Description

These Crab and Shrimp Stuffed Mushrooms are creamy, savory, and bursting with seafood flavor. They’re the perfect bite-sized appetizer for holidays, dinner parties, or a weekend treat. Made with tender shrimp, sweet crab, and melty cheese inside a roasted mushroom cap—this recipe is easy, fancy, and fun.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 20 medium white or baby bella mushrooms, stems removed
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil or melted butter (for brushing)
  • 4 oz cooked shrimp, finely chopped
  • 4 oz lump crabmeat (fresh or canned, drained)
  • 6 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1/3 cup shredded mozzarella or Parmesan cheese
  • 2 green onions, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon Old Bay seasoning
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Optional: 1/4 cup breadcrumbs for topping
  • Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Prepare the mushrooms: Wipe the mushrooms clean with a damp paper towel. Remove stems and gently scoop out a bit more space inside each cap if needed. Brush each mushroom with olive oil or melted butter.
  3. Mix the filling: In a bowl, combine shrimp, crabmeat, cream cheese, shredded cheese, green onions, garlic, lemon juice, Old Bay seasoning, salt, and pepper. Stir until smooth and well blended.
  4. Stuff the mushrooms: Use a spoon to fill each mushroom cap generously with the seafood mixture. Top with a sprinkle of breadcrumbs if desired.
  5. Bake: Place mushrooms on the baking sheet and bake for 18–20 minutes, or until the tops are golden and the filling is bubbly.
  6. Garnish and serve: Sprinkle with fresh parsley and serve warm.

Notes

For best results, avoid rinsing mushrooms under water—they absorb moisture and can get soggy. You can prep the filling a day ahead and stuff the mushrooms right before baking. Swap crab for extra shrimp if preferred, or use dairy-free cheese to make it allergy-friendly.
