Baby Portabella's Stuffed With Shrimp - Serving's: 4
Using your thumb, snap the stem out of the mushroom. Remove and save. Using a small knife, cut around the outside of the mushroom and remove the outer piece of mushroom. Chop all of the mushroom pieces small and set aside till needed.
Preparing The Shrimp
You can purchase shrimp that is already shelled and cleaned for you. If you need to peel & clean the shrimp, please see our video presentation of this wonderful recipe.
Chop the shrimp into small pieces and season with Mama Carol's Seafood Rub and squirt with olive oil spray. Mix to coat all of the shrimp and set aside.
Let's Get Cooking
Heat a large skillet to medium heat and place 1 Tbsp of extra virgin olive oil. Next add the onion, garlic, celery, bell pepper and reserved chopped mushroom pieces. Season with no-salt and saute the veggies until they are soft and tender.
Add the shrimp and cook for 2 minutes (no longer, you do not want to over cook the shrimp). Stir constantly while cooking the shrimp. Remove from the skillet into a bowl and allow to cool for 5 minutes.
Stuffing the Mushrooms
Line a baking pan with aluminum foil and squirt olive oil spray onto the foil . Place the mushrooms, upside down on the pan and fill each mushroom with shrimp stuffing. Sprinkle bread crumbs over the top of each mushroom.
Place the pan into the oven and cook for 25 to 30 minutes, till mushrooms are nice and tender.
