Melt 3 tablespoons butter in a skillet; sauté onion and celery until tender. Set aside. Heat milk in a saucepan over medium heat. Mix in flour and remaining butter until well blended. Gradually blend cheese into mixture; add salt and pepper. In a medium bowl, combine onion mixture with cheese sauce mixture. Toss in seafood; transfer to a greased 11"x7" baking pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 25 minutes, until seafood is opaque and surface is lightly golden. Serves 4.
Only using part of an onion? The remaining half will stay fresh for weeks when rubbed with butter or oil and stored in the refrigerator.
