Method
Preparation
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment or lightly oil it.
- Clean mushrooms by wiping with a damp paper towel. Twist stems out and set caps aside. Finely chop the stems.
- In a small skillet, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium heat. Sauté chopped stems, minced garlic, and most of the green onion (reserve a pinch for garnish) until softened, about 3–4 minutes. Cool slightly.
- In a bowl, combine crab meat, softened cream cheese, breadcrumbs, sautéed stem mixture, lemon juice, and 1/4 cup Parmesan. Mix gently so crab pieces stay intact. Taste and adjust salt/pepper.
Cooking
- Spoon the filling into the mushroom caps, mounding slightly. Place them on the prepared baking sheet.
- Sprinkle the remaining Parmesan over the filled mushrooms. Drizzle each cap lightly with olive oil.
- Bake for 18–22 minutes, until the tops are golden and the mushrooms are tender but not collapsing. For a browned top, switch to broil for the last 1–2 minutes—watch closely.
- Remove from the oven and let cool for 3 minutes. Garnish with reserved green onion and a squeeze of lemon if desired.
