Ingredients
- 4 whole Large portabella mushrooms
- 1 cup Lump crab meat
- 4 ounces Cream cheese
- 0.5 cup Blue cheese crumbles
- 0.25 cup Panko breadcrumbs
- 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley, chopped
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Step 2
Gently clean the portabella mushrooms with a damp paper towel and remove the stems. Use a spoon to carefully scrape out the gills and create space for stuffing.
Step 3
Place the cleaned mushrooms on a parchment-lined baking sheet, gill side up. Brush them lightly with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and set aside.
Step 4
In a mixing bowl, combine the lump crab meat, cream cheese, 1/4 cup of the blue cheese crumbles, panko breadcrumbs, parsley, minced garlic, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.
Step 5
Divide the crab mixture into four portions and stuff each portabella mushroom. Be generous, ensuring they’re fully filled.
Step 6
Top each stuffed mushroom with the remaining blue cheese crumbles for added flavor.
Step 7
Drizzle the mushrooms with the remaining tablespoon of olive oil to help them crisp up and bake beautifully.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the mushrooms are tender and the filling is golden-brown on top.
Step 9
Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes before serving.
Step 10
Garnish with additional chopped parsley if desired. Serve warm and enjoy the harmony of flavors!
