CREOLE CRAB-STUFFED MUSHROOMS



Creole Crab-Stuffed Mushrooms image

Old Bay® and Creole seasoning elevate this crab and cream cheese filling to another level. Great party food!

Provided by amydawn319

Time 55m

Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 teaspoon butter for greasing, or as needed
1 (16 ounce) package cremini mushrooms
2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
2 cups shredded Colby-Jack cheese, divided
1 bunch green onions, thinly sliced
2 teaspoons seafood seasoning (such as Old Bay®)
1 teaspoon Creole seasoning (such as Tony Chachere's®)
½ teaspoon garlic powder
1 pound fresh crabmeat
½ cup Italian-seasoned bread crumbs

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch pan with butter.
  • Wash mushrooms and remove stems. Scrape out mushroom caps to make an ample "bowl" for the filling.
  • Mix cream cheese, 1 cup Colby-Jack cheese, green onions, seafood seasoning, Creole seasoning, and garlic powder together until thoroughly combined. Crumble in crabmeat, making sure there are no large chunks so the consistency works well for stuffing. Mix in bread crumbs.
  • Start forming a ball of stuffing and place it in a mushroom cap, making the mushroom cap form-fit the ball. The stuffing should be ample so the mushroom cap wraps around the bottom half of the ball. Repeat to stuff remaining mushrooms, then transfer into the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle remaining Colby-Jack on top, smoothing it down so it sticks to the stuffing.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. Turn on the broiler and broil until cheese is bubbly, about 3 minutes. Remove from the oven and let sit for 10 minutes before serving.

DEVILED CRAB STUFFED MUSHROOMS



Deviled Crab Stuffed Mushrooms image

This is the absolute best Stuffed Mushroom recipe I've ever found. I've made this many times, and there are never any left no matter how many I make. My brother in law says they're "To Die For!" I adapted this recipe from the Deviled Crab recipe from The Joy of Cooking cookbook. You can make the stuffing a day ahead to save time and keep refrigerated until ready to stuff the mushrooms, and it comes out perfectly. I hope you enjoy this one.

Categories     Crab

Time 45m

Yield 48 approx., 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

3 (8 ounce) packages white button mushrooms
3 (12 ounce) canned crabmeat (drained and flaked, not lump crabmeat, and not imitation)
1/4 cup onion, finely chopped
1/4 cup green bell pepper, finely chopped
1/4 cup celery, finely chopped
2 tablespoons butter
1/4-1/2 cup saltine crumbs
3/4 cup milk
2 eggs, beaten
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons prepared mustard
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 dash black pepper, to taste
2 cups monterey jack cheese, shredded

Steps:

  • Clean mushrooms, remove stems and place in a 13 X 9" baking dish. Place in the baking dish as tightly as you can, because they will slightly shrink when cooked. I use the small to medium mushrooms.
  • Drain crabmeat and flake. Set aside.
  • In a non stick skillet, cook onions, bell pepper and celery in the butter until the onions are slightly golden. Add milk and cracker crumbs and cook until thickened. It is at this point that you want your mixture to be like a thick batter. Add more cracker crumbs if needed.
  • Remove from heat and add the beaten eggs, salt, pepper, cayenne pepper, mustard and crabmeat. Mix well.
  • Spoon the crab mixture into the mushroom caps until you've used it all.
  • Bake at 400 degrees until the peaks of the crab mixture is golden brown.
  • Add shredded cheese, as much as you like and bake a little longer until the cheese is melted. You can also use mozzerella, but Monterrey Jack has a bit more flavor. Best served hot or warm, but quite tasty cold too.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh, high-quality ingredients: Use fresh celery stalks that are crisp and brightly colored. Fresh crab meat is also essential for the best flavor. If you're using frozen crab meat, thaw it thoroughly before using.
  • Don't overcook the celery: Celery should be cooked until it is tender-crisp, but not mushy. Overcooked celery will lose its flavor and texture.
  • Use a variety of fillings: In addition to crab meat, you can also stuff celery with other fillings, such as shrimp, tuna, or chicken. You can also add vegetables, such as bell pepper, onion, or celery, to the filling.
  • Be creative with your toppings: You can top crab-stuffed celery with a variety of sauces, such as melted butter, tartar sauce, or ranch dressing. You can also sprinkle it with grated Parmesan cheese or chopped fresh herbs.

Conclusion:

Crab-stuffed celery is a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or snack. It is perfect for parties or potlucks, and it can also be served as a light lunch or dinner. With a little creativity, you can create your own unique crab-stuffed celery recipe that your family and friends will love.
