Ingredients

  • A touch of butter for greasing, to ensure nothing sticks
  • A generous package of cremini mushrooms, adding depth to the dish
  • Two packages of softened cream cheese, for a rich and creamy texture
  • Two cups of shredded Colby-Jack cheese, divided for layers of gooey goodness
  • A bunch of green onions, thinly sliced to bring a fresh crunch
  • Two teaspoons of seafood seasoning, like Old Bay®, for a burst of flavor
  • A hint of Creole seasoning, such as Tony Chachere's®, to spice things up
  • A dash of garlic powder, for that extra kick
  • A pound of fresh crabmeat, the star of this delectable dish
  • Half a cup of Italian-seasoned bread crumbs, adding a crispy finish

Step 1

To begin, preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius) and generously butter a 9x13-inch baking pan.

Step 2

Begin by gently washing the mushrooms and carefully removing their stems. Hollow out the mushroom caps to create a perfect little "bowl" for our delicious filling.

Step 3

In a mixing bowl, combine creamy cream cheese, a generous cup of flavorful Colby-Jack cheese, finely chopped green onions, a dash of seafood seasoning, a hint of Creole seasoning, and a sprinkle of aromatic garlic powder. Blend these ingredients together until they are perfectly integrated. Add in the tender crabmeat, ensuring it is well distributed without any large chunks, for a harmonious stuffing consistency. Gently fold in the bread crumbs to bind everything together.

Step 4

Now, let's get creative! Take a scoop of the flavorful stuffing mixture and carefully mold it into a ball, nestling it into a mushroom cap. The stuffing should be abundant, allowing the mushroom cap to snugly envelop the lower half of the ball. Repeat this process with the remaining mushrooms, arranging them neatly in the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle the remaining Colby-Jack cheese on top, gently pressing it down to ensure it adheres to the stuffing.

Step 5

Slide the dish into the preheated oven and bake for about 10 minutes. Then, switch on the broiler and broil the mushrooms until the cheese is golden and bubbly, which should take roughly 3 minutes. Once done, remove the dish from the oven and allow it to rest for 10 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld and the dish to cool slightly. Enjoy the delightful flavors and textures of these stuffed mushrooms!

Extra Tips & Suggestions

  1. 1. Keep your Creole Crab Mushrooms in an airtight container to maintain their fresh flavor and prevent them from absorbing any unwanted odors.
  2. 2. Store them in the refrigerator in the crisper drawer to help regulate humidity and keep them at the optimal temperature.
