If you love shrimp and scallops, you'll love this seafood casserole. Easy to make!

This seafood casserole is full of shrimp and scallops so it’s a seafood lover’s delight. Perfect for Lent.

Attention Shrimp And Scallop Lovers

If you love shrimp and scallops, you are going to love this easy seafood casserole. This is another great recipe from my friend Maria from Maria’s Mixing Bowl!

While it may not be a weekly meal due to the cost of the ingredients, you’re sure to enjoy it as a treat when you can get a good price on the shrimp and/or scallops.

There are some ways to reduce the cost. For instance, you don’t really need the jumbo IQF (individually quick frozen) sea scallops. Most stores sell scallop “pieces” for a greatly reduced price. They are perfect for this casserole. You can also use the less expensive bay scallops.

I have found shrimp at ridiculously low prices in some of my local stores. For instance, I got a 2-pound bag of raw cleaned extra jumbo shrimp for $13.98. You can’t pass up that price. However, you don’t need jumbo shrimp in this dish. The smaller and less expensive smaller sizes will do and they taste the same.

Add Regular Fish Too

If you’re not averse to regular white fish, you may add chunks of any firm, white, non-oily fish into the mix.

I used some haddock in this, but halibut, turbot or perch would be good choices too. Avoid fish such as mackerel and salmon since they are quite oily and would spoil the delicate taste of this casserole.

One Or The Other

It’s worth mentioning that you don’t have to include all of the seafood components.

For instance, you can make this with just shrimp, shrimp and regular fish, just scallops or scallops and regular fish. The casserole will taste great and it will also help to keep the cost down.

Just an aside, but this happens to be an excellent dinner during Lent.

    We’re originally from the coast of New England, so my family & I love a good seafood dish. I like the haddock which was added, since it’s a nice firm & tasty white fish. I will serve this with wild rice and a spinach salad for my mom’s birthday dinner next week. Thanks, Judith 🙂

      That sounds great Angela. The recipe originated with a good friend who lives in Massachusetts and also has a place in Maine. You can’t get more New England than Maria!!!

    Lately, I have been caving almost any type of seafood. This recipe warms the cockles of my heart (pun intended). I will start collecting the ingredients. That is the wonderful part of this recipe. Being able to use frozen fish puts this recipe in everybody’s budget. At one time or another, most of us have one or more of these ingredients in our freezer.Thank you for the wonderful recipe! I am excited to put this together. B. Karr

      Shrimp has actually been pretty cheap in my area for a while. Wish I could say the same for scallops.

    Bay or sea scallops?

    • Judith Hanneman says

      Either, whichever you like.

    How is this served…over rice or as a stand-alone protein. Any accompanying side dish suggestions?

    • Judith Hanneman says

      It’s nice served over rice but even nicer as a standalone with a side of buttered herb rice–the package kind from Knorr is very good.

    • Judith Hanneman says

    Hi! Thank you so much for sharing this delicious recipe! I made it tonight and it is so incredibly good. What are your thoughts on using crab instead of shrimp and how would you go about doing that?
    Thanks!

    • Judith Hanneman says

      Crab should be wonderful!!

    Just made this tonight from Maria’s website. I’ll be honest, although I followed it to a T, I found it pretty boring. The sauce was indeed a broth, and we had to eat it like a soup.
