For Laura's seafood Thermidor recipe, use crab or lobster or mix it up with some fish. I serve this in individual au gratin dishes. You can freeze the sauce before adding the topping.

Ingredients

  • 0.5 cups unsalted butter
  • 8 ounces fresh mushrooms , chopped
  • 1 bunch green onions , chopped
  • 4 ounces peeled and deveined medium shrimp , 30-40 per pound
  • 4 ounces walleye fillets , cut into pieces
  • 4 ounces cooked lobster meat , broken into chunks
  • 4 ounces cooked crabmeat
  • 0.5 cups dry white wine , such as Chenin Blanc
  • 2 tablespoons dry sherry
  • 1.5 cups dry bread crumbs , divided
  • 1 can condensed cream of shrimp soup , 10.5 ounce
  • 1 cup half-and-half
  • 4 ounces shredded Cheddar cheese
  • 0.5 cups freshly grated Parmesan cheese
  • 0.25 cups unsalted butter , cold, cut into 1/2-inch pieces

Instructions

  1. 1

    Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.

  2. 2

    Melt 1/2 cup butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add mushrooms and green onions; cook and stir until mushrooms softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in shrimp and walleye; cook and stir until shrimp begin to turn opaque, about 2 minutes. Add lobster and crab; cook until heated through, about 3 minutes.

  3. 3

    Stir in white wine and sherry; bring to a simmer and cook until shrimp and walleye are no longer translucent in centers, about 2 minutes. Stir in 1 cup bread crumbs, soup, half-and-half, and Cheddar cheese until cheese melted and mixture is bubbly. Transfer to a casserole dish; sprinkle evenly with remaining 1/2 cup bread crumbs and Parmesan cheese. Dot with cold butter.

  4. 4

    Cook under the preheated broiler until butter has melted and bread crumbs are golden brown.
