Notes

Let it cool before slicing for clean pieces. You can use other seafood like shrimp or smoked salmon. For a crispy crust, blind bake the pie crust for 10 minutes before adding the filling. Pair with a fresh green salad and lemon vinaigrette for a complete meal. Leftovers can be stored in the fridge for up to 3 days or frozen for 2 months.
