Ingredients

48

(1 1/2 to 2-inch) fresh whole mushrooms, washed, stems removed

2

garlic cloves, minced

2 1/4

cups water

1

(15-oz.) bottle teriyaki sauce

1/3

cup chopped imitation crabmeat (surimi)

1/3

cup chopped water chestnuts

1

tablespoon chopped fresh chives

Preparation

Remove stems from mushrooms; discard or reserve for a future use.

In Dutch oven, combine mushroom caps, garlic, water and teriyaki sauce. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to low; cover and simmer 15 to 20 minutes or until mushrooms are thoroughly cooked, stirring occasionally.

Drain mushrooms; place on paper towels to dry. Cool about 15 minutes or until completely cooled.

Meanwhile, in medium bowl, combine imitation crabmeat and water chestnuts; mix well.

Fill each mushroom cap with about 1/2 teaspoon crabmeat mixture. Sprinkle each with chives. Serve immediately, or cover and refrigerate until serving time.
