Crab Stuffed Jumbo Mushrooms Recipe

Preparation Steps

1. 1

   Preheat the Oven

   Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). This ensures the mushrooms cook evenly and the stuffing gets nice and golden.

2. 2

   Prepare the Mushrooms

   Gently clean the jumbo mushrooms with a damp paper towel. Remove the stems and set them aside. You will use the caps for stuffing.

3. 3

   Make the Stuffing

   In a mixing bowl, combine the fresh crab meat, cream cheese, minced garlic cloves, chopped green onions, grated Parmesan cheese, lemon juice, Old Bay seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.

4. 4

   Fill the Mushrooms

   Spoon the crab stuffing mixture into each mushroom cap, pressing it down gently to ensure it’s packed. Place the stuffed mushrooms on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

5. 5

   Drizzle with Olive Oil

   Drizzle the tops of the stuffed mushrooms with olive oil to enhance flavor and ensure they get a nice golden color while baking.

6. 6

   Bake the Mushrooms

   Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the mushrooms are tender and the tops are golden brown.

7. 7

   Serve

   Remove from the oven and allow to cool for a few minutes. Serve warm as an appetizer or main dish.
