Ingredients
- 12 Large White Button Mushrooms Cleaned With Stems Removed And Discarded
- Olive Oil Spray
- 8 ounces, weight Cream Cheese, Softened
- ½ cups Fresh Bread Crumbs
- 2 cloves Minced Garlic
- ½ Tablespoons Worcestershire Sauce
- ½ cups Finely Chopped Green Onions
- ½ cups Freshly Grated Parmesan Cheese
- 2 Tablespoons Fresh Chopped Italian Parsley
- 1 cup Cooked Shelled Crab Finely Chopped (I Use King Crab)
Preparation
Preheat oven to 375ºF.
Lightly spray mushrooms with olive oil spray and arrange mushrooms cap side down on a cookie sheet.
In a large bowl, mix cream cheese, bread crumbs, garlic, Worcestershire sauce, green onions, Parmesan, parsley and crab.
Scoop about 1 1/2 tablespoons of filling into each mushroom. Bake for 20 minutes. Turn broiler on the last minute of cooking to lightly brown the tops. Stay close by as I have always found broilers unpredictable.
Note: You can add 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper or 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper for a little kick.
