Description

Recreate the popular Red Lobster Crab Stuffed Mushrooms appetizer at home with this detailed copycat recipe.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound white button mushrooms, stems removed and finely chopped
  • 8 ounces lump crab meat, drained and picked over
  • 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 1/4 cup panko breadcrumbs, plus extra for topping
  • 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh parsley
  • 1 teaspoon Old Bay seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Lightly grease a baking sheet.
  2. Wipe the mushroom caps clean. Chop the removed stems finely.
  3. In a medium bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, mayonnaise, lemon juice, parsley, Old Bay seasoning, garlic powder, and black pepper. Mix until smooth.
  4. Gently fold in the lump crab meat, ensuring you do not break up the lumps too much.
  5. Stir in the 1/4 cup of panko breadcrumbs until just combined.
  6. Arrange the mushroom caps cavity-side up on the prepared baking sheet.
  7. Spoon the crab mixture evenly into each mushroom cap, mounding it slightly.
  8. In a small bowl, mix the extra panko breadcrumbs with the Parmesan cheese. Sprinkle this topping over the filled mushrooms.
  9. Brush the tops lightly with the melted butter.
  10. Bake for 18 to 20 minutes, or until the filling is hot and the topping is golden brown.
  11. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • Use fresh, good quality crab meat for the best flavor replication.
  • If you prefer a richer flavor, substitute half of the mayonnaise with sour cream.
  • You can prepare the filling up to one day ahead and store it covered in the refrigerator.
