This is one of those OMG I can't believe I cooked up this delicious dinner kind of moments.
The Red Lobster Biscuits were a fantastic topping for this filling, but feel free to use whatever biscuits you prefer. Feel like making your own biscuits? More power to ya!

1 lb shrimp
4 tbsp butter

2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tbsp Old Bay seasoning
2 tbsp flour

1 package Red Lobster biscuit mix
1/2 cup shredded cheddar
3/4 cup water
1/3 cup of butter
2. Preheat oven to 425. Stir together biscuit mix, cheddar, and water. Pour shrimp and vegetables into a 13x9 inch casserole dish. Top with biscuit mix. Cook 14-16 minutes, until biscuits have browned slightly. Melt butter and stir in seasoning packet. Brush butter over biscuits.
Even Bailey knows something incredible is going to come out of this oven!
The box calls for much more butter than necessary. At least that was my opinion, I saved the remaining butter to use for garlic bread another night.
Seriously, it is almost a crime to not bake this up immediately.
So get on it!
