  • 1
    Heat oven to 400°F. Prepare pie crust as directed on package for one-crust filled pie using 9-inch pie pan . Bake at 400°F. for 10 to 12 minutes or until light golden brown. Remove pie crust from oven; immediately press bubbles down with back of spoon. Reduce oven temperature to 350°F.

    Bake at 350°F. for 50 to 55 minutes or until knife inserted in center comes out clean. If necessary, cover edge of crust with strips of foil after 25 to 30 minutes of baking to prevent excessive browning. Let stand 10 minutes before serving.

  • Mozzarella or Monterey Jack cheese can be used in place of the Swiss Cheese.
  • To mend cracks in the pie crust, wet fingers with cold water and press edges together. Repairing cracks before baking will reduce the chance of the crust cracking again while baking.
  • When using thawed frozen shrimp, pat them dry with paper towel.
