Description

These Crab Stuffed Mushrooms are the ultimate elegant appetizer, featuring a savory filling of sweet lump crab meat, fresh breadcrumbs, and a hint of lemon. The mushrooms are first marinated in Italian dressing to infuse them with rich flavor, then baked until tender and golden. The combination of the creamy mayonnaise-based stuffing and the earthy mushrooms creates a delightful textural contrast. Perfect for cocktail parties, holiday gatherings, or a sophisticated start to a dinner party. They come together quickly and look impressive on any platter.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375&# 194;°F (190ðC).
  2. Clean the mushrooms and remove the stems. Slice the stems finely and set aside with the caps.
  3. Place the mushroom caps in a bowl and toss with Italian dressing to coat evenly. Let them marinate for about 10-15 minutes, then drain off any excess liquid.
  4. In a separate mixing bowl, combine the picked crabmeat, 3/4 cup of fresh breadcrumbs, beaten eggs, mayonnaise, minced onion, and lemon juice. Mix gently until just combined.
  5. Arrange the drained mushroom caps on a baking sheet. Spoon the crab mixture into the center of each cap, filling them generously.
  6. Sprinkle the remaining breadcrumbs over the top of the stuffed mushrooms.
  7. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and the filling is heated through.
  8. Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving.
