Ingredients
12 medium button or cremini mushrooms, cleaned with stems removed
Olive oil spray
8 ounces cream cheese, softened (full fat recommended)
1/2 cup fresh bread crumbs or panko breadcrumbs
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1/2 cup finely chopped green onions
1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
2–3 tablespoons fresh chopped Italian parsley
1 cup cooked, shelled crab meat, finely chopped
Instructions
1-Getting started: Getting started with crab stuffed mushrooms is straightforward and fun, even if you’re new to cooking. First, preheat your oven to 375ยฐF to ensure even baking. Clean the mushrooms gently with a damp cloth to remove any dirt, and remove the stems for the caps to hold the filling.
2-Next: Next, lightly spray the mushroom caps with olive oil and place them cap side down on a baking sheet. In a bowl, combine 8 ounces of softened cream cheese, 1/2 cup fresh bread crumbs or panko breadcrumbs, 2 cloves minced garlic, 1/2 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce, 1/2 cup finely chopped green onions, 1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese, 2-3 tablespoons fresh chopped Italian parsley, and 1 cup finely chopped cooked crab meat.
3-Season the mixture: Season the mixture with salt and pepper to taste, then spoon about 1.5 tablespoons into each mushroom cap. Bake for 20 minutes, and for the last minute, use the broiler to lightly brown the tops while keeping a close eye to avoid burning. This method results in tender, flavorful mushrooms that pair well with drinks from our blog, like a refreshing blueberry lemonade for a citrusy twist.
