Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with a silpat mat or parchment paper and set aside.
- Wash the mushrooms and pop out the stems. Chop the stems finely. In a large non-stick frying pan over medium heat, saute the onions until softened. Add the garlic and the chopped mushroom stems and season with salt and pepper. Continue to cook for 3-4 minutes until the onions have browned and the mushrooms have released their liquid. Remove from the heat and set aside.
- In a large bowl, mix together the cream cheese and the egg yolk until well combined. Stir in the parmesan cheese and the crab meat. Add the onion mixture and stir well. If the mixture is really soft, place the bowl in the fridge for 5-10 minutes to allow it to firm up before filling the mushrooms.
- Scoop the filling into the mushroom caps and place them on the baking sheet. Fill them up as full as you can, it can be heaped up a bit. If you're using bacon, take half a piece of bacon and lay it across the top of the filled mushroom cap and wrap the ends around, setting it down on the baking sheet on top of the ends to hold them in place. Repeat with the other mushrooms.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the bacon is as well cooked as you would like. Let them cool slightly before eating.

Steps:
- Position an oven rack in the top of the oven and preheat the broiler to high.
- Add the crab, breadcrumbs, mayonnaise, parsley, lemon zest and juice, garlic, 2 tablespoons of the steak sauce and 1/2 teaspoon salt to a large bowl and stir until well combined.
- Cut a deep slit down the ridged back of each shrimp and open it up like a book. Put the shrimp on a baking sheet and press the tails down firmly so they lay flat. Top evenly with the crab mixture, then lay a piece of bacon across the crab mixture on each shrimp, tucking the ends under the shrimp and making sure they do not overlap.
- Broil until the bacon starts to crisp, about 10 minutes. Remove from the oven, brush with the remaining 1 tablespoon steak sauce and continue to broil until the bacon is dark golden and slightly charred in a few spots, about 2 minutes more depending on your broiler. Serve with lemon wedges.
BACON WRAPPED CRAB STUFFED SHRIMP WITH LEMON BASIL CREAM
Steps:
- Preheat the oven for 350 degrees F.
- To make the crab stuffing: Combine the crab, crackers, scallions, pepper, mayonnaise, egg, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, lemon, and garlic. Season the stuffing with salt and pepper and mix well. Set the stuffing aside.
- Using a paring knife, slice the shrimp down the backs and remove and discard the 'veins'. Deepen the incisions if necessary, then spoon stuffing into each shrimp. Wrap each stuffed shrimp with bacon and arrange them in a large baking dish.
- To make the pesto: pulse the basil, walnuts, cheese, and garlic together in a food processor (or grind in a mortar) then gradually incorporate the oil. Adjust the seasoning with lemon juice and set aside.
- To make the roux: Heat the butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the flour, and cook, stirring, until the mixture, although still pale, looks dryer and no longer smells raw, about 5 minutes. Remove the roux from the heat.
- Transfer the shrimp to the oven and roast until the bacon begins to render and brown, about 10 minutes. Flip the shrimp and roast on the second side until the shrimp are opaque, 5 to 10 minutes more.
- Meanwhile, make the lemon basil cream: Heat the oil and butter in a small skillet over medium heat. Add the onions and garlic and cook, stirring frequently, until the mixture is fragrant and golden, about 7 minutes. Add the wine and simmer for 5 minutes then add the cream. Simmer until the sauce has reduced by half. Add the lemon juice and pesto, then whisk in the roux a tablespoon at a time (use just enough to thicken the sauce). Keep the sauce warm over very low heat.
- Arrange the shrimp on 4 warm plates and serve with lemon basil cream sauce on the side.

CRAB STUFFED MUSHROOMS
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.

- Cook the mushrooms. Place the mushrooms on a baking sheet and bake them at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 20-25 minutes, or until the bacon is crispy and the mushrooms are tender.
