat. Cook and stir leeks in hot butter for 2 to 3 minutes or until tender. Add the flour to the skillet; cook and stir about 1 minute. Stir in the milk; cook and stir until mixture begins to boil. Stir in the crabmeat, peas, dry sherry (if desired), Cajun seasoning, and, if desired, the ground red pepper. Spoon the crab mixture into a 2-quart square baking dish.
• In a small bowl stir together the 2 tablespoons melted butter and, if desired, the Dijon-style mustard. Brush one sheet of phyllo dough with butter mixture; fold in half crosswise. Repeat with other sheet. Stack the two sheets. Using a sharp knife, trim phyllo to about a 9-inch square. Place phyllo stack over crab mixture; tuck edges under. Brush any remaining butter mixture over top. Bake in a 375 degree F oven for 25 to 30 minutes or until heated through. Serve immediately.

BEST SEAFOOD POT PIE

Steps:

• Shrimp -- Prepare your shrimp, scallops and vegetables.
• Vegetable Base -- In a large pot, melt the butter on medium heat. Add the celery, onion, mushrooms, and carrots and cook until soft. Add the sherry to deglaze the pan, then the creole seasoning, salt and pepper, flour to make a light roux and then add the half and half and the chicken broth. Bring back to a medium heat to lighten thicken. Add the peas, shrimp, scallops, and fresh parsley and stir to combine. The last minute add the crab.
• Casserole -- Spray the casserole dish or individual baking dishes (soup bowls or small ramikens with Pam or brush with olive oil) and spoon the pot pie mixture inches Top with a little of the grated cheese.
• Topping -- Take the southern biscuits cut in half, top and bottom half (just thinner so they cook quicker) (Pillsbury or any name brand or you can easily make your own if you want.). Just top the individual dishes or you can top the whole casserole dish. The biscuits can be cut to fit the size of the casserole dish. Brush with some butter to make them crusty brown.
• Bake -- Heat the oven to 350 degrees and bake until the biscuits are golden brown and the filling is bubbly. About 20-30 minutes depending on your oven. Cook on the middle shelf.
