Crabmeat Karen Recipe

Preparation

1. 1

   Prepare the Filling

   In a medium skillet over medium heat, sauté the chopped mushrooms and minced garlic until the mushrooms are tender and any liquid has evaporated, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

2. 2

   Mix the Ingredients

   In a large bowl, combine the sautéed mushrooms, crabmeat, cream cheese, green onions, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.

3. 3

   Prepare the Puff Pastry

   Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Roll out the puff pastry on a lightly floured surface and cut into squares or circles, depending on your desired shape.

4. 4

   Assemble the Pastry

   Place a generous spoonful of the crab mixture in the center of each pastry square/circle. Fold over and seal the edges with a fork or your fingers. Cut small slits on top to allow steam to escape.

5. 5

   Bake

   Place the pastries on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown.
