Best Easy Crab Stuffed Mushrooms Microwave Recipes

CRAB-STUFFED MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler, setting the temperature on high. Set an oven rack in the middle of the oven (this will prevent the mushrooms from scorching under the broiler). Line a broiler-safe rimmed baking sheet with foil.
• Use damp paper towels to gently wipe the mushrooms clean. Gently twist the stems off. Spray the mushrooms with olive oil on both sides. Broil in the middle of the oven until just tender, 2-3 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels.
• Transfer the crabmeat to a medium bowl, feeling through the meat to make sure no shell pieces remain. If using jumbo lump crabmeat (which comes in larger pieces than lump crabmeat), use a fork to break the lumps into smaller pieces.
• Add the remaining ingredients except for the paprika and mix well with a rubber spatula until fully combined.
• Spoon the crab mixture into the mushrooms, dividing it evenly. Each mushroom should hold about 2 tablespoons of filling. Pack the filling into the mushrooms and pile it high if needed. Sprinkle the stuffed mushrooms with paprika.
• Arrange the mushrooms, filling side up, back on the baking sheet (you might need to use a clean new sheet of foil). Lightly spray them with olive oil.
• Broil the mushrooms briefly, just until the filling is warm and golden, for about 3 minutes. Serve immediately.

EASY CRAB STUFFED MUSHROOMS (MICROWAVE)

Steps:

• 1. In a mixing bowl combine softened cream cheese with shredded crab meat. Everyone has their own taste as to how much crab to add. I just make sure there is more cream cheese than crab.
• 2. Add lemon pepper to taste. In my experience more is better so don't be shy with it. Taste it as you go and remember you can always add more.
• 3. Stuff each individual mushroom cap and place in a microwave safe glass baking dish making sure the size of the dish will fit in your microwave.
• 4. Place several pats of butter evenly in the bottom of the baking dish. Depending on the size of the dish as to how many pats of butter. You don't want them swimming in butter but want them moist while cooking and the butter adds flavor. I average about 6 or so.
• 5. Cover the dish with Saran Wrap and place in the microwave.
• 6. Cook on high. The time will vary for each microwave. I usually start out with about 4-5 minutes and add minutes as I go if needed. Get a feel for how your microwave cooks them and be sure not to overcook. You don't want the cheese mixture to cook over into the pan.
• 7. That is all there is to it. Enjoy!!!
• 8. Note: This mixture is fantastic to use as a wonton filler as well!
• 9. Note: These are excellent as they are but you can add other ingredients to suit your taste such as crumbled bacon, etc. If you add onion go sparingly so as not to drown out the taste of the crab. Once cooked in the microwave you could add your choice of shredded cheese on top and pop them in the oven on a low broil to melt the cheese.
