CRAB STUFFED MUSHROOMS



Crab Stuffed Mushrooms image

This tasty appetizer seasoned with thyme, oregano, and savory. Choose good sized mushrooms, about 2 inches across. When cleaning mushrooms, don't run them under water. They are like little sponges, and will absorb it; just wipe them clean with a damp towel. The filling can be made with fresh, canned, or imitation crabmeat. If using canned, be sure to rinse it first.

Provided by Norelllaura1

Categories     Crab

Time 20m

Yield 12-15 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 tablespoon butter
1/4 cup finely diced onion
1/4 cup finely diced celery
1 ounce white wine
1/4 teaspoon white pepper
1/2 teaspoon thyme
1 teaspoon lemon juice
4 ounces lump crabmeat or 4 ounces king crab meat
1 ounce heavy cream or 1 ounce half-and-half cream
1/4 cup shredded swiss cheese or 1/4 cheddar cheese
1/2 cup breadcrumbs
16 stuffing mushrooms, stems removed
16 slices swiss cheese (small thin slices) or 16 slices cheddar cheese (small thin slices)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375°F.
  • Melt butter in a medium skillet over medium heat and sauté onion and celery until soft. Add wine, seasonings, lemon juice and crabmeat; simmer about 3 minutes.
  • Add cream and shredded cheese; cook until cheese melts. Add breadcrumbs and stir well.
  • Spoon mixture into mushroom caps and top with slices of cheese.
  • Bake 12-15 minutes or until cheese is lightly browned.

Tips:

  • Choose the right mushrooms. Medium-sized mushrooms with a firm texture and intact stems are ideal for stuffing. Look for varieties such as white button, cremini, or portobello mushrooms.
  • Prepare the mushrooms properly. Wipe the mushrooms clean with a damp paper towel and remove the stems. Use a spoon to gently scoop out the gills, being careful not to tear the mushroom caps.
  • Make a flavorful filling. The crab stuffing is the star of the dish, so make sure it's packed with flavor. Use fresh crab meat and combine it with a variety of herbs, spices, and vegetables. Some popular ingredients include onion, celery, garlic, breadcrumbs, parsley, and Old Bay seasoning.
  • Stuff the mushrooms carefully. Spoon the crab stuffing into the mushroom caps, taking care not to overfill them. The filling should be slightly mounded above the top of the mushroom cap.
  • Bake the mushrooms until golden brown. Place the stuffed mushrooms in a baking dish and bake them in a preheated oven until the mushrooms are tender and the filling is golden brown. This usually takes about 20-25 minutes.
  • Serve the mushrooms immediately. Crab-stuffed mushrooms are best served hot out of the oven. Garnish them with fresh parsley or chives for a pop of color and flavor.

Conclusion:

Crab-stuffed mushrooms are a delicious and elegant appetizer or main course that's perfect for any occasion. They're easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With a variety of flavors and textures, crab-stuffed mushrooms are sure to be a hit with your guests.
