Escargot Stuffed Mushroom Caps Recipes

THE KEG'S MUSHROOMS NEPTUNE {STUFFED MUSHROOMS}

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 F.
• Wash mushrooms, and remove stems very carefully. Heat olive oil in a large frying pan on med-high heat. Add mushroom caps, sprinkle with a tiny bit of salt, and sauté for 2 minutes each side until softened.
• Soften cream cheese in the microwave in a large bowl for about 15 seconds. Add cheeses, lemon juice, salt and pepper, crabmeat, shrimp and green onions, mixing well.
• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Add mushroom caps, and then spoon filling into mushroom caps, or pipe using a Ziploc bag with the corner cut off.
• Cook mushrooms in oven on the lowest oven rack for 15 minutes, then switch oven setting on to broil. Switch oven rack to the top setting and broil tops of the mushrooms for about 2-3 minutes until tops are lightly browned.
• Serve right away, or refrigerate for up to 24 hours and then reheat in 350 F oven for 15-20 minutes. Filling can also be frozen up to 3 months to refill fresh mushrooms with!

EASY GARLIC ESCARGOTS

Steps:

• Place escargots in a small bowl, and cover with cold water; set aside for 5 minutes. This will help to remove the canned flavor they may have.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease an 8x8 inch baking dish.
• Drain the water from the escargots and pat dry with a paper towel. Melt butter with the garlic in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the escargots and mushroom caps; cook and stir until the mushroom caps begin to soften, about 5 minutes.
• Whisk together wine, cream, flour, pepper, and tarragon in a small bowl until the flour is no longer lumpy. Pour this into the skillet, and bring to a boil. Cook, stirring occasionally until the sauce thickens, about 10 minutes.
• Remove the skillet from the heat, and use a spoon to place the mushrooms upside down into the prepared baking dish. Spoon an escargot into each mushroom cap. Pour the remaining sauce over the mushroom caps and into the baking dish. Sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese overtop.
• Bake in preheated oven until the Parmesan cheese has turned golden brown, 10 to 15 minutes.

BAKED ESCARGOT IN MUSHROOM CAPS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
• Stuff one escargot into each mushroom cap.
• Arrange caps on an escargot dish, one to each indentation.
• In a small sauté pan heat 1 tablespoon butter over medium-high heat.
• Cook shallots and garlic until softened and beginning to caramelize.
• Using a teaspoon drizzle shallot butter into each mushroom cap.
• Sprinkle with 1 tablespoon flat leaf parsley.
• Cover mushrooms with parmesan and gruyere.
• Bake for 20 minutes or until cheese is completely melted and browned in spots.
• Sprinkle with remaining parsley and grate fresh nutmeg over top.
• Serve immediately with slices of crusty baguette.

ESCARGOT MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Over medium heat in a medium saucepan, heat butter and garlic. Place the snails in the saucepan and slowly cook until tender, about 5 minutes.
• Remove and discard mushroom stems. Fill the mushroom caps with 1/2 teaspoon melted butter with garlic from the saucepan. Microwave 2 to 3 minutes. Insert the snails in the mushroom caps. Microwave another 3 minutes.

ESCARGOT STUFFED MUSHROOM CAPS

Steps:

• Wash mushrooms and remove stems (I put the stems in salads or sauté them for steaks, etc).
• Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and lightly oil the foil (I use an oil sprayer).
• Arrange the mushroom caps tightly together,hollow side up on the foil.
• Stuff each cap with the escargot. Some caps will be able to hold more than one.
• Cover everything with the shredded cheese.
• Bake at 325 for approx 20 minute or until the cheese has fully melted and the mushrooms and escargot are completely heated through. (The less time you cook these the juicier they are, so I tend to cook them a bit longer).
• Enjoy! Think about the subtleties in the taste when you try your first ones.

FRENCH ESCARGOT-STUFFED MUSHROOMS

• Arrange the mushrooms in a shallow baking dish.
• Bake them for 15 minutes and serve hot. Enjoy!
