CRAB-STUFFED AVOCADOS BY JOHN BESH



Crab-Stuffed Avocados by John Besh image

You can make the dressing for the crab salad in advance and pick the crab from the shells a day ahead, but don't combine the two or cut and fill the avocados until moments before you're ready to serve. The bright crab flavor will become muddled if seasoned in advance and cut avocados have a tendency to oxidize and darken. -From My Family Table by John Besh/Andrews McMeel Publishing

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.

Tips:

  • To ensure the avocado halves are stable, slice a thin layer off the bottom of each avocado half so it sits flat.
  • If you don't have any fresh crab meat, you can use canned crab meat instead. Just be sure to drain it well before using.
  • If you don't have any bread crumbs, you can use crushed crackers or even cornflakes instead.
  • If you want a spicier filling, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or chili powder to the crab mixture.
  • To make the dish ahead of time, assemble the avocados and crab filling, but don't bake them. Cover them with plastic wrap and refrigerate for up to 24 hours. When you're ready to serve, bake them according to the recipe instructions.

Conclusion:

Creole crab stuffed avocados are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or main course. They're perfect for a party or a special occasion, and they're sure to impress your guests. So next time you're looking for a unique and flavorful dish, give Creole crab stuffed avocados a try!
