Ingredients

  • 1 pre-made pie crust (9-inch)
  • 1 pound shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 small onion, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 bell pepper, diced (red or green)
  • 1 cup corn kernels (fresh or frozen)
  • 1 teaspoon Old Bay seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add onion and garlic, and cook for 3–4 minutes until softened.
  3. Add bell pepper and corn; cook for 2–3 minutes more.
  4. Stir in shrimp, Old Bay seasoning, paprika, salt, and pepper. Cook until shrimp are pink and opaque, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
  5. In a bowl, whisk eggs and heavy cream. Stir in shredded cheddar cheese.
  6. Combine the cooled shrimp mixture with the egg and cheese mixture.
  7. Pour the filling into the pie crust and spread evenly.
  8. Bake for 30–35 minutes or until filling is set and golden on top.
  9. Let cool for 10 minutes before garnishing with fresh parsley and serving.

Notes

  • Use half-and-half instead of heavy cream for a lighter texture.
  • Let shrimp mixture cool before combining with eggs to avoid curdling.
  • Place pie on lower oven rack to prevent soggy crust.
  • Monterey Jack cheese can be used in place of cheddar.
  • Add cayenne for a touch of heat or lemon juice for brightness.
