5 tablespoons flour
1/2 cup lobster meat, cooked and cut into bite-sized pieces (I used imitation)
1/4 cup dry sherry

pastry dough, for a 10-inch double-crust pie

Steps:

Preheat oven to 375F 10 minutes before the pie is ready to go inches.

Cook the scallops, oysters and fish in the chicken stock for 5 minutes or until the fish flakes easily when pierced with a fork.
Remove seafood and strain the stock.
Reserve the stock.
Melt butter in a small skillet over medium heat and sauté the onions and celery.
Stir in the flour; add the stock and cook, stirring constantly, until thickened.

Season with salt and pepper; cool.
Line a 1-quart casserole, deep-dish pie plate, or four individual 5-inch casseroles with the pastry.
