Ingredients
- 14-16 mushrooms (cremini or brown mushrooms, cleaned with stems removed)
- ¼ cup panko breadcrumbs (or regular breadcrumbs)
- ¼ cup Parmesan Cheese (grated)
- 8 ounces cream cheese (at room temperature)
- ½ cup green onions (green and white parts, chopped)
- 2 cloves garlic (minced)
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley (finely chopped)
- 1 cup cooked crab meat (canned or frozen (thawed) or imitation crab, chopped)
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- If using frozen crab meat, allow it to thaw in the fridge overnight and then drain it very well. If using jarred or canned crab meat drain it very well. If using fresh or imitation crab, dice it into very small pieces.
- Preheat oven to 375°F. Lightly grease or spray an oven safe baking dish and set aside.
- Wipe mushrooms clean with damp paper towel. Gently pop off the stem of each mushroom. If using larger mushrooms, you can use a small spoon to scoop out some of the inside of the mushroom. Discard the stems and scooped out centers (or save to make an omelet, soup or pasta sauce).
- In a large bowl combine the Panko breadcrumbs, parmesan cheese, cream cheese, green onions, garlic, salt, pepper, and parsley. Mix until evenly combined. Add in the crab meat and gently mix to combine.
- Use a small spoon to stuff each mushroom with the crab filling (about 1 and ½ tablespoons per mushroom).
- Bake for 10 minutes covered with foil. Uncover and cook another 4-5 minutes until edges become golden brown. Serve and enjoy!
