Ingredients

• 500 grams raw shrimp, peeled and deveined
• 3 tablespoons butter
• 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 360 milliliters milk
• 240 milliliters chicken broth
• 1 medium onion, finely chopped
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 200 grams frozen mixed vegetables (peas, carrots, and corn blend)
• 0.5 teaspoons paprika
• 0.5 teaspoons dried thyme
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
• 2 pieces pre-made pie crusts
• 1 large egg, beaten

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).

Step 2

In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, and sauté until softened, about 5 minutes.

Step 3

Sprinkle the flour over the onions and garlic, and stir continuously for 1-2 minutes to form a roux.

Step 4

Gradually whisk in the milk and chicken broth, ensuring there are no lumps. Continue cooking, stirring frequently, until the mixture thickens into a creamy sauce, about 5-7 minutes.

Step 5

Add the shrimp to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes until they just begin to turn pink.

Step 6

Stir in the frozen mixed vegetables, paprika, thyme, salt, and black pepper. Remove the skillet from heat and let the filling cool slightly.

Step 7

Place one of the pre-made pie crusts into a 9-inch pie dish. Pour the shrimp and vegetable filling into the crust, spreading it evenly.

Step 8

Cover the pie with the second pie crust. Trim any excess dough, then seal and crimp the edges. Cut a few small slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape.

Step 9

Brush the beaten egg over the top of the crust for a golden finish.

Step 10

Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.

Step 11

Let the pie rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing. Serve warm and enjoy!
