Ingredients:
Garlic oil
- 3 cloves of garlic
- 165 g of butter at room temperature
- Finely grated zest and juice of 1 lemon
- 1 cup finely chopped fresh parsley
Mushrooms
- 16 large brown button mushrooms, stems removed
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 shallot, chopped
- 220 g lump crab meat, sorted to remove shell fragments
- 1/4 cup dry white wine
- 1/4 cup panko (Japanese breadcrumbs)
- Lemon wedges for serving
Preparation:
- Prepare garlic oil: Chop the garlic in a food processor.
Add butter, lemon zest, lemon juice, parsley, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper; beat until smooth. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
- Mushrooms: Preheat oven to 200°C, drizzle mushrooms with 1 tbsp olive oil and season with salt.
Stir 1 teaspoon of garlic oil into each cap (reserve the remaining garlic oil for the crab filling). Pack the mushrooms tightly into a baking dish and bake until tender, about 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the shallots and crabmeat; cook until the onions are soft, about 3 minutes. Add the wine and cook until slightly reduced, about 1 minute. Add the remaining garlic butter (about 1/3 cup) and let it melt. Season with salt and pepper. Remove from the heat and move the crabmeat to one side of the skillet to catch the juices.
- Remove the mushrooms from the oven and turn the oven to broil. Fill the mushrooms with the crab filling. Stir. breadcrumbs with the juice in a frying pan and place on top of the mushrooms. Grill in the oven until golden brown, about 2 minutes. Sprinkle with lemon juice.
