These Seafood Stuffed Mushrooms are seasoned with Old Bay and filled with real jumbo lump crab meat, shrimp, cream cheese, Parmesan, and gooey mozzarella. These homemade caps are better than the Red Lobster version.

What Type of Seafood to Use
I like to use real jumbo lump crab meat. Check out our post, What is Lump Crab Meat.
Be sure to check out our guides on Shrimp Size Guide and Counts Per Pound and How to Tell if Shrimp is Bad.
I like large shrimp cut into 1 inch chunks.
How to Make Seafood Stuffed Mushrooms
Full detailed instructions are below in the recipe card.
- Cut the stem out of the mushroom to prepare it for stuffing. I first chop off the stem, and then make a circular cut around the area where the stem was. Continue to cut until you have removed excess mushroom.
- Combine the softened cream cheese, shrimp, crab, shredded cheese, Old Bay, salt, pepper, garlic, and Worcestershire sauce in a medium bowl. Stir to combine. I like to reserve some of the Parmesan for the mushroom topping at the end.
- Stuff the mushrooms with the cheese mixture.
- Bake or air fry.
How to Store Leftovers
Leftovers can be stored tightly covered and sealed for 3-4 days.
How to Reheat
You can reheat them in the microwave. You can also reheat them in the air fryer at 350 degrees until warm or in the oven at 350 degrees until warm.
Freezer Tips
You freeze them for up to 3 months tightly covered and sealed. Defrost in the fridge overnight.
