Ingredients for Porto Crab Imperial

Method

Directions for Preparing Porto Crab Imperial

  1. 1

    Prepare the Portobello Caps

    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Clean the portobello mushrooms and remove the stems. Drizzle with olive oil, and season with salt and black pepper. Place them on a baking sheet, gill side up.

  2. 2

    Make the Crab Imperial Filling

    In a mixing bowl, combine the lump crab meat, softened cream cheese, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, Old Bay seasoning, chopped green onions, lemon juice, and half of the grated Parmesan cheese. Mix gently until well combined. Add salt and black pepper to taste.

  3. 3

    Stuff the Mushrooms

    Spoon the crab mixture generously into each portobello cap, packing it lightly. Sprinkle the remaining Parmesan cheese on top of the stuffed mushrooms.

  4. 4

    Bake

    Bake the stuffed portobello caps in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and bubbly.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your Porto Crab Imperial warm!
