Ingredients

US Customary - Metric

4 portobello mushroom caps large caps or several small baby bellas
16 oz lump crab meat picked over for shells
4 oz Havarti cheese shredded (about 1 cup)
¼ cup Sundried tomatoes slices packed in oil
2 garlic cloves minced
olive oil
Salt and pepper

Instructions

Preheat oven to 425 °F (220°C). Line a baking dish with parchment paper or spray with non-stick cooking spray.
Remove stems and scrape out dark gills with a spoon. Using a damp paper towel, brush any dirt from the cap. Do not wash or submerge them because they will absorb the fluid and become soggy.
Brush both sides with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Place mushrooms on the pan caps upside down.
Place gill-side up on prepared baking sheet. Bake for 5-7 minutes until slightly softened.
In a medium bowl, gently combine crab meat, shredded Havarti, sun-dried tomatoes, and garlic scapes. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Remove mushrooms from oven and divide crab mixture evenly among the four caps, mounding it slightly.
Return to oven and bake for 8-10 minutes until cheese is melted and golden, and mushrooms are tender.
Let cool for 2-3 minutes, then garnish with fresh parsley and serve immediately.

Notes

Broiling Alternative: For a quicker method with extra golden cheese, preheat broiler with rack 6 inches from heat. Spray the baking sheet with non-stick cooking spray. Don't use parchment paper! Broil mushrooms for 3-4 minutes, add filling, then broil another 2-3 minutes until cheese is bubbly and golden brown.

Sundried tomatoes can burn under the broiler because of their high sugar content. Either watch carefully or sprinkle them on the caps when they come out of the oven.
