Savory Crab Stuffed Mushrooms

These Savory Crab Stuffed Mushrooms are pure culinary enchantment—sea-kissed crab nestled inside hearty mushroom caps. Whether you’re looking to impress guests or elevate your own dinner plate, this recipe delivers refined flavor with astonishing simplicity.

Ingredients (Makes 24 Mouthfuls of Magic):

• 24 plump brown mushrooms
• ¾ pound delicate crabmeat
• 2 tablespoons zesty lemon juice
• ½ cup crisp panko crumbs
• ½ cup melted unsalted butter
• ½ cup finely grated Parmesan
• 3 teaspoons bold Dijon mustard
• 2 teaspoons horseradish with a kick
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• ½ teaspoon onion powder
• 2 tablespoons freshly minced parsley

How to Conjure These Gourmet Gems:

1. Ignite your oven at 375°F and prepare your baking vessel—a 9×13-inch dish slicked lightly with oil or butter.
2. In a large mixing bowl, add the crabmeat and a splash of fresh lemon juice, letting the citrus enhance its natural sweetness. Sprinkle in the panko and gently fold the mixture to combine without breaking up the crab.
3. Drizzle in the melted butter like liquid gold, then add the mustard, horseradish, garlic powder, onion powder, and half of the Parmesan. Gently stir until the mixture comes together just enough to hold its shape.
4. Spoon the savory blend into each mushroom cap, packing it in tenderly without crushing the shape.
5. Place each stuffed mushroom snugly into the baking dish, then sprinkle the tops with the remaining Parmesan to create a rich, golden crust.
6. Slide the dish into the oven and bake for 15 to 20 minutes, until the mushrooms are softened and the tops sport a golden crisp.
7. Once out of the oven, crown each mushroom with a flutter of fresh parsley for brightness and beauty.

Serve these savory stuffed mushrooms warm, their centers creamy and rich, wrapped in a delicate buttery note and finished with a fresh hint of herbs. From start to finish, this dish offers effortless indulgence in every bite—elegant without the need for extravagance.
