CRAB-STUFFED MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler, setting the temperature on high. Set an oven rack in the middle of the oven (this will prevent the mushrooms from scorching under the broiler). Line a broiler-safe rimmed baking sheet with foil.
• Use damp paper towels to gently wipe the mushrooms clean. Gently twist the stems off. Spray the mushrooms with olive oil on both sides. Broil in the middle of the oven until just tender, 2-3 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels.
• Transfer the crabmeat to a medium bowl, feeling through the meat to make sure no shell pieces remain. If using jumbo lump crabmeat (which comes in larger pieces than lump crabmeat), use a fork to break the lumps into smaller pieces.
• Add the remaining ingredients except for the paprika and mix well with a rubber spatula until fully combined.
