CRAB-STUFFED MUSHROOMS



Crab-Stuffed Mushrooms image

This gorgeous yet easy-to-make dish of crab-stuffed mushrooms is perfect as an appetizer.

Provided by Vered DeLeeuw

Categories     Appetizer

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 10

24 large baby Bella mushrooms ((about 1 lb.))
Olive oil cooking spray
8 oz fresh lump crabmeat
¼ cup scallions (chopped )
6 tablespoons sour cream
¼ cup Parmesan (grated)
½ teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon dried thyme
¼ teaspoon black pepper
⅛ teaspoon paprika

Steps:

  • Preheat the broiler, setting the temperature on high. Set an oven rack in the middle of the oven (this will prevent the mushrooms from scorching under the broiler). Line a broiler-safe rimmed baking sheet with foil.
  • Use damp paper towels to gently wipe the mushrooms clean. Gently twist the stems off. Spray the mushrooms with olive oil on both sides. Broil in the middle of the oven until just tender, 2-3 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels.
  • Transfer the crabmeat to a medium bowl, feeling through the meat to make sure no shell pieces remain. If using jumbo lump crabmeat (which comes in larger pieces than lump crabmeat), use a fork to break the lumps into smaller pieces.
  • Add the remaining ingredients except for the paprika and mix well with a rubber spatula until fully combined.
  • Spoon the crab mixture into the mushrooms, dividing it evenly. Each mushroom should hold about 2 tablespoons of filling. Pack the filling into the mushrooms and pile it high if needed. Sprinkle the stuffed mushrooms with paprika.
  • Arrange the mushrooms, filling side up, back on the baking sheet (you might need to use a clean new sheet of foil). Lightly spray them with olive oil.
  • Broil the mushrooms briefly, just until the filling is warm and golden, for about 3 minutes. Serve immediately.

Provided by Kim Hardesty

Categories     Appetizer     Side Dish

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 14

8 large white button or brown mushrooms ((1/2 pound))
1 can lump crabmeat, drained ((6 ounce can))
4 ounces cream Cheese, softened
1/2 cup finely grated cheddar cheese ((divided use))
2 tbsp mayonnaise
2 tsp prepared horseradish
2 tsp lemon juice
1/4-1/2 tsp lemon zest
1 tbsp green onion, minced
1/2 tsp garlic, minced
1/4 tsp red pepper flakes
1 pinch salt
black pepper to taste
1 tsp fresh parsley, minced

Steps:

  • Wash mushrooms under running water and pat dry. Remove stem by twisting and pulling out. Scoop-out/widen the hole by scooping with a melon baller (optional) to make a larger well for the filling. Place the mushrooms on a rimmed baking tray or in a large baking dish.
  • Preheat oven to 375 F degrees and place rack to middle position.
  • Stir the cream cheese to soften. Blend in the mayonnaise. Add the lemon juice, prepared horseradish, parsley, green onion, fresh lemon juice, and red pepper flakes, blending to incorporate.
  • Fold in half of the cheddar cheese, then fold in the crab. Taste to adjust seasonings.
  • Stuff the mushrooms with the filling and top with the remaining cheddar cheese. Do not overfill the mushrooms. I had a little filling left over which was great on celery and crackers!
  • At this point, the mushrooms can be refrigerated overnight and baked the next day. Cover carefully in cling film. When ready, continue with the directions for baking. Add an extra 5-10 minutes baking time for the mushrooms to cook through.
  • Pour enough water in the bottom of the baking tray to cover the bottom surface. Carefully put the try of mushrooms in the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, depending on your oven. Finish under the broiler to brown the tops.
  • Place any leftover mushrooms in an airtight container or cover with cling film and refrigerate. Reheat in the microwave or cover in foil and warm in a 350 F oven for 20-30 minutes.
  • Serves 4 people. Serving size is 2 stuffed mushrooms at 4 net carbs per serving.

Tips:

  • Choose the right mushrooms. For this recipe, you'll need large mushrooms with a wide, flat cap. Portobello or cremini mushrooms are both good choices.
  • Stuff the mushrooms ahead of time. You can stuff the mushrooms up to 24 hours ahead of time, which makes them a great option for a party or potluck.
  • Bake the mushrooms until they are tender. The mushrooms should be cooked until they are soft and juicy. This will take about 20 minutes.
  • Serve the mushrooms immediately. Crab-stuffed mushrooms are best served hot out of the oven.
