Crabmeat Stuffed Portobello Mushroom Caps image

Provided by Food Network

Categories     appetizer

Time 1h45m

Yield 4 appetizer portions

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 large (4 to 5-ounce) portobello mushroom caps, stemmed
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 1/4 teaspoons salt
3/4 teaspoon freshly ground white pepper
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/4 cup small-diced onions
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 cup whole milk
Pinch freshly grated nutmeg
1/2 pound lump crabmeat, picked over
1/3 cup grated Gruyere
4 teaspoons bread crumbs

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Peel the brown skin from the tops of the mushrooms to reveal the cream colored under skin. Toss the mushroom caps with the 2 tablespoons of the olive oil and season with 1 teaspoon of salt and 1/2 teaspoon of pepper. Place the caps on an aluminum foil lined baking sheet, stem-end up, and roast in the oven until well roasted and browned, about 35 to 40 minutes. Remove from the oven and cool for 10 minutes.
  • Set a 1-quart saucepan over medium heat and add the butter to the pan. Once the butter is melted, about 1 minute, add the onions and saute until translucent, about 3 minutes. Sprinkle the flour into the pan and stir to form a roux. Continue to cook the roux for 2 to 3 minutes before adding the milk. Bring the milk to a boil and reduce to a simmer, season with the remaining 1/4 teaspoon of salt, 1/4 teaspoon of white pepper and the nutmeg.
  • Cook the bechamel sauce for 5 minutes before removing from the heat. Allow the mixture to cool slightly before folding in the crabmeat and cheese. Combine the bread crumbs with the remaining tablespoon of olive oil.
  • Spoon 1/3 cup of the bechamel over each mushroom cap and sprinkle 1 teaspoon of the bread crumb mixture over each stuffed mushroom. Place in the oven and roast until the bechamel is bubbling and lightly browned on the edges, about 8 to 10 minutes. Serve immediately.

CAPT. PHIL'S CRAB-STUFFED MUSHROOMS



Capt. Phil's Crab-Stuffed Mushrooms image

Captain Phil Harris of "Deadliest Catch" made this recipe on the series "After the Catch"; I thought they looked interesting. I would suggest garlic and herb cream cheese, Aloette or Boursin, though you may use what you have handy and suits you. I would think more shredded cheese would be necessary for 40 mushroom caps also. Taken from Discovery.com.

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:

  • Choose the right capsicums: Look for bell peppers that are firm, brightly colored, and have no blemishes. They should be about the same size so that they cook evenly.
  • Prepare the capsicums properly: Cut the capsicums in half lengthwise and remove the seeds and ribs. Rinse the capsicums and pat them dry before stuffing.
  • Make sure the filling is well-seasoned: The filling should be flavorful and well-seasoned so that it complements the mild flavor of the capsicums. Use a variety of herbs, spices, and seasonings to taste.
  • Don't overstuff the capsicums: The capsicums should be filled, but not overstuffed. Overstuffing can make the capsicums difficult to cook evenly and can also make them burst.
  • Bake the capsicums at the right temperature: The capsicums should be baked at a moderate temperature so that they cook through without burning. The ideal temperature is around 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius).
  • Serve the capsicums immediately: Stuffed capsicums are best served immediately after they are baked. This will ensure that they are hot and juicy.

Conclusion:

Stuffed capsicums are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed as an appetizer, main course, or side dish. They are easy to make and can be customized to your own taste. With a little planning and preparation, you can create a delicious and impressive dish that will be enjoyed by everyone at your table. Whether you are looking for a simple weeknight meal or a special occasion dish, stuffed capsicums are a great choice.
