Crab Stuffed Mushrooms Recipe
When you make these Crab Stuffed Mushrooms, you and your guests will have a hard time stopping at one! Pair jumbo lump crab meat with cream cheese and fill white button or baby bella mushroom caps then bake in the oven until they're golden and crispy.
Servings: 15 servings
Ingredients
- 16 oz. mushrooms small-medium, about 15-20*
- ¼ cup mayonnaise
- 4 oz. cream cheese softened
- ¼ cup + 2 Tbsp. Parmesan cheese grated, divided
- 2 cloves garlic crushed
- ¼ tsp. paprika
- ¼ tsp. red pepper flakes
- 2 tsp. lemon juice fresh
- ½ tsp. salt to taste
- ¼ tsp. black pepper
- 8 oz. lump crab meat canned or fresh
- 2 Tbsp. green onions or chives, finely chopped
- 2 Tbsp. Panko breadcrumbs gluten free if needed
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 °F
- Prepare Mushrooms: Clean mushrooms with a damp paper towel to remove any dirt and debris. Remove the stems from the mushrooms by pulling them to one side and then snapping them off. You can also use a knife to cut them off if the stems do not snap easily. Place mushrooms on a large baking sheet that has been lined with parchment paper.
- Mix Crab Filling: In a medium-sized bowl mix together cream cheese, mayonnaise, ¼ cup Parmesan cheese, garlic, paprika, red pepper flakes, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Add crabmeat and green onions. Mix delicately until just combined so the crabmeat does not break apart too much.
- Fill Mushrooms: Fill each mushroom cap with 1 to 1 ½ tablespoons of the crabmeat filling mixture. Pay careful attention not to fill them up with more filling than they are tall to prevent overflow while baking. Whisk together 2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese with 2 tablespoons of breadcrumbs. Sprinkle about a teaspoon over each filled mushroom.
- Cook in Oven: Bake in preheated oven for 20 minutes, or until the tops become crispy and golden brown. Serve with additional chopped chives and a sprinkle of paprika. Enjoy!
