Let’s get cooking! Here’s how to bring these delightful bites to life:

1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes.
3. Add the crab meat to the skillet and stir gently, ensuring everything is well combined. Cook for another 2-3 minutes.
4. Remove the skillet from heat and stir in the breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, parsley, salt, and pepper. Squeeze in the lemon juice for a burst of freshness.
5. Place the mushroom caps on the prepared baking sheet, hollow side up. Spoon the crab mixture into each cap, pressing gently to pack the filling.
6. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the mushrooms are tender and the tops are golden brown.
7. Serve warm, garnished with additional parsley if desired.

From my experience, the secret to perfect stuffed mushrooms is not over-stuffing them. They should be filled generously, but not so much that they topple over in the oven. Trust me; I’ve learned that the hard way!
