Categories     appetizer

Time 30m

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 ounces jumbo lump crabmeat
1/4 cup panko breadcrumbs
3 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
Zest and juice of 1 lemon, plus lemon wedges, for serving
1 clove garlic, finely grated
3 tablespoons steak sauce
Kosher salt
12 jumbo shrimp (U10s), shelled and deveined
6 strips bacon, cut in half crosswise

Steps:

  • Position an oven rack in the top of the oven and preheat the broiler to high.
  • Add the crab, breadcrumbs, mayonnaise, parsley, lemon zest and juice, garlic, 2 tablespoons of the steak sauce and 1/2 teaspoon salt to a large bowl and stir until well combined.
  • Cut a deep slit down the ridged back of each shrimp and open it up like a book. Put the shrimp on a baking sheet and press the tails down firmly so they lay flat. Top evenly with the crab mixture, then lay a piece of bacon across the crab mixture on each shrimp, tucking the ends under the shrimp and making sure they do not overlap.
  • Broil until the bacon starts to crisp, about 10 minutes. Remove from the oven, brush with the remaining 1 tablespoon steak sauce and continue to broil until the bacon is dark golden and slightly charred in a few spots, about 2 minutes more depending on your broiler. Serve with lemon wedges.

Categories     appetizer

Time 1h30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 30

1 pound lump crabmeat, picked clean
1/2 butter crackers, crushed (recommended: Ritz)
3 scallions, tops and whites finely chopped
1/2 red bell pepper, finely chopped
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1 egg, beaten
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon dry mustard
1/2 lemon, juiced
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon table salt
Pinch cayenne pepper
16 large shrimp, peeled
16 slices bacon
2 lightly packed cups fresh basil
1 cup walnuts
1 cup freshly grated Parmesan
1 tablespoon minced fresh garlic
1 cup olive oil
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
1 cup all-purpose flour
8 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 tablespoons butter
1 teaspoon minced onion
1 teaspoon minced fresh garlic
1/4 cup dry white wine
1 cup heavy cream
3 tablespoons pesto (see recipe above)
1 teaspoon roux (see recipe above)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven for 350 degrees F.
  • To make the crab stuffing: Combine the crab, crackers, scallions, pepper, mayonnaise, egg, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, lemon, and garlic. Season the stuffing with salt and pepper and mix well. Set the stuffing aside.
  • Using a paring knife, slice the shrimp down the backs and remove and discard the 'veins'. Deepen the incisions if necessary, then spoon stuffing into each shrimp. Wrap each stuffed shrimp with bacon and arrange them in a large baking dish.
  • To make the pesto: pulse the basil, walnuts, cheese, and garlic together in a food processor (or grind in a mortar) then gradually incorporate the oil. Adjust the seasoning with lemon juice and set aside.
  • To make the roux: Heat the butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the flour, and cook, stirring, until the mixture, although still pale, looks dryer and no longer smells raw, about 5 minutes. Remove the roux from the heat.
  • Transfer the shrimp to the oven and roast until the bacon begins to render and brown, about 10 minutes. Flip the shrimp and roast on the second side until the shrimp are opaque, 5 to 10 minutes more.
  • Meanwhile, make the lemon basil cream: Heat the oil and butter in a small skillet over medium heat. Add the onions and garlic and cook, stirring frequently, until the mixture is fragrant and golden, about 7 minutes. Add the wine and simmer for 5 minutes then add the cream. Simmer until the sauce has reduced by half. Add the lemon juice and pesto, then whisk in the roux a tablespoon at a time (use just enough to thicken the sauce). Keep the sauce warm over very low heat.
  • Arrange the shrimp on 4 warm plates and serve with lemon basil cream sauce on the side.

Provided by ImNotHere

Categories     Vegetable

Time 30m

Yield 20 stuffed mushrooms

Number Of Ingredients 4

1/2 cup minced green onion
2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
20 fresh mushrooms, stems removed
1 lb sliced bacon, cut in half

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350.
  • In a medium bowl, mix together the green onions and cream cheese.
  • Stuff the mushroom caps with the cheese mixture.
  • Wrap a slice of bacon around each mushroom.
  • Place on cookie sheet.
  • Bake for 20 minutes, or until bacon is cooked through.

Tips:

  • Choose the right mushrooms. Large, firm mushrooms with intact stems work best for this recipe. White button mushrooms, cremini mushrooms, and portobello mushrooms are all good choices.
  • Clean the mushrooms gently. Use a damp paper towel to wipe the mushrooms clean. Avoid rinsing them under water, as this can make them soggy.
  • Remove the stems from the mushrooms. Use a sharp knife to carefully remove the stems from the mushrooms. Leave the caps intact.
  • Stuff the mushrooms generously. Fill the mushroom caps with the crab stuffing, pressing it down gently to compact it.
  • Wrap the mushrooms tightly with bacon. Overlap the bacon slices slightly to ensure that the mushrooms are completely covered.
  • Bake the mushrooms at a high temperature. This will help to crisp up the bacon and cook the mushrooms through.
  • Serve the mushrooms hot. These are best enjoyed immediately after they are baked, while the bacon is still crispy and the mushrooms are still juicy.

Conclusion:

These bacon-wrapped crab-stuffed mushrooms are a delicious and easy appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. They are sure to be a hit at your next party or potluck. With their crispy bacon, tender crab, and flavorful stuffing, these mushrooms are a delicious and satisfying snack or side dish. They are also a great way to use up leftover crab meat.
