Preparation
-
Preheat oven to 400\u00b0.
Combine together cream cheese, crab, shrimp, almonds, butter, garlic, lemon juice, parsley, Worcestershire sauce, and hot pepper sauce in a bowl. Season to taste and stir in breadcrumbs.
Remove stems from mushrooms and cut a sliver-thin slice from the top rounded side, so that they will stand upright securely. Fill each cap with 1 to 2 tbsp crab/shrimp mixture. Place in 4 individual baking dishes.
Combine butter, lemon juice, lemon rind and parsley and season well. Drizzle 1/4 cup of butter mixture over each dish of mushrooms .
Make for 12 to 15 minutes, or until caps are cooked. Garnish each dish with parsley sprigs and a twist of lemon.
