Crab Stuffed Mushrooms image

This tasty appetizer seasoned with thyme, oregano, and savory. Choose good sized mushrooms, about 2 inches across. When cleaning mushrooms, don't run them under water. They are like little sponges, and will absorb it; just wipe them clean with a damp towel. The filling can be made with fresh, canned, or imitation crabmeat. If using canned, be sure to rinse it first.

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 pound fresh mushrooms
7 ounces crabmeat
5 green onions, thinly sliced
¼ teaspoon dried thyme
¼ teaspoon dried oregano
¼ teaspoon ground savory
ground black pepper to taste
¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
⅓ cup mayonnaise
3 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
¼ teaspoon paprika

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • In a medium bowl, combine crabmeat, green onions, herbs, and pepper. Mix in mayonnaise and 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese until well combined. Refrigerate filling until ready for use.
  • Wipe the mushrooms clean with a damp towel. Remove stems. Spoon out the gills and the base of the stem, making deep cups. Discard gills and stems.
