Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 portobello mushroom caps (31/2 to 4" diameter)
  • 8 oz lump crabmeat
  • 1/2 cup panko crumbs
  • 2 tablespoons chopped sweet onion
  • 1 or 2 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
  • 11/2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 2/3 cup shredded Muenster or Monterey Jack cheese (divided)
  • 1 egg (lightly beaten)
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Clean the portobello mushrooms with a damp paper towel and remove the stems. Hollow out each cap slightly by scraping out the gills.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine crabmeat, panko crumbs, sweet onion, garlic, thyme, lemon juice, half of the shredded cheese, and the egg. Season with salt and pepper; mix gently.
  3. Generously fill each mushroom cap with the crab mixture and top with the remaining cheese.
  4. Place stuffed mushrooms on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake for about 25 minutes until golden brown and bubbly.
