Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons Butter
- 3 tablespoons All-purpose flour
- 2 cups Whole milk
- 0.5 cups Heavy cream
- 1 cup Cheddar cheese, grated
- 0.5 cups Parmesan cheese, grated
- 1 cup Cooked shrimp, chopped
- 1 cup Cooked scallops, chopped
- 1 cup Cooked crab meat
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
- 0.125 teaspoon Nutmeg, freshly grated
Instructions
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the flour and whisk constantly for 1-2 minutes to form a roux. Do not let it brown.
Slowly whisk in the milk and heavy cream, ensuring there are no lumps. Continue whisking and cook until the mixture thickens, about 5 minutes.
Reduce heat to low and stir in the grated cheddar and Parmesan cheeses until fully melted and smooth.
Add the minced garlic, Dijon mustard, salt, ground black pepper, and nutmeg. Stir well to combine.
Gently fold in the cooked shrimp, scallops, and crab meat. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes to warm the seafood through.
Remove from heat and stir in the chopped fresh parsley.
Let the seafood mornay cool slightly before using it as a filling for savory crepes. Pair with a green salad for a complete meal.
