I think this is too simple and I don't know what the special equipment brings, but it gives me good starting point. Some commenters say it has a roux and I can see that, brandy is mentioned though I've always found brandy to be very tricky (too alcoholic) to get correctly.

Wino:
Well, a steam kettle is basically a high-heat double-boiler, and the news articles talk about slamming them out in a couple minutes apiece. Seems like you could simulate that with an instant pot somehow, but not sure.
What throws me for a loop is that it's called "seafood pan roast", but every recipe I see online has a handful of shrimp and that's it.

YW.
I'm still working on finding out what the original Cajun/Creole name for this was.

So, I'm pretty sure that Pan Roast is old NOLA Shrimp Bisque, simplified with a few jarred or prepped ingredients.
Most of the recipes you'll find online for Shrimp Bisque are for a full-blown, hearty soup. But Tom Fitzmorris has an older recipe where it's more of an appetizer, and the only vegetable to go in is pureed bell pepper (in shrimp stock). If you take his recipe, swap tomato sauce of some kind for the pureed pepper, and cook it in a steam kettle, you pretty much have "Seafood Pan Roast".

WHAT A WONDERFUL DISCOVERY! Chowders/bisques, etc. can be stupendous. One May my wife and I pursued chowders in many coastal towns from San Francisco to Portland a few years back - a great feast - for the most part (yes, they can be a BIG disappointment). And, if you visit Victoria, British Columbia please have a slightly delayed lunch at Red Fish, Blue Fish - I have NEVER had better and there is a wide variety. You should delay your lunch to avoid the crowds and wait times. If you go at 1:30 and on you can just walk in. They have excellent beers to match. It is self help - find a table, read a chalked board, and place your order at the counter - they do serve  . A little sleuthing will yield some of his recipes. P.S. The lobster bisque at The French Laundry is a whole different creation (seemingly from another planet), but, as it is unattainable by itself...

You are correct about this being a popular dish in Las Vegas. A friend of mine who lives there orders this when he visits the Oyster Bar at the Orleans. I have never tried it because I am not a seafood person.

Wino, Todd,
I imagine that Vegas oyster houses stopped calling it "Shrimp Bisque" because customers expected "Bisque" to mean "lobster" and were confused, and they got tired of explaining.
In fact, the menu description that Todd snapshots sounds exactly like "shrimp & crab bisque" from an old NOLA cookbook.
