Mushroom Crab Tart
- 1 whole Phyllo Puff Pastry Sheet (You Can Also Use Pie Dough)
- 1 whole Small Onion, Chopped Finely
- 1 teaspoon Fresh Minced Garlic
- 1 pint Fresh Mushrooms, Chopped Finely
- 4 ounces, weight Diced Pancetta (You Can Use Bacon)
- 1 container (8 Oz. Container) Fresh Crab, Shredded
- 1 package (8 Oz. Package) Shredded Cheese
- 1/2 cups Sour Cream
- 1/2 teaspoons Salt
- 1/2 teaspoons Pepper
- 1/2 teaspoons Sweet Basil
- 1/2 cups Parmesan Cheese
- Lay out the pastry sheet on a parchment-paper-lined cookie sheet.
- Build up the sides a little just to hold in the filling.
- With a fork, pierce pastry all over so it doesnt fluff up too much when baking.
- Put in the oven to bake but take it out when it just starts to brown.
- Set aside.
- Saute garlic and onions in 1 teaspoon of olive oil.
- Once tender, add the mushrooms and saute until all liquid is evaporated, about 8 minutes.
- Remove from the skillet and place in a bowl to cool.
- Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 350 degrees .
- Cook the pancetta in a small saute pan over medium heat until golden and crisp, about 4 minutes.
- Remove the pancetta using a slotted spoon and add to the bowl with the mushrooms.
- Go through the crab to make sure there are no shell pieces and add to the mushroom bowl.
- Add the shredded cheese and salt, pepper, basil and sour cream.
- Taste and add what you like.
- I added a dash of Tony Chacheres seasoning.
- Transfer filling to the waiting pastry and bake until pastry is golden brown and filling is warm!
- Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.
- Using a pizza cutter, I cut the tart into appetizer-sized squares.
- I even had about a cupful of filling left over; I put it in a bowl and served it as a dip with crackers.
